New WR coach
footballscoop: We have learned that former Washington State offensive coordinator Todd Sturdy will be named receivers / pass game coordinator at Iowa State https://twitter.com/footballscoop/st...05192649465856 "We embrace that challenge and what it presents to us. I’m going to approach all 12 games this way: We’re going to win them all. If we prepare and then go out and execute, we’re going to win all 12. Now how many are we going to end up with at the end of the year? I don’t know, and you’re right, I won’t put a number on it."- Paul Rhoads on having the toughest schedule in the Big 12 -

Re: New WR coach
Well here's something interesting. This is just days after this:
Montana State football coach Rob Ash isn't wasting any time filling his vacant coaching positions.
Todd Sturdy, the former offensive coordinator at Washington State, gets the nod as MSU's new offensive coordinator.
Final paperwork was being completed Tuesday afternoon, so MSU didn't make a formal announcement. But Ash says he's "thrilled" with what Sturdy will bring to the Bobcat program.

Re: New WR coach
looking around rivals, it looked like he recruited a lot in CA for WSU.

Re: New WR coach
If he comes, this sounds like a great, overqualified hire. I think it's great to have someone who clearly has skills to get promoted in that position, and an experienced OC on board.
If he doesn't, I'm glad for him with the Montana State position. I'll be curious to see how this shakes out.
How do coaches rate that as a career decision?
