Wasn't there a third Texas HS coach who signed on when Rhule arrived? I see Bell and McGuire listed. Did that other guy leave or is he still on the staff and just not listed?

I'm glad to see McGuire get the promotion.

To my understanding, Wetzel is in more of an administrative role off the field.

Seems like a big promotion for CJM. Good for him!

My theory all along has been that McGuire would be in line for head coach if Rhule were to leave, and this now puts McGuire one step closer in the career path towards the head coaching position.

Hope we can keep Wetzel in the mix and that hs admin role off the field isn't unsatisfactory for him.

I would be good with McGuire at head coach. He would be great.

Agree 100%. With his Texas HS and BU knowledge, he's a definite asset.

We know CMR is going to the NFL; it's only a matter of time (I don't begrudge anyone for following a professional dream). I'm glad to see a succession plan being executed. McGuire will do well moving up and to another side of the ball. Looks like Bell is staying as a coach on the Oline so that's good too.

Can someone interpret this for me. Does this mean he is now basically in charge of the Defense? Is he Snow's eventual replacement in the next year or two when Snow retires?

Snow is in charge of the defense. Associate HC responsibilities vary from staff to staff. Not sure what the breakdown is at BU.
