Re: Channel 5 mentioned two more hires
Messingham sounded very familiar to me and now I see why, he was the HC of Upper Iowa while I was there. The team was not very good then and he was in a pretty tough spot, recruiting to Fayette, IA and they were transitioning to DII at the time with no conference affiliation at the time. I think he will be a good fit to coach TE's. He was a very nice guy and many of the guys really liked him.

Re: Channel 5 mentioned two more hires
Messingham is a UNI grad, and was on former UNI and KU coach Terry Allen's staff at Missouri State.
Wasn't TA an assistant coach at ISU after he was fired from KU?

Re: Channel 5 mentioned two more hires
Kind of meh on Messingham. Just something about him does not scream good position coach. Hopefully I am wrong.

So here's basically what we've got for position groups:
QB: Herman
RB: Pope
TE: Messingham
OL: Bliel
WR: Wells
DB: Ash
LB: W Burnham
DL: S Burnham/Bray
ST: Likely one of S Burnham/Rhoads.

Re: Channel 5 mentioned two more hires
Messingham I believe is a W'loo East grad and QB'd some of the best teams in state history.
He was at UIU for only 1 year, maybe 2 as they transitioned to D2 and I think quickly realized he was on a sinking ship.

Especially on offense, the role of position coaches hinge much more on what the OC wants. With Herman running an especially gimmicky offense, Messingham will more than likely have to adapt to what Herman wants anyways.
Either way, I hope we actually throw to the TE this year.

Re: Channel 5 mentioned two more hires
I'm pretty sure we'll have 9 coaches. We only have 8 right now, not counting Rhoads.
