Lost all but just a few OL and returned the top OL in his conference in 2005? I heard that on the SA, I'll get numbers if I find a read about it... Just wondering in case someone knows the scoop on the new guy... Sounds like a VERY impressive resume if true. Anyone else heard this???

I'm just curious if someone else heard that or knows anything cuz I can't find a link as most OL coaches are not seen as feature story material...

I have heard that he has sent at least one OL to the NFL every year he was at NW. And I thought I even heard that in '03 or '04, he sent all of his seniors (4 I think) in the draft. I think this past year was his worst year for OL, he sent one in the draft and 1 or 2 as UDFA's. Everything I've read and heard about him is always very positive and impressive...

I found it... I heard Traber say it, but then I read about it in Phil Steele's magazine... Looks like a tremendous hire for an ailing position on OU's roster... Very excited. Hopefully he is the Bob Stoops of OL coaches!!! :D

I have heard that he IS a great coach before too.We definitely need an OL wizard to help us out.

I think Drill Sergeant Schmiddy's been a little rough on 'em lately... He must really hate fat kids... :(

Lately? I think Schmiddy came out of the womb and told the doctor to start doing wall-squats.

I hate to think what he made his mama do...

Good, though... Although I'd probably die in his two-a-days, I like hearing that kinda toughness...
