What are the responsibility of a Quality Control Coach?

Assume we are referring to Graham Harrell from UNT? It sounds like that was his dream place: https://247sports.com/Article/Graham-Ha ... --52871798

I see he's from Tech so maybe moving to Dykes with the assumption of moving to Tech in 3 years would get him over here.

Duane Akina from Stanford. I don't know if he would leave that job especially being around 58-59 for a defensive coordinator. Maybe I'm wrong but I feel that would be a stretch. However if we did, sounds like it would be a good hire.

Tony Franklin was the OC for Dykes at Cal and Latech and is currently the OC at Middle Tennessee. Maybe a name to keep an eye on for OC. The Middle Tennessee HC's son is the current QB and is graduating. They do not have a great replacement lined up so Franklin might see it as an opportunity to bolt.

I think the guy was responsible for controlling quality, but I'm waiting for confirmation from my source.

Probably a nicer way to say: Game Prep Coach (Statistical analysis preferred).

[JasonB]

The experience level of these coaches indicates an increase in the budget available for assistants than when Morris was hiring his staff...

[SMU_Alum11]

If that's true, it's probably more of a result that Dykes wasn't given the $2.2m salary. Perhaps he got $1.5m and that freed up $700k for assistants. We really need to get a top recruiter above everything.

[Stallion]

Correction: Need 8 good recruiters

Yes, please!

He's done wonders with Fine.

It makes sense since they both have ties to Texas Tech-Sonny Dykes was Offensive Coordinator in Harrell's first year as a starter--even new DB Coach Trey Haverty was a Senior in Harrell's true freshman year

As a member of the PirateΓÇÖs coaching tree, he has contacts with guys at Tech, Texas, TAMU, and TCU. His guys are going to have years of experience searching for talent at Texas high schools.

From what I have seen, I expect his DC to have B12 experience.
