Coaching staff tweaks (1 Viewer)

Was looking through the coaching staff on the site, and I noticed that Curtis Johnson is no longer listed as wide receivers coach. That position has went to Ronald Curry, who was previously his assistant. Johnson retains the title of "senior offensive assistant." It remains to be seen if this has any real impact on how things are done, but it's noteworthy that the titles have changed.

Also noticed that we hired former NFL LB Mike Wilhoite as an assistant special teams coach. Other new assistants are Declan Doyle (offensive assistant, previously a student offensive assistant at Iowa) and D.J. Williams (offensive assistant, previously a Saints scout; son of Doug Williams).
