re: Have any of you heard of the guys DeBoer is hiring, prior to this week?

Most of them had worked at either big time programs in the past or the NFL or both.

Cool.

Maurice Linquist, who will presumably be the defensive backs coach at Alabama, has been a DB coach in the NFL.

Kane Wommack is not as well-known, and I admit that, but that doesn’t change that he has done some good things in his career.

Lmao…out of all of those, the only person who you would not have to google, at the time they were hired, is Mel Tucker and the only reason for that is that he has worked for Saban. All of them were pretty much nobodies. In fact, I recall Bama fans being concerned about Saban naming some obscure guy named Kirby Smart DC whose only DC experience was a season at Valdosta st.
