LeVar to Michigan State





Some of you guys are like Charlie Brown letting Lucy tee up the ball again.
And some of you get mad for no reason. I didn't claim anything, I didn't claim to know about Woods.

I could understand you getting mad if I "claimed" something or insinuated something, but all I said was literally "hmmmmmmmm..." and "hehe."

You're mad if I claim something, and mad if I don't. What can I do to help?
 


I'm not mad about anything. Just appears that you are trying to be a tad coy about your earlier claims and that somehow it is related to this. And your earlier claims wouldn't seem to add up here.
 


It also got me wondering what other assistants might end up there. Kelvin Bell seems like one of the most coveted - maybe he is restless.

I had mentioned Bri as an O-line coach there after Fitz got hired.

But what about any Giants' assistants? That staff is fired. The other two Ferentz boys work there, as does Ladell.

"Mad"? Chuckling at something is not mad.

I think it's a possible scenario that Beth/KF have had conversations with Levar that if he is interested in becoming a head coach it would be beneficial for him to go to other places and learn. It's not like Kirk stayed in one place and in fact it is really common in coaching to move around. Woods has actually been outside the norm for staying on one place for so long.

As for favoritism with Wallace I have no inside information or have not been involved with any of those conversations. Maybe this is as far as Wallace is wanting to go in terms of coaching ranks. Maybe this will set Levar apart from Wallace? Levar has had a chance to leave before as had Wallace so we don't know what has been discussed in their private meetings.
As far as coaches go, Ferentz really hasn't been to that many places and only as a head coach at Maine & Iowa. He is the anomaly as far as coaches go, IMO.

He was at the Browns and Baltimore as well even though it was the same organization as well as Pitt early on. So he has moved and also moved to experience the professional ranks while not a head coach he still got the experience and setup those relationships. Coaching is a crazy profession especially at the higher ranks. Lots of nuances that we cannot see or are known to us
 


Gosh this sucks, LaVar is a dang good recruiter and coach. I hope a bunch of recruits don't follow him to MSU. I am happy for LaVar, I've met LaVar a couple of times he's a very nice guy and he does deserve this.
 


It makes sense. It makes all the sense frankly. Being able to put that associate HC title on his resume and triple his salary I'm guessing shoulda made this an easier decision then what's been lead on. Staying in the BIG coaching with Fitz shouldn't be any kind of major cultural transition of any kind. If things go well there for him and say KF stays coaching for another couple yrs he could put himself squarely in position to be on the short list to replace him.

What Beth decides to do when that happens will be fascinating. I don't foresee her pulling a Pollard and having KFs replacement all figured out within a day of KF stepping down. That'd be nuts

Interestingly enough Mason he said is going to stay with Iowa. That's pretty cool I wouldn't have guessed that. I'm sure KF and Hodge couldn't be happier to keep him.
