[Toe]

Sooo, if you liked the Kehres idea, how about Rob Aurich? Sounds like he might get a look. San Diego State DC. They #7 in total defense, #5 in scoring defense, #21 in rushing defense, #5 in passing defense, and tied for #1 in opponent red zone conversions (we're #135 in that stat).

I'm not over excited here, but I will give him a chance! Any idea how he is as a recruiter?

Reunited with Marshall. Also Coached LB Alexander that I think we were close to landing in the portal a few cycles ago but ended up at UCF then Washington.

We have a billion people on the staff. We have plenty of people that can point a finger at a guy and post it on X. If he can coach defense I’ll take that.
