The drama from today is done….at least now our coaching change is complete but now Ark-Kansas is pissed.
The question out there still is “how does this affect recruiting?”
From Joe Person at The STATE—
“Steve Spurrier, at a press conference today announced Arkansas defensive coordinator Ellis Johnson as USC’s new defensive coordinator.”
Seems it has come full circle – Spurrier spoke with Johnson, who was then at Mississippi State, and reportedly offered him the job before hiring VanGorder, according to sources.
“Johnson received a three-year deal from new Arkansas coach Bobby Petrino, but has not signed the contract, according to another source close to Johnson.
Johnson is a South Carolina and former head coach of The Citadel. He has long expressed an interest in returning to the state, where he has a lot of friends and family.”
