MSU doubles down on guys with NFL training experience as their assistant coaches. After hiring Brandon Jordan last year (who trained JJ Watt), they now hired Diron Reynolds, who previously coached DL at Stanford, but has trained linemen in between.
I think this is great in the short term, and maybe that's the plan. We already landed one high 4* DL over Alabama and Oklahoma due to Jordan, and it seems like this will lock down a 5* DL, who would be the 2nd highest rated recruit in the 247 era. But if these guys are just recruiting tools, that runs out, once they aren't training NFL players. Maybe that is Tucker's philosophy. Just burn through position coaches, based on acquiring talent, rather than developing it. Feels like a different method to get to the same end result. Either scout underrated 3* talent and develop the hell out of them, like Dantonio; or bring in 4/5* talent, and hope in pans out. I guess we've seen Option A, and it's good enough to win Big Ten titles, but get blown out by well coached 4/5* talent. So whatever, I guess this is Option B. See if poorly coached 4/5* talent can do better
