DL Coach Hawt Board v2.0

@pavelkasuncle has been pretty ahead of the game on this. I’d imagine right now the plan is Okam doesn’t necessarily mean Okam will accept an offer…
List of names I'd be watching
Frank Okam - AST DL @ Texans (Rhule connection via Baylor)
Bo Davis - DL @ Saints (Past time at LSU, Texas, Bama, was at UTSA when Rhule was at Baylor)
Lou Esposito - DL @ Michigan (UM is a mess. Has never truly left Great Lakes area though)
Deion Barnes - DL @ Penn St (Campbell hasn't retained him yet)
David Lose - Been with Aurich at two stops so has to be considered. Probably a little underwhelming hire & telling that he wasn't an instant hire like Roy Manning (EDGE)

Guys you should probably call & get a no from
Eric Henderson - DL/Co-DC @ USC
Kenny Baker - DL @ Texas
Chidera Uzo-Diribe - OLB @ Georgia (would need to come with a Co-DC tag likely)
Al Washington - DL @ Notre Dame (contingent on Freeman leaving to NFL only)

Off-the-radar names
Harland Barnes - DL @ Duke
Jim Panagos - DL @ Kansas

Profiles of guys we know interviewed
Elijah Robinson - Elite Recruiter/DL Coach
Vontrell King Williams - Elite Recruiter/Young & Only 2 years experience leading a room

Okam would be a pass to me.
Barnes is staying at Penn State


I would think if it was the SDSU coach, it would’ve happened by now.
waiting til after the SDSU bowl for Lose I think is the move atm

“We had coaches beating down the door to coach DL at Nebraska. Big names. But ultimately Coach Lose proved to be the best of the bunch, and it wasn’t close.”

“The advanced analytics we used said Coach Lose was top 5 in dual derivative gap quasi-pressures. It’s only a matter of time before the rest of CFB sees what they missed out on.”

“I know there were reports out there, but we zeroed in on Coach Lose very early in this process. We never formally offered anyone else.”
 
One of these 2 would certainly help with TX recruiting:

So given the earlier targets, which of the above guys would be categorized as elite recruiters?
