Texas Hires Riley Dodge

[beevomav]

Longhorns have hired former North Texas quarterback Riley Dodge to fill the position of offensive quality control assistant.

Last season, the 24-year-old Dodge was a graduate assistant at Texas A&M and was credited for keeping Southlake Carroll quarterback Kenny Hill in the fold as Hill considered decommitting late in the process and took several visits.

Dodge can provide some perspective on the Airraid offense employed at Texas A&M under head coach Kevin Sumlin and offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury, as well as perspective on his father's offense, a hurry-up, spread attack with an emphasis on a handful of quarterback runs every game and completing high-percentage passes, similar to the offense that Texas will be employing moving forward under co-offensive coordinator and play caller Major Applewhite.

In that regard, Dodge is a perfect fit for what the Longhorns want -- someone with the offensive chops to make a difference as an offensive assistant, as well as the recruiting ability offensively that is a value add.

Damn Mack is making some good moves. I like the hire. Young guy, good mind....

Mack is prepping for another 10 years in Austin or he is trying to make sure he leaves the program in good shape when he leaves after the season.

I think Mack is recognizing the times and using the hurg $$$ advantage Texas has over nearly every other program.

His old man is a good football coach so he has been raised around the game. Hell, his dad was a quarterback at Texas in the early '80's so I am sure this is a dream gig for him. He was a grad aassistant in Aggieland last year.....
