Don't forget the Bears academics ended up in the toilet...and their 'jock majors' like recreation management.

"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.

I was thinking the same thing.

Every school has athletes in easy majors, don't kid yourself.

Not many colleges have had 2 African American ADs, 2 interim female ADs, a female Chancellor and more. TT had a golden opportunity and misplayed his hand. His moves should't handcuff ICA.

But I did think every school tried to land one Polynesian coach.

Thanks SocherField, I hate to be alone in laughing at my jokes, that's not a good sign.

I didn't't get it last night. But did today. .. slow here.

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

I'm liking the staff that Hawkins has put together. Good mix of youth and experience. This all has me excited for Aggie football again!

For those who don't want to go to different pages to see the info, the finalized coaching staff is...

Head Coach - Dan Hawkins
Assistant Head Coach and Running Backs - Mark Speckman
Defensive Coordinator - Robert Tucker
Offensive Coordinator and Quarterbacks - Tim Plough
Defensive Line - David Braun
Outside Linebackers - Jerry Brady
Inside Linebackers - Isaiah Jackson
Defensive Backs - Cha'pelle Brown
Offensive Line - Time Keane
Wide Receivers - Burl Toler III
Tight Ends and Recruiting Coordinator - Paul Creighton

Coach Bios and player roster updated.

I noticed off the roster are Justin Garza, our long snapper, and backup M. Slade. Is Garza really gone?

http://www.ucdavisaggies.com/sports/m-footbl/mtt/ucda-m-footbl-mtt.html

We still have a LS in Grant Hilton. Came in the same year as Garza and has been the starter I believe.

Troy Taylor new OC / QB coach at Utah.

I was just going to type that in. Success at the FCS level usually means turnover, when we start winning get ready for a bit of a purge.

I think our top 3 are tight. Speckman from Cali.

CA Forever, thanks for the update on coaching staff!...Much appreciated

Worrying about losing coaches when we win is hysterical! I think you can get a pill to cure that :)

Our former RB Coach, Jim Chapin, has been hired as the University of Sioux Falls Offensive Coordinator. Congratulations Coach!

Congrats. D3?

Interesting article about Burl Toler III's family legacy ties to the famous 1951 USF football team:

Bryant Haines has been hired as Elon University's LB coach

It looks like we have a new addition to the coaching staff. Brandon Huppert from the University of Washington will be coaching D line. Is Coach Braun leaving?

Nice catch. A former UW walk on who earned a scholarship, tore an ACL, and played primarily on special teams. Has spent 4 years as a quality control coach on D.

McCann is headed to Idaho State.

Good pick up for ISU. I think he did well with our guys.

Didn't't he find Doss?

Good luck to Coach McCann. He always seemed to have a great relationship with his players. Guess the Aggies will be going up against him in the future.

Coach Braun is moving on to Northern Iowa

https://twitter.com/Coach_Braun/status/846710417078599680

Update> The school has announced that Rob Phenicie will return as head coach. Phenicie, who had recently been promoted to offensive coordinator, had just days ago left the program to join the staff at Northern Iowa. In making the announcement, ISU stated it as Coach Kramer has “retired effective immediately”.
