Jamarcus Shepard WR/CO-Offensive Coordinator

I still haven’t heard anything about Sheppard taking the ND job yet. Wtf?

Notre Dame is interviewing Bama's WR coach Holmon Wiggins sometime this week (maybe as early as today?). They had to wait until the season was over. Shephard is their second choice so they're going to see if Wiggins rejects them first.

Yeah this is the same thing I've seen on various posts and tweets but it seems odd since some coaches involved in the playoffs already accepted new jobs -- why does Bama's WR coach need to wait until after the playoffs to even interview while Georgia's DC didn't have to wait in order to interview and accept. It isn't like Bama benefited by making their WR coach wait.

Having his co-DC become a head coach at a desirable P-5 far away is a feather in Kirby’s cap. Saban losing a position coach he would like to keep to a lateral move isn’t. If the assistant isn’t hired then he’s also pissed off the dark lord. Or maybe he legitimately didn’t want the distraction, but for a coordinator or HC job the distraction is worth it.

I read somewhere that Saban has a policy about assistants interviewing while their season is still going on. I haven't done any research to confirm if this is true or not.

Sounds like there might be a chance Notre Dame hires Baylors WR coach. They're at least interested enough to interview him after interviewing Shepard.
