I know that he just got a job as Defensive Coordinator with the Florida Gators. But him and Gailey coached together in Dallas. It also makes some sense as to why we are waiting until after recruiting is over. Losing their new DC would really piss off some recruits for the Gators. It would be really bad if this leaked out before recruiting was over. I have no sources or anything, it's just a guess.

Recruits would be more pissed over Meyer then the D coordinator leaving...

He just became the DC at Florida when Strong left, why would he leave the Gators?

I was also thinking about that one. It makes a lot of sense. He knew Buddy Nix from San Diego and we already brought back DeHaven, why not Teddy too? Plus I heard that he's been replaced as Head Coach of the NY Sentinals by Chris Palmer.

That's true. But this DC was hired 2 weeks ago. I'm sure some people would be upset with him leaving after telling them how much he liked it in Florida and recruiting them...

If it was Ted Cottrell why wait to announce him as DC?

He's friends with Chan Gailey. Plus he might want to get back in the NFL and would make more money? :idunno:

I think it would be a very good hire. But only if we switched to the 3-4. He was much better with the Bills and Chargers in a 3-4 than he was with the Jets in a 4-3.

Mikey, I think you are right. After Gailey was hired, ESPN Insider had a link to possible hires. He was one along wityh the OC from San Diego (Shelmon) and Jim Jeffcoat. I have no ESPN Insider access or link but that was on the ESPN Insider page a day after Gailey was hired.

If only I had a source, then I would be golden! But it was just a guess, based on his prior experience with Gailey.

Great call, Mikey. Man, you are like a internet digging machine. Major props. You found out about the LB coach first too but snooping a Georgia Tech forum i remember. lol

Pat Moran could learn a thing or two from you.

Thanks! That's all you gotta do if you wanna figure these things out. Connect the dots. Most head coaches always hire someone they with before and are familiar with. And it was taking a while, so I figured it was a college coach. When I noticed that George Edwards worked under Gailey before, I figured it was him!

You should appear on Coach Sal's show.

Yeah, that's what threw me off and had me rethinking myself for a few days, but my gut feeling overall was that he was the perfect fit. I'm wondering if he talked to Meyer and told him right when Gailey became the head coach that he wanted to work for him. Then it was agreed for them all to keep it quiet....
