Football scoop reports that former UMass player and current Troy OC Neal Brown is being considered for the OC position at Texas Tech. I've blogged about Brown before. Brown appears to be one of the brightest young offensive minds in coaching. I've always hoped that he would do a head coaching tour at UMass. If he is appointed OC at the Red Raiders, he may bypass FCS football completely.

UPDATE: It is confirmed that Texas Tech has contacted Brown.

The New York Post mentions current Miami OC Mark Whipple in connection with the open HC position in South Florida.
