FAU: A source tells me Charlie Partridge plans to hire several coaches with vast recruiting experience in the state of Florida. Don't be surprised if Partridge targets former Texas and Mississippi State defensive coordinator Manny Diaz for his defensive coordinator position.
I'm hoping a few of our current assistants are retained as well, but I love the strategy of brining in guys with strong backgrounds in Florida.

Mixed feelings on Manny Diaz, but no doubt he's a hell of a recruiter

I spoke w a couple of Big 12 coaches today about the issues at Texas. Not one of them thought getting rid of Manny would be a smart move.
Interesting

From what I saw, he was getting paid 700k at Texas, I wonder if he would take that kind of pay cut.Posted On: Dec 15th 2013, 3:43 PM #324456
Pay cut? Wouldn't he still be getting paid by Texas?
