Both coordinators gone?

Did Brew really lose both offensive and defensive coordinators in the same day? Maybe one was on purpose and the other one wasn't, but I don't think it matters. To lose both of them on the same day when the recruiting period isn't over seems to be quite harsh.

Whoever steps in Dunbar's place (I'm assuming the person has already been chosen) needs to carry some strong credentials while Brew searches for Roof's replacement.

Let's not assume he lost Dunbar on purpose.

That’s probably the case though.

There have been radio reports that Brewster offered Haslett Dunbar's job.

If so, I’d leave too, especially after Davis came in.

Reporting or speculation?

Sorry, got it mixed up...

..the St. Louis Post Dispatch reported that Brewster offered Jim Chaney the OC job. Chaney was an assistant to Haslett, and later took the OC job at Tennessee.

Brewster refuted the story in a January 3, 2009 article by Youngblood at the Strib. However, while Brewster denied he offered the job, that doesn’t mean he didn’t inquire as to Chaney. I don’t think Haslett would make that up and allow it to become the focus of a newspaper article.
