Sign of a good program. Your position coaches go on to take coordinator positions at other universities.

Congratulations to Coach Oliver!
I guess that Southern saw what a real defense looks like while watching the Celebration Bowl game, huh?

can’t be mad at a dude for taking a promotion and most likely a higher paying job. besides, that’ll be one less central grad on our staff which is absolutely fine with me. i guess that may be what gave him an advantage to earn the job since odums is also a central alum...

Southern head coach Odums fired three of his defensive assistants & also lost another assistant via resignation to take a coordinator job at Jackson State.

Coach Oliver knows DBs and LBs like the back of his hand. If he can match up with a very good DL coach... he can turn Southern's defense around relatively quickly. |

welp, i believe that only leaves one more central alum on our staff. i always wondered what it must feel like being a central alum but coaching for your archrivals. not so much when he’s coaching against schools other than nccu, but i wonder what must be going thru his head when we play central. i know for me, i’d have a very difficult time coaching against a&t if i was on central’s staff.
i dunno, maybe its different when your salary depends on it. i could see coaching for central against other schools if that was my job. but from the outside looking in, i just think i’d have a very hard time switching my loyalties to the other side if i had to coach against a&t...

Well clearly we lost a good talent evaluator, Oliver is the guy who insisted Broadway go see Cohen in person leading to his only D1 football scholarship offer. Congrats sir

Didn't seem to bother Hayes. |

Didn't seem to bother Hayes. in my opinion, that’s absolutely true. hail, and if i didn’t know any better, i’d go so far to say that hayes actually craved beating central seemingly as much as we did. i never quite understood where his fire came from to beat central, but obviously i was glad he had it. heck, i can’t speak for nobody else, but i’m too much of a “loyalist” to have the same attitude hayes had when he played against his alma mater... |

Me too.
Unless my alma mater was central.
There was an interview that thrilla did with Hayes some years back where he asked him about that. I'll see if I can find it and post the link...
