So what are we looking at here?

I'm guessing Sundheim and Skalaski stay on.
I'm sure he brings back Wimberly, but as DC?
What other Kansas coaches will he bring with him?

I'm sure he's got A LOT of connections

Maybe a Turner Gill/Ron Brown combo?!? Hey, a fella can dream.
I'm still dreaming!

since he's apparently a horrendously incompetent HC, I'm assuming he'll be bringing 8-10 geniuses with him 8)

I kind of hope he brings in a new staff. I don't like people to lose their jobs, but I would like to see this program go in a whole new direction and let Coach Gill bring in his own staff. It's hard to inherit coaches and feel like you have to keep them. I think recruiting will be fine if he just reaches out to current verbals...

I think you can pencil at least 3 that will stay and I'm sure he was made aware of that

I'll add the video guy to that list. He's a hard worker and a good man.

We need to keep a few guys around that know Liberty. We're a special breed so you need some help there. Keeping Skalaski will be huge (and personally, keeping Adam Godwin in his role as well to help with recruiting). Sundheim is a lifer. He's not going anywhere.

Coach Gillespie - don't consider him a coach that was ever in question. What coach wouldn't want him?

I don't know the others, but hope no one was forced on him... That is never a good idea...

Hate to hear he is moving on too. I hope we can get someone to go back to a pro style offense. We have to learn how to run the football again.
