Any word on who Laird will bring and/or keep from current staff?
Really interested in these moves.

Per footballscoop.com Coach Laird is cleaning house completely.

Brad Laird has hired former Demon coach Brad Smiley as Offensive Coordinator...who was on staff back in the late 90's with Sam Goodwin. He's been HC at TVCC the past decade. I like that he brings HC experience as a coordinator.
I hate to see anyone lose their job but cleaning house may have been necessary given the results the past decade.

Really good hire in Smiley. I'm really getting excited by Laird. Seems to have a very solid and vision in place regarding where he wants to take the program.

I loved the way Brad made it known that this is a team effort. The scheduling and subsequent rescheduling of 5 a.m. team meetings until everyone was present was a good way to show that this team won't function without everyone's cooperation. He is already showing that things are going to be different.

I feel good about Laird...we’ve all been excited in the past with peveto and Thomas, so it’s hard not to be cautious. But there’s hope.

Heard today that Lockett is staying. Also, that Bowen may be staying as well. Manley and Weaver are gone.

Why haven’t we heard of a DC? We can not have what Peveto did where he is HC/DC!
