Apparently one of Cal's coaches -- Charlie Ragle -- was one of the members of the Triangle of Secrecy. I always wondered why a guy coaching at Arizona for 5 years wanted out so badly and was willing to take a lateral position. Makes a lot more sense now.

KUGRDON Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 FORMER MINNESOTA HEAD COACH Tracy Claeys has been hired to be the defensive coordinator at Washington State, the school said in a release. The Minneapolis Star Tribune first reported the hire, saying Claeys had agreed to a two-year contract to serve as Mike Leach's DC. Claeys spent this past year out of coaching. “Tracy comes highly recommended as a tremendous teacher, strategist, and a player’s coach with an impressive body of work that has withstood the test of time,” said Leach in the release. “We are fortunate to have him at Washington State University.” “I would like to thank Coach Leach and Washington State University for the opportunity to coach the Cougs!” said Claeys in the release. “I am looking forward to getting to Pullman, working with a great staff and getting to know the players.” Claeys was the head coach at Minnesota for 1 1-2 seasons (2015-16) after former head coach Jerry Kill resigned due to health problems. Minnesota went 9-4 in 2016 including a Holiday Bowl win over Washington State. Claeys was fired soon after the bowl win and following the suspensions of 10 Minnesota football players accused of having a role in a sexual assault case. He penned this column for the Twin Cities Pioneer Press this past August: CLICK HERE. Claeys is the second Minnesota coach to join the Cougs in as many years: DL coach Jeff Phelps came to WSU last January after spending the past six years at Minnesota under Claeys (first with Claeys as DC, then as head coach). After his first season as Minnesota's DC in 2011, when the Gophers allowed 31.7 ppg, the most Minnesota subsequently allowed was 24.2 ppg. Clayes' DC stint at Minnesota ran from 2011-15 where he primarily ran a 4-3 defensive front, though in 2015-16 Minnesota was moving more towards multiple fronts and looks and some 3-4 concepts. The Cougars under Alex Grinch listed their defense the past three years as a 3-4, with a RUSH linebacker often playing with his hand in the ground. From 2014-16, the Gophers ranked within the top 45 in the nation in scoring defense and No. 21 in the nation in Claeys' last year (22.1 ppg, 2016). In 2015, the Gophers defense ranked 11th nationally against the pass (179.5 yards per game) and 24th in total yards allowed (345.9). Before Claeys assumed the head role at Minnesota, he served as Kill’s defensive coordinator over the previous 16 seasons (Minnesota, Northern Illinois, Southern Illinois, Emporia State). It is unknown if Claeys will also coach a position group at WSU among his responsibilities as Grinch did during his three seasons in Pullman (safeties and corners). Prior to Minnesota, Claeys spent three seasons at Northern Illinois and seven years at Southern Illinois, all as defensive coordinator. In 2008, his first season at Northern Illinois, Claeys and the defensive staff engineered one of the biggest turnarounds in the country as NIU finished in the top 20 nationally in three categories – fifth in pass defense, 14th in scoring defense and 17th in total defense and led the MAC in pass defense, scoring defense and total defense. In his last five years at Southern Illinois, Claeys’ defenses allowed an average of 18.5 points. Claeys has coached four First Team All-Big Ten defensive selections - Briean Boddy-Calhoun (2014), Damien Wilson (2014), Ra'Shede Hageman (2013) and Brock Vereen (2013) - at Minnesota in five years. In contrast, Minnesota had five First Team All-Big Ten defensive selections from 2000-10. Claeys-coached players in the NFL include six Minnesota defensive players taken in the NFL Draft the last three years: Eric Murray (2016, Kansas City Chiefs), De'Vondre Campbell (2016, Atlanta Falcons), Damien Wilson (2015, Dallas Cowboys), Cedric Thompson (2015, Miami Dolphins), Ra'Shede Hageman (2014, Atlanta Falcons) and Brock Vereen (2014, Chicago Bears). Previously, Minnesota had six defensive players drafted from 2000-13. Claeys, who attended both Kansas and Kansas State, graduated with a degree in Mathematics Education in 1994 from Kansas State. Like Leach, he did not play college football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAC MAN Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 http://www.buffzone.com/football-cubuffs/ci_31583865/dl-coach-jim-jeffcoat-wont-remain-buffs-staff CU has fired the DL coach...if you click on the article, it says that not only did CU's DL stink last season but the freshmen recruited DL under MacIntyre's tenure barely started games and CU has had to go the JUCO route. That unit will either lead to another contract extension for MacIntyre or a new head coach down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoastFan Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 So we might end up with Rick and Herm for the two Arizona jobs? That'll (along with Chip) give a different look to the Pac-12 South. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
