How is player at Ole Miss / grad. assistant at Ole Miss / outside linebackers coach at North Greenville / linebackers coach, then d.c. at Delta State / and, two years as linebackers coach at LA Tech a "heck of a pedigree" ?? Help me out. I must be missing something here ??
So an LB coming from juco or grad transfer, both who have been playing LB for several years, needs a position coach from Delta State.
FWIW, our LBs were better last year. Talent wise not coach wise.
We shoulda had him under contract.
It sure would be nice if we could go get Jeff Koontz back to Tech from UNT as our LB Coach.

Yeah, I liked Coach Koonz..dont know if he is a good coach or not...leave that to others...and as soon as we up that position salary to about $115,000 or more to start maybe we'll get a gem
Well, we are pretty close to that now. https://www.shreveporttimes.com/stor...ants/80451038/
That article is a little outdated.
Goethie was the lowest on the totem pole at Tech, our only assistant coach making less than 6 figures. His base was $85K. I'm sure he got some of his $7,083 max bonus, too.
Koonz is making $145K at UNT. He's the highest paid non-coordinator assistant coach at UNT.
Koonz was excellent at Tech. There's a reason he gets compensated at that level. What's Eggen doing now? He was another good one imo.
Have you considered those Dogs?
Alrighty then! If I was looking at former athletes, I'd consider Eric Shaw (inspiring story) or Barry Robertson.

One more note on Goethie... He played at Ole Miss for Cutcliffe, who is now the coach at Duke.
Scott Stoker is the LB coach at ULM. He's been Def Coord at UTEP and HC at his alma mater NSU. He can certainly recruit LA and TX. I would consider him if he was interested in the job.
