One of our opponents in our most recent game at a Fitton is now an assistant coach. Welcome, Coach Seales! He’s a great young man. Had a chance to meet and spend time with him during the spring game weekend. Talked about how weird it was to be coaching guys he just played against. They also have a new QC coach (can’t remember his name) who played linebacker at Lehigh last year (DiMikes protege). He and I spoke as well. Nice young man! Coach Chesney is compiling quite a staff. Lots of energy. They are aggressively turning up the recruiting program as well. I believe Coach Vaganek might be spending a little time in sunny Florida as well as NJ. Just a little news from the weekend.

We need to clone Coach Vaganek-he has done a fantastic job with the recruiting in NJ

Personally from what I've seen, you have recruiting pick ups at the DL coach, the QB coach, the Safety coach, the WR coach. Deandrade was a good recruiter as the CB coach so if you get a wash with Barnes that would be great, because Barnes appears solid as well.
What do I base this off of? The players that Kennedy, Barnes, DiMichele, Della Cono got to campus. I fully expect Gunnell to make a difference in recruiting as well.

All of these coaches are young and full of fire on the recruiting trail. I spoke with Coach Gunnell and he is going through a get to know everyone stage. I agree once he settles in he'll be great in recruiting. I was very impressed with how he worked with the receiver group.

Two things that definitely help. Our ability now to likely pay these QC specialists the same or even more than we used to pay entry level position coaches AND the fact that our two previous QC’s were quickly promoted to positional coaches. Good story to tell young guys right out of college.
