That sucks, he was one I really hoped Durkin could keep. He had the best Baltimore connections on the staff. Might mean Rahshaun Smith is out of the question now.
Listened to Keith Cavanaugh last night on a radio show and he seems to be under the assumption that the Edsal assistant coaches are still active but their contracts run out at the end of the month, so I am sure many will move on.
It looks like Durkin is hiring guys for coaching talent but also, for their expertise in certain recruiting areas. Baltimore already is accounted for, but some of this years targets may well go elsewhere, since their guys are gone on to other jobs.
Short term pain, for long term gain.
