Yep we've got us a new sheriff in town and I am truly looking forward to the regime change. Particularly after watching the Tennessee/UCLA game. I found it painfully BO-RING to watch Tennessee's oh-so-familiar pro-set offense. And, heaven help me, I actually started rooting for Neuheisel and his INT happy QB. It got me ta thinking.....where'd all them former deputies run off to after being chased out of town by RR any ol' way???
So, for the curious, I provide you with WHERE ARE THEY NOW????
Erik (Soup) Campbell: Campbell was a four-year letterman (1984-87) at Michigan and played on both sides of the ball. And, he is a supernice guy. He is the only player in Michigan football history to start at all four secondary positions in one year. He began his full-time
coaching career as an assistant coach with the U.S. Naval Academy, coaching running backs in 1989-90. He then went to Ball State University as the running backs coach (1991-93). Campbell coached one season at Syracuse (1994) before returning to Ann Arbor as the Wolverines' wide receivers coach. His list of NFL products includes: Amani Toomer, a second-round draft pick of the New York Giants (1996); Mercury Hayes, a fifth-round pick of the New Orleans Saints (1996); 1997 Heisman Trophy winner Charles Woodson, a first-round pick of the Oakland Raiders (1998); Tai Streets, a fifth-round pick of the San Francisco 49ers (1999); Marcus Knight, a free agent pickup of the Oakland Raiders (2000); Stever Terrell, the eighth pick of the 2001 NFL Draft by the Chicago Bears; Walker, a third-round selection by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2002); free agent signee Ronald Bellamy by the Miami Dolphins (2003); Braylon Edwards, the third pick of the 2005 NFL Draft by the Cleveland Browns and Jason Avant, a fourth-round pick of the Philadelphia Eagles in 2006.

In last week's game against Maine, his squad racked up 12 passing first downs with 212 net yards passing, gaining an impressive 7.3 yards/pass play. All 10 of the recievers on the roster caught at least one ball, with the longest one to Sandeman for 25 yards in the 46-3 win over the Black Bears.
Mike DeBord (did I just hear someone say "who cares?") From the Seattle Seahawks website: He was appointed to the Michigan staff in 1992 as the offensive line coach and elevated to assistant head coach in 1995. DeBord was promoted to offensive coordinator and tight ends coach in 1997 before becoming the head coach at Central Michigan University in 2000. After four seasons at Central Michigan, he returned to the Wolverines in 2004, spending the last two as offensive coordinator and tight ends coach. DeBord's main responsibilities will be to aid coach Mike Solari in the day-to-day preparation and practice regimen for the offensive line, led by Pro Bowler Walter Jones and Mike Wahle. The Seahawks open their regular season against the Buffalo Bills, in Buffalo, on Sunday Sept. 7, 2008 after going 3-1 in the pre-season.
Ron English: Now the defensive coordinator for University of Louisville. Unfortunately his birds opened their season with a 27-2 loss to archrival University of Kentucky. English's squad held Kentucky to 63 rushing yards, but no surprise...they let Kentucky's QB throw for 147 yards with a 91.45 pass efficiency. OUCH. Oh yeah....and his squad gave up 17 points to the Wildcats in the 4th quarter. de ja vu all over again????Scot Loeffler: Dude. Who'd you piss off??? QB coach for the Detroit Lions? Charged with developing Drew Stanton.....From the website of the Honolulu Blue: Loeffler joins the Lions after six seasons (2002-07) as the University of Michigan’s quarterbacks coach. During his tenure, Wolverine quarterbacks threw for 142 touchdowns to just 44 interceptions and had more than 20 passing touchdowns each season. Loeffler was instrumental in the development of QB Chad Henne who is entering the 2008
NFL Draft as Michigan’s record holder in career passing yards (9,715), touchdowns (87), completions (828) and attempts (1,387). Henne threw a school-tying record 25 touchdown passes as a true freshman in 2004 and became the first quarterback in school history to throw for 20 or more touchdowns in each of his first three seasons. He was also the first true freshman signal caller to lead his team to a Big Ten title and became just the second true freshman to start a BCS bowl game. Henne tied the U-M single-game mark with four touchdown passes three times: twice vs. Michigan State (10/30/2004 and 11/3/2007) and against Texas in the Rose Bowl (1/1/2005).
Loeffler began his coaching career as a graduate assistant for the University of Michigan in 1998. Previously, he was a member of the Wolverine football team as quarterback (1993-95) and was a student assistant (1996-97) after his playing career was cut short due to a shoulder injury. During his time as a graduate assistant (1998-99), Loeffler helped coach current NFL quarterbacks Tom Brady (NFL MVP and two-time Super Bowl MVP) and Brian Griese. He moved onto Central Michigan in 2000 where he coached the Chippewas’ quarterbacks for two years. Loeffler returned to his alma mater as the quarterbacks coach in 2002.
In 1998, Loeffler graduated from Michigan with a degree in history and political science. He also earned the Michigan Athletic Academic Achievement award during the 1997-98 academic year.
A native of Barberton, Ohio, Loeffler was a two-year starter for Barberton High School at the quarterback position. He set school records in career passing yards (4,226) and touchdowns (30). Loeffler was rated as a top-10 prep quarterback when he committed to Michigan and was inducted in the Barberton Sports Hall of Fame in 2005.

Andy Moeller: Has returned to a team with his favorite color. As in Pi Hi and now The Baltimore Ravens. I can't really do better than their website. Coach Gary Moeller's son is an assistant offensive line coach for the Ravens under their Head Coach John Harbaugh (aka Voldemort's Daddy). The Ravens went 1-3 in the pre-season and open against the Bengals this Sunday.Vance Bedford: He is now the cornerback's coach for the University of Florida. The Gators buzz-sawed thru the Rainbow Warriors of Hawaii 56-10. Florida had 4 INTs for 112 yards and 2 TDs. Hmmmmm......
AND, Headed for parts unknown: Steve Stripling and Steve Szabo
Happy Trails

2 of Kentucky's scores were fumble returns by the defense, and one was a 1 play, 7 yard drive set up by an interception. That account for 21 points, leaving Ron English responsible for a grand total of 6 points.
I agree with Dex (everyone watch out for a lightning strike). I watched that Kentucky/Louisville game in between naps. English's defense deserved a better fate. The Louisville offense was criminal.
BTW, nice attempt on the Campbell's soup can. I will now be forced to make a replacement.
I see PSU students are in trouble again. Will they have any players left by the end of the season?
thanks dex, right you are sir!
trickeration on my part.....
wanted to see if anyone actually went to the links ;-)
glad to know you are around
yes i know i seem like a dick but i'm really not, sometimes i just get bored and like to rile people up.
You will fit right in around here then. Many of our "spawners" are only here to stir the pot until it turns scarlet and grey.
Quarterbacks Coach for the Lions wouldn't be nearly the wasteland that the O-Line coach is.
