Happy with this hire for sure
Coached a highly productive position group at Texas he's got studs to coach here now at same spot and had a good bit in involvement over the overall defensive operations. Young guy with upward mobility coming from a elite P5 school and opportunity to make a name for himself at another P5 school similar to Faulkner.

I assume that he is a pretty good recruiter with elite Texas connections.

And, I'm guessing, enough sizzle to intrigue our current defensive roster to hit the pause button on the Portal.

I trust Key’s hiring 100%. He has been perfect in his hiring and quick firings of poor performers. But why are we excited about this hire? I just don’t know who he is and am asking so I know why I’m talking shit later to my uga brother.
