From today's "The Football Scoop" website:

Coastal Carolina: Sources tell FootballScoop that Furman (FCS – SC) defensive line coach Josh Miller is expected to join the Coastal Carolina staff.

Does Coastal exclusively look at our staff when they need to fill a position? Feels like they've taken several of our guys over the years.

Why not, we never put up a fight?

Connect the dots. Chadwell, Staggs, and Miller were all on the CSU staff together.

Good for Coach Miller if that is what he wants to do. They could probably use him, they had an awful year. It will not be hard to hire a D Line coach to come to Furman.
Congrats to Coach Miller.

Good point. Was also thinking Patrick Covington, but couldn't remember if he ever was on staff at Furman.

On a separate note, I would love to play Coastal again ... we owe them big time for a lot of awful losses. But I'm guessing they have zero interest in that.

Coastal will be looking for another coach. Covington is leaving, also.

Reminder - it’s not a bad thing when your coaches are respected enough that bigger programs want to hire them

Coach Covington is going to Lamar University as OC/OL coach.

Blane Morgan is their new head coach, great man and coach.

He's been at Coastal for many years now with I'm sure plenty of chances to leave for different jobs. I'm kinda surprised this is the one that made him leave. Notwithstanding the playoff appearance over the Paladins in 2018, Lamar might be one of the last teams I think of when I think of FCS schools.

I think he got to know Coach Morgan when he was CCH's asst OL at Air Force. Coach Morgan was the QB coach at AF and later at San Diego State.

Well, if you really want the answer, ask his father. He is right on campus.
