And btw, i think we are going to see multiple formations with the wildcat and fly inside to 10.

Partials plus they were able to provide grant money to needy recruits to make up the difference, so some of the money did not come out of the scholarship kitty. Very exciting evening tonight with the chancellor in attendance. I really enjoyed visiting with Hawk and Mark Speckman. Both are down to earth and excited to be here. Tremendous energy. Go Ags!

see you there Mike. I think my wife is going as well.

Anybody going to the football preview reception Wednesday night?

"Join UC Davis Head Football Coach Dan Hawkins as he previews the 2017 Aggie season and recruiting class."

I plan to attend. This is an inaugural event. Should be interesting.

Last minute was exciting. Got to love college bball!

My late father in law was the chief of police at a major university in Socal. He knew most of the football players well, unfortunately for the wrong reasons. The majority of them did not graduate, but received a certificate of attendance. I wonder what the graduation rate is for bama players.

Toller rounds out Hawks assistants as wide receiver coach: http://www.ucdavisaggies.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/010117aab.html

"Also, while perusing the UC Davis Athletics webpages, I couldn't help but notice a conspicuous absence of diversity among athletic administrators. "

From my angle, while i see great strides in diversity amoungst admins across campus, let's bring in the best talent without worrying whether we need to check the box for an irishman, hispanic, african-american, or any other demographic group. And the same goes for our student athletes.

Wow, that kid has speed and the moves.

I wonder what the stats look like on the forum, this year compared to last during this time of year, in terms of total posts and new posters. The anticipation of how games will be managed with the talent and that opening kick off has me excited, it appears I'm not alone. Go Ags

Not worth it.

+1

And beyond that, he's going to have some high profile coaching colleauges on the field with him. If he was kicking field goals when we're down by 3 TDs, or running up the middle play after play when its being stopped repeatedly, there's going to be some discussion. Hawk does not accept mediocre performance. I dont think he will be befuddled :).

Just watched the video. He certainly knows the big sky. As i watched it, i wondered about what kind of competition we are going to have for the QB position? Hawk is bringing in a combo of seasoned pros and youth. I think the players will easily identify with a guy like Plough. I like whast i see.

• Coming off one of the most successful offensive seasons in school history where NAU changed its offense to a pro style/no-huddle philosophy, Plough coached quarterback Case Cookus to FCS STATS Freshman Player of the Year honors, in addition to winning the Jerry Rice Award and other numerous All-American accolades. Cookus broke an 11-year old NCAA FCS freshman record for most touchdown passes in a season; including setting a new school record. He had the fewest interceptions in the FCS by any quarterback with 3,000 or more passing yards.

• During Plough’s first year as offensive coordinator, NAU had the 11th best offense in the FCS. The Lumberjacks ranked first in team passing efficiency (180.18), seventh in scoring offense (39.3), eighth in passing offense, and eighth in red zone offense (89.8).

Sounds good to me!

Still no new job for Coach Gould? — movielover

His Twitter page has been fairly quiet. After that one article in Scout about him going to Fresno, I haven't heard anything new.

Someone mentioned the assistance have contracts that expire at year end, so — goaggs1

If it is true that donations are covering the expense of the new hires, maybe they are going to just let the original assistants work out their contracts and help smooth transition(?).

I'm thinking that's a solid no — CA Forever

Yep, got it!
