Coaching Staff update

[MTK]

Coaches have to start somewhere, so why not McCardell who was a pro's pro at WR during his playing days? His lack of direct experience doesn't bother me all that much. Like some have said, we seem to have a nice mix on experience on the staff.

Agree, I don't no to much about his history but i figure he's probably played for MS or MS has always liked him as a player. I'm in a wait and see mode on all our coaches. HTTR.

Agreed. McCardell is a high-character guy who played the game at a high level. He was a very polished WR for a long time. Clearly he enjoys teaching now that he can no longer play. I like the hire a lot actually.

Hey, it's not like we hired a head coach who had never been anything but a quarterback's coach.

What I think I like best about McCardell coming in is he played for a long time and obviously had to change his game over time to harness experience running routes/creating separation over pure physical ability (as a younger WR). He should be a wealth of knowledge for our younger guys...I like this move more and more.

...oh yeah and he's NOT Stan Hixon
