2018 Coaching Carousel

Quick Notes

- UCLA fired Jim Mora after he went 7-6 in 2017, then 5-7 in 2017, hiring Raymond Woodie away from Tulsa, who'll replace him with Major Applewhite from San Jose State. Mora will attempt to salvage his career at ULL.

- Gus Malzahn has landed at Arkansas, where he'll attempt to turn around a program that's gone 4-8 in each of the past 2 seasons.

- The triple option is heading to the MAC (or maybe the AAC when I realign), as Ivin Jasper has been hired at Bowling Green, who's former HC Van Malone will take over at Michigan State after going 10-4 and 9-4.

- Louisville are in trouble, hiring rookie HC Joe Morehead, as they've gone 4-8, 6-6 and now 2-10 over the past 3 seasons. Also in trouble are Pitt, who haven't had a year over 7 wins since 2013. They hired former EMU HC Chris Creighton, who went 12-2 with a MAC title, shocking the nation along with Akron as the MAC duo finished the year ranked.

Created Coaches

Firstly, I've created Amir Cohen, who will be taking over as the HC at Kalispell, just because I want to slightly manage them and see if they can rise up. Deuce Vader (Deuce2223) is taking over as UCLA's new OC. Scottie Slaughter (Careless Whisper) will join him in the PAC-12 as Oregon State's new OC. Jon Dobzinski (joshuahuskers) will be Illinois' new OC, and last but not least, John Smith (parent22), will be the DC at ECU.

Note: Transfer portal for QBs will be done in preseason, I can't see the rosters at this stage of the offseason.

National Signing Day, 2018 Offseason

Reports by Isaac Robinson - February 7th, 2019

Swarm pull in #67 ranked class

Westlake, OH -- Signing Day has come and gone, and the dust has settled on Dion Barkley's first recruiting class. Westlake State have pulled in the #67 ranked class, as per ESPN, headlined by 4 star wideout Nic Johnson and JUCO ATH Kevin Campbell, both of whom are expected to start in 2019. Outside of them and maybe OL Tim Pembroke, this class lacks instant impact players. However, guys like Jeremy Watson, Davion Williams, and Nick Watts have a ton of potential and could possibly start as soon as 2020. The full class can be found below.

Elsewhere in the American, Kalispell have somehow pulled in the #9 overall recruit, ATH Chris Washington, who's expected to play both ways as a wideout and defensive back. Navy had the best class of any AAC team, coming in at #34. Houston, who finished the year at #11, pulled in a pair of 5 star wideouts: Ricky Simmons and the aptly-named Kevin Houston.

Kentucky are on the rise, finishing last season ranked 22nd, and grabbed a dynamic duo in #1 wideout Eddie Gooslby as well as #1 dual-threat QB Travis Brittain. Their class ranked 19th.

The traditional powers stay at the top, with Oklahoma, Alabama, Texas A&M, Penn State, and Clemson reeling in the nation's top 5 classes.

Westlake State Swarm Football Staff Communications

From: Head Coach Dion Barkley

To: All Coaching Staff

Subject: Position changes and cuts

Hey everyone. Getting close to the start of preseason, here's a look at the position changes ad cuts we're making.

Xavier Meeks is moving from QB to wideout. He was never going to make it at QB, can't really throw. Jeremy Watson is going to play TE for us, not WR. He's super strong for a wideout, super fast too, we're going to try to teach him how to block. John Paul Scruggs is moving to right tackle. Lastly, incoming SS Pierre Brown is going to move to ROLB.

HB Jake Kidd, incoming WR Allen Nicholson, WR Paul Charles, LE Zach Smith, MLB Glen McIntosh, and LT Kyle Fenton are the cuts. Always hate to do it, but we have to.
