Yes this may look “meh” on the surface, but let it play out. Oh yeah, I know. Memphis plays aggressively, can get a bunch of picks but will also give up big plays was what I was pointing out. I like him being a Mississippi native as it is gonna be a recruiting area we may soon need to target more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This move could potentially land us many more!!! I would of been fine with either honestly though. We desperately need some better recruiters now on offense. Kodi is having a good year over there but everyone else has underwhelmed. Our best recruiters are clearly on defense. I don’t know anything about Woodson so I’ll reserve judgement on the hire. What I do know is Sheldon Felton would be a huge plus factor to coaches and recruits in Georgia. It’s not just about 1 recruit either, the guy would create a serious problem for the UGA staff in all of south GA and inside of I-285. Outside of Dell McGee there’s not a former GA HS coach that could recruit the state better and still get it done coaching on-field. Oh well.

That is what we desperately need. Maybe Woodson was hired as greg browns replacement and we can still hire shelton felton eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auburn2Eugene 2,317 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 27 minutes ago, Maverick.AU said: His secondary has 32 interceptions in the last 2 seasons. The real question is, can he coach Special Teams? Lol Ain't that the truth... I don't know anything about this guy, so I will hold reservations about him until we see how he recruits and develops talent. It is IMMENSELY disappointing we didn't get someone who has a clue how to coach special teams. I love me some Horton as a RB coach, but he was...well... underwhelming this season as a special teams coach. And that's the nice way to put it.

He is a good talent developer that will take the corners which will allow Brown(a very good talent developer) to focus solely on the safety position which will need that focus next year Just curious. Is that where you would use your 10th coach? Me personally, I want one coach coaching the entire secondary. To me it helps keep corners and safety’s on the same page. But I know you know how the secondary works so wanted to hear your opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you’re right, but the real concern in ST is in covering the KOs and punts rather than in the kicking part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR 2,438 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 I know nothing about Woodson. But there was so much talk that wasn't shot down about Felton coming to AU I tended to believe it was true. Is that still a possibility to happen or was that talk really just not true? That would be the 2nd time he has been heavily rumored to be headed to AU, the first being after signing day last year as an analyst. Just seems kinda strange?

The Plainsman 948 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 The more I thnk about this hire,. The more I like it. When Brown was hired,. My only concern was could he recruit.. I hope Woodson can recruit and if so,. We should be able to maintain a solid DB line up. Who are some recruits in MS we should be looking at?
