Deland McCullough to USC

[ccgeneral 38,084]

247Sports has learned that Indiana running backs coach Deland McCullough interviewed for the opening on USC’s staff for a similar position.

The 44-year old McCullough is one of the top young coaches in college football.

Running backs who have shined under McCullough in Bloomington include Tevin Coleman of the Atlanta Falcons, Jordan Howard of the Chicago Bears and most recently Devine Redding who declared early for the NFL Draft following this past season.

Under McCullough’s watch, the Hoosiers have broke 19 school rushing records.

USC’s lost former running backs coach Tommie Robinson to LSU after National Signing Day.

McCullough played at Miami (Ohio) where he was a three-time All-Conference selection and finalist for the Doak Walker Award given to the nation’s top running back.

Wiltfong thinks it's gonna happen.

He was as good as gone a couple years ago to ND. Luckily, alum (and all-time leading rusher)Autry Denson wanted the job. We got lucky, might not  this time around.

Apparently Wilson kept all these great coaches thru intimidation.

What does that mean? How do you intimidate a grown man?

@zach_barnett: Indiana RBs coach Deland McCullough will be the new RBs coach at USC, sources tell @FootballScoop http://footballscoop.com/the-scoop 

As CCGeneral suggested, this is pretty much a done deal.

[bhaggard89 869]

No bueno. Hire Pechac as the RBs coach for no other reason than to secure his son's commitment.

this stinks

[Dalton26 16,891]

Sucks but I can't blame him. McCullough will definitely be missed and his work here will always be appreciated.

[Brass Cannon 24,064]

Hmm if we regress gonna be easy to blame Allen but might not be the case 

[iuswingman 1,940]

Jon Gruden for RB coach? :)

[Walking Boot of Doom 18,170]

Hmm if we regress gonna be easy to blame Allen but might not be the case 

 

Given the turnover at the assistant positions, wouldn't be surprised to see a lackluster offense, but it should still be better than last year, and no excuses on the defensive side. Gotta imagine Frey and DMC were not huge surprises to Allen.

 

Edit: holy run-on

So onto the next one. Who we want and what programs have had success running the ball. Conference idc about. Who can't develop mid tier talent? Or can we just AT to coach lol, or as someone said above.... Get pechac. Heck let's pull a Harbaugh who hires these recruits fathers onto the staff and lands them....
