Bennett shuffles SMU football coaching staff
Two new faces added; defensive coaches change duties
01/30/2003
By RICK ALONZO / The Dallas Morning News
UNIVERSITY PARK – SMU football coach Phil Bennett said Wednesday he has hired two assistants and restructured several positions on his defensive staff.
Bennett hired former Southwest Texas offensive coordinator Blake Miller as his offensive line coach. Miller was the offensive line coach at Southwest Texas before taking over as offensive coordinator last season. He replaces Bob Stanley, who left for Kansas State.
Darrell Patterson, who coached linebackers at Baylor for one season under former coach Kevin Steele, will take over the same position at SMU. Patterson was hired to replace defensive ends coach Oscar Giles, who is now at Houston. Giles wanted to coach linebackers at SMU, but his lack of experience hurt him and he wasn't offered the job.
Bennett said defensive coordinator Jim Gush will move off linebackers and coach the secondary. He said Gush's responsibilities as a coordinator mean he needs to coach the secondary, and that move prompted the changes in the staff's responsibilities.
Eric Roark, who had coached the secondary, will coach defensive ends in addition to his duties with the special teams.
"I knew at midseason we needed tweaking," Bennett said of his first year at SMU. "It's just like a company trying to maximize its potential. They're all good coaches, it's just getting the right fit."
Bennett coached Patterson at TCU, where his career total of 544 tackles is a school record. Patterson played linebacker for the Horned Frogs from 1979-82.

Posted: Thu Jan 30, 2003 3:38 amKharylake appears to be somewhat level-headed in reading some of the quotes of his comments to the press. I hope that he can see through the obvious in all of this sudden attention being aimed at him from Colorado and OU.
Colorado lost Corey Clark from Smithson Valley who decommitted to Colorado and committed to A&M. Joe Thomas officially eliminated Colorado two days ago, and Ryan Schuler, who Colorado hoped to steal from OU committed to Nebraska today.
And, when Schuler decommitted from OU and committed to Nebraska, suddenly Khary gets an offer out of the blue from OU.
Khary, wise up, Bud! All of this sudden attention from Colorado and OU is flattering, but these guys weren't giving you the time of day before all of these switches in the guys they really wanted started happening. They're using you as a pawn. You've known all along that SMU really wants you and that you'll truly fit in to SMU's program. Go with your initial gut feelings and don't be swayed by this last minute chess-game where Colorado, OU, and Nebraska are picking on each other's recruiting classes and using you as a tool to do it. Blow off the visit to Boulder, and call Coach Bennett and tell him you're going to be a Mustang!
GO MUSTANGS!!

Posted: Thu Jan 30, 2003 9:50 amI am afraid Kharylake will commit to CU. The loss of Coach Stanley and the decommits at CU were killers. Also, the late announcement of Blake Miller as Stanley's replacement didn't help.
