Gaby new update on DE Coach:
-Here’s what I know on that situation. A few guys interviewed for the vacancy on Friday. One was Eastern Kentucky’s defensive line coach Jeremy Hawkins, who was an assistant director of player personnel at LSU in 2018 and also spent three years in personnel at UAB.
Another name I know interviewed was FAMU co-defensive coordinator Ryan Smith. He was a QC at Alabama in 2015 I believe. He also spent time on Florida’s staff in a personnel role.
The last name I heard that sat down with Crisotbal on Friday was FAU’s Kevin Patrick, who is a former UM All-American that won a pair of national titles at Miami. He coached up first rounders like Jason Pierre Paul at USF and Bradley Chubb at NC State.
I’m not certain those are the only names involved but they are a few who had a chance to present themselves essentially a week before spring practice starts.
I do think Kevin Patrick could be a strong candidate to potentially land the job but nothing I’ve heard has led to me to believe that’s finished yet. I’ve have also heard that this is a job Patrick has wanted for a long time because he truly loves the school. If he is offered the job I’d assume it would be tough to turn down.
