Another name to consider is Kevin Curtis: https://smumustangs.com/sports/football/roster/coaches/kevin-curtis/5320
He’s the current CB’s coach for SMU, he’s originally from Lubbock TX & played Safety at Texas Tech.
He started out coaching at Navarro College, then got hired as CB’s coach at LA Tech by Sonny Dykes when Dykes was at LA Tech, he then got hired at TTech during Kliff Kingsbury tenure as a local Lubbock coach there, then after 2 years at TTech got re-hired at LA Tech under Skip Holtz & was CB’s coach alongside Baker at LA Tech for 2 years, he then followed Dykes over to SMU & was there with Lashlee in 2018.
He’s a local Lubbock guy & played at TTech for 2 years of Sonny Dykes’s tenure as WR’s coach there under Mike Leach in the early 00’s. I doubt he would leave Texas, but given that he’s coached with Baker & is familiar with Lashlee as well I’m sure he’s someone that will at least be discussed in the event we miss on other CB’s coaches.
He’s actually a very good recruiter, during his tenure at TTech he signed QB Jett Duffey (Mansfield TX), WR Keke Coutee (who’s a current speedster for the Texans, if you’ve watched any Texans games in the last couple years who know who he is), LB Jordyn Brooks (from Houston) who just got drafted in the 1st round of the 2020 draft to Seahawks & actually has 24 recruits he’s signed under his belt with 19 of them with him as the Primary recruiter.
He also coached up CB Amik Robertson his TF season at LA Tech.
And just this class at SMU flipped a 4-star Safety out of Dallas from Baylor.
He’s a very skilled recruiter & is another highly plugged in guy in Texas with signings from multiple top schools in Houston & Dallas, he also recruited Louisiana & got Kevin Moore from Acadiana (which is one of the best schools in Lafayette).
