I like where your heads at, but as
@RedSaidTed mentioned, i'm not sure anyone on staff currently could take that over. Beckton and Verduzco absolutely not (even though Verduzco has OC experience). I think there's not enough symmetry between Austin and Frost, so I don't believe that would work. That leaves Held who has struggled with his RB room since being here. I just don't think we can do it.
If I were Frost, here's my options:
- TEs coach is the special teams coordinator on a ton of teams, can Beckton do it? If not I may start looking around at Sean Snyder, Dan Jackson, they can be full times special teams and your TE coach, since TEs go with OL for blocking drills and WRs for route running.
- I am not a Verduzco fan so this may be a little biased, but I move Verduzco to an analyst and have Frost oversee the QBs like he did with Mariota in Oregon. Then hire a special teams guy that is just special teams, or helps Frost with QBs. However, we all want Frost to give up some playcalling duties to not be spread so thin and be more of a CEO, so i'm not sure how feasible this one is. I think this one is a bit more clunky when you try to work out the specifics.
- Have a current full-time coach be your special teams coordinator like Dawson (who does not want to do it).
