Iowa State TE coach and recruiting coordinator.
Iowa State TE coach and recruiting coordinator.
New OC
- Thread starter hemightbejeremy
- Start date
Guess we’re gonna have to learn to throw to the tight ends more.
Not surprised to hear you're not happy about something but why aren't you happy with this hire?
Could be looked at a few different ways. A good leader will hire people who help their weaknesses, we don’t utilize TE maybe cause huep doesn’t propel my know how to use them well.
I hope this does not slow down our offense into a more traditional pro style play. Not sure how they ran the offense in Iowa state

Ok, cool. Which recruits will he be poaching from Campbell's target list?
Hopefully this is a great pickup. Huep will actually run the O and control the plays, If the new guy can upgrade the TE position and recruit well, great.
Why? because Iowa is such a fertile recruiting grounds. Maybe we can get a few corn fed lineman.

Similar offensive philosophies based on Air Raid scheme but regardless CJH is not giving up play calling and there is not a snowballs chance in hell he abandons his scheme. If anything he moved towards more RPO as DG matured during the course of the year......With better TE development under this new coach we will hopefully see more of CJH's 2018 TE utilization......

Their significant recent improvement in recruiting relied significantly on Florida and Texas..........
It could just be that none of the TE this year could catch like Colubiale so JH abandoned those plays and used Marlon and Harris more
I looked on ESPN and Rivals and it doesn’t list who the main recruiter was for Purdy
We lost our TE coach to Arkansas this year also, so this is like 2 birds with 1 stone
Because his cows will be toast for years to come and series will even up next year.
I believe Heup chose someone who would grow into the role. Someone who will stay at UCF long term. Dude was at Iowa St. for 4 years, that’s a rarity in college football. Hopefully, he becomes a goody and can recruit. I believe the lifestyle in sunny Florida is pretty attractive and an incentive to stay long term.
You can argue whether you can keep a Head Coach, though I don't see Heupel staying if he got offers from major programs. However, coordinators are going to come and go if they are successful, especially at the G5 level unless there is some successor plan.
Campbell brought him from Toledo to Iowa State so he obviously thinks high of him
maybe Lockette for the last opening ?

Possibles Pros:
Heup brought in new OC/TE coach for Gabe Davis' little brother
hopefully to call his number more.
Heup brought in new OC to help in recruiting (more RBs with size?)
Heup brought in new OC who will NOT be mad if he doesn't call the plays.
Possible Cons:
No QB coach but this season a lefty HC is coaching a lefty starter and having
KZ is like having a QB coach around.
As a long time fan its nice to see players transfer here from P5 teams to UCF and coaches coming here from P5 teams although there's the risk that their success leads to a quick return to P5.

It may be a leap to think that CJH will not bring in a QB coach also........That said he indicated he has been hands on and is in the QB room everyday
It definitely wont be long term and may be very short term if there's nobody to man the film room with the QBs.
Incorrect.
Golesh was at Illinois when Campbell brought him to Iowa State. He was at Toledo prior to his 4 years at Illinois. (That's when he was named Top 10 recruiter).
There was a reason why Heupel and staff were pushing so hard for Colubiale to get a 6th yr of eligibility approved. They saw what else was in that TE room.
"Shouldn't have let him go to the bowl trip in Orlando!" as one Iowa St. poster mentioned
He was previously TE coach and our TE coach was poached so he will probably pick up the slack there.
I don't know anything about him, but Cyclones fans treating this as a big loss is encouraging. lol
We def needed a recruiter for losing Lebby so quality pickup.
We didnt utilize TE’s enough this year which is something frost did a great job at. I like the hire because it shows Heupel going out and working on a perceived weakness
He is a coach from the Midwest without Florida ties. My understanding is that he has not been an Offensive Coordinator before. I am fine with him being hired as a TE coach but appears to be a down-grade from Coach L.
You don’t have much understanding unfortunately. Lebby was OC in title only and was coaching at DII prior to coming to UCF. Golesh was part of the most successful run in Iowa State history and recruiting coordinator for their best recruiting class in history last year. He turned their TE passing game from 7 completions combined on a season to 7 touchdowns on 50+ catches and 700+ yards.
it’s hilarious that you are back actually posting in this thread. Go back to cow board and salivate over your FAU coaches now.
Bulls of Camelot would have only been happy if we hired urban Meyer to be our new OC
