  • Willie's wife is the principal at my sons' school. He is from the town where we live. She was saying that Coach Street and his wife are best friends with the Simmons and they vacation together every year, so the Marshall connection is there. I'm sitting here in the car pickup line... if she's out here I'll see what I can find out. 🤣

  • He?s a proven winner. I?d love for us to get him, but he?s probably in line for a P5 job.

    George would bring positive pub to a program needing it.  Plus ability to get a good staff

    He?s been at FAMU for 7 years. He used to coach (5 years) at MTSU. I heard from some of their fans that his name was thrown around but they went a different direction.

    I think it would definitely be worth a call.

    As far as Eddie George, I?ll take the guy with a longer track record of success if I have an option.
