Ekeler not being retained?

[BDP!]

Anyone else hearing this?

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

I know he has to renew his contract, that’s if offered. I think we all agree there’s others we would rather replace.

 

[Special Ed]

I believe none of what I hear and half of what I see.

 

[driscokid]

Oh

Laughable if there’s any truth to this. He’s one of 4 position coaches who should have ironclad job security at this point, the others being Garner, Inge, and Sims.

If Heupel fires Ek while keeping Pope and his buddies Halzle and Ellarbee, he’ll have lost a lot of my respect.

Assistant coaching quality is one of the most misunderstood facets of CFB that fans really are quite clueless about.

 

[Jackcrevol]

Id look to see Eck here for a long time.

Also Banks is on the road recruiting.

Why would you not put banks on your list? Having a top defense doesn't give job security?

 

[TJSVOLS]

Yeah it was the running backs that sucked? Ok.

He doesn’t coach running backs

He’s not a great recruiter. We could upgrade

 

[NighthawkVol]

Look at the Edge’s we’ve signed under Heupel. He recruited them.

It is without a doubt the most ridiculous offseason discussion every year.

I would want to understand why. Honestly I would think Heupel would lean towards Banks’ discretion on this unless there was some huge issue personally with him.

 

[DaddyChad]

Chop has to eventually have a spot regardless.

 

[DeerPark12]

Anyone else hearing this?

His daughter is selling a some of his gear on Facebook, apparently. Seems to be where the rumor started.

 

[American_PitVol]

He’s my favorite Assistant Coach. Hope we keep him. He brings the fire

 

[Volizona]

Isn’t Ekeler the special teams coach Tony V tries to tackle every times he sees him? He’s the guy who has Red Bull energy levels 24-7, right? I thought the players loved him.

 

[Boston Vol]

Chop has to eventually have a spot regardless.

Willie Martinez retires, allowing Banks to take over all DBs not just safeties. Then make Ekeler the special teams coach exclusively, opening the OLBs role, which is given to Harbin.

 

[JacketVol]

Look at the Edge’s we’ve signed under Heupel. He recruited them.

Nope

Recruits Edge guys

He’s a good Twitter poster.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

He’s a good Twitter poster.

He is a good coach

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Nope

Really? Who recruited Pearce? Christian Gass?

 

[Vol in Buckeye Land]

Is Banks a “position coach”?
