"He has no agenda other than being an offensive line coach. He just wants to be an offensive line coach and get them to play the best they can.”

To me, Spack is alluding to the last coach who held that position pushing to be more than an OLine guy. Could refer to the disconnect between Dicken and Clark as co-OCs. I like the hire. Here's to getting a strong DC to take us to the next level!

Didn't Spack make the decision though to name his OL coach an offensive coordinator? To me, if he wants his OL coach to focus on the OL, then don't name him OC or co-OC. Same with if he wants a QB coach to focus only on the QBs rather than also being OC.
I like this hire as well. He's someone who could be here a while as, he could have 10 years in the university retirement system if he didn't cash out when he went to Army (9 at ISU, 1 at NIU). This could be an opportunity to build onto a pension for retirement. As someone who has been coaching for 35 years, I don't see him looking for that HC slot.
