Coaching changes

[edit]

Jeff Casteel was relieved of his duties as defensive coordinator. Former Sacramento State head coach Jody Sears took over as Wolf Pack's Defensive Coordinator for the bowl game. Norvell said "Jeff, David and Mike have made significant contributions to our program and I'm appreciative of their efforts with the Wolf Pack, We are moving forward in a new direction, and we are preparing for the bowl game at this time."[2] and Norvell again said "We're excited to have these high quality coaches with us as we prepare for a really good Ohio team in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl, With the early signing period behind us, our sole purpose is to prepare our players to win the bowl game. We will focus on filling permanent additions to the staff in January. Probably the most important thing is getting the right coaches here for the long term, I'm not going to hurry through that process. I'm going to take my time. I'm going to talk to everybody I know. We'll talk to college coaches, professional coaches, everybody that I respect we'll get information from and we'll make sure we have the right people who have the qualities that we need to take the next step."[3]
