Former Tech WR Corey Dennis served as Ohio State’s QB coach last year and will do so again this year. Meaning his resumé is soon gonna include Justin Fields, CJ Stroud, and Quinn Ewers.
He went up to OSU after marrying Urban Meyer’s daughter Nikki (former Tech Volleyball player) and has worked his way up since then.
I don’t know much about his coaching/recruiting up there but you’ve gotta imagine he’s doing well to hold that role for OSU. And the names he’s coaching would give him some clout elsewhere in recruiting QBs. I wonder how much it would take to lure him away down the road to come back home. Guessing it would have to be at least a promotion to OC. He’s currently making $300K at OSU (Patenaude is making $400K as OC/QB coach) so we’d probably need him to give us a hometown discount too.
Not trying to make this a “we need a change” thread. But it never hurts to have former alums climbing the coaching ranks and I think he’ll be a name that pops up over the years when we have openings.
