Bengston is the correct spelling, sorry Coach. Here's a football scoop article "Source: One of top Division II coordinators leaving for South Dakota State"

Twitter profile updated: Wide Receivers Coach @GoJacksFB Passionate about developing our players & impacting children in South Africa.

if anyone is curious about the South Africa bit, here's an article (paywall) on it. This direct link should bypass the paywall. If it doesn't, copy the article link into 12ft.io to get past the paywall.

Football scoop article on McLin from yesterday while we're at it "Source: Top D-III program loses coordinator to FCS level"

A familiar face gets added to the staff ! http://www.x.com/JackIllustrated/sta...14250493751463

Switched positions and was an excellent CB, played a role in Jason Freeman coming here, and was a great student. Definitely seems like an awesome addition to staff.

We've gotten a number of very good players from the Chicago area. McLin should be a valuable recruiter for the Illinois and eastern Wisconsin area.

Agree, I like the hire. Familiarity and backgrounds in Chicago, Wisconsin, Minnesota. Experience as a D2 DC overseeing the entire defense. Experience as a D3 Co DC, needing to learn to work with and share important opinions from another Co DC. Experience as an assistant HC, dealing with some of the odd things of a program and seeing the entire picture. Young guy who should be able to relate to players. Taking those experiences and placing them into a single position group now, a win (I think, without having ever met the guy nor heard of him until a day ago).

Curious on his reason for going from Divison II DC at Bemidji State to a DIII Co-DC at Wisconsin Whitewater? BSU had a good defense under him, so I am assuming he wasn't asked to leave? UW-W is home for him though, so maybe just the pull of going back home and adding the title of Associate Head Coach (but also a Co-DC, not even the only DC...)? To me, it seems like a backwards move - but who knows, maybe it isn't - and there's much more to these decisions than just "climbing the ladder."

Looks like Schlimgen pretty much wiped his twitter profile of all of his SDSU information other than his bio. That doesn't seem like a good sign.

Not seeing much chatter re. Schlimgen on 247 site, but who knows how accurate that is.

One of his first jobs after he arrives in Brookings should be a trip to Sioux Falls along with Jackson to visit Mr. Schlimgen.

I second this
