Call Your Shots - 2026 Assistant Coaches

OC - Dana Holgorsen — Moves on. Takes small school HC job

DL - Terry Bradden - fired

OLB - Phil Simpson - fired
DB - Addison Williams - retained
That’d be chaos
 
Donnie is getting fired. There is absolutely no way he can continue working here with what Dom has done.
I can’t imagine he’s too happy with Dom about this. A school might throw some money at Dayton in a package, but they aren’t hiring an OL coach to get Dylan.
 
It just provides an off season of false hope and keep the pressure off the HC and AD.
Was it actually the AD’s decision to give Rhule the extension or was it more on some certain boosters? Rhule is still Turd’s hire, so I’m guessing the AD doesn’t have a ton of pressure on him. Last night was maybe the first game I ever rooted for Texas since Turd is at A$M.
 
When you have to keep whacking assistant coaches it’s a formality the head coach isn’t far off from being gone.

4 current assistants from his original staff remain; Raiola, Satt, Berthal, Dvoracek.

1 promoted from quality control; Simpson

3 different coordinators in 3 seasons; White-Butler, Satt-Holgo, Foley-Ekeler

I talked to Dana personally last night. He just bought the condo next to Rhule’s in Lincoln. He’s definitely not going anywhere

It's not what needs to happen but this is the most likely scenario. Unless someone leaves on their own.
