Here are some names to consider for the two Gophers' coordinating jobs:
Offensive coordinator
Major Applewhite, running backs/
assistant head coach, Texas
He and Brewster have a relationship formed when Applewhite was playing at Texas and Brewster was there as an assistant coach. Applewhite would seem to be in line for a future head coaching job. But would going to Minnesota to be coordinator be the right stepping stone?
Chuck Long, former head coach San Diego State University
He has Big Ten roots, head coaching experience and he can coach quarterbacks.
Defensive coordinator
Kevin Cosgrove, former Nebraska defensive coordinator
The former assistant at both Wisconsin and Nebraska has been friends with Brewster for years going back to their time at Illinois in the early 1980s.
Greg Robinson, former head coach, Syracuse
He has extensive experience coordinating defenses both in college and the NFL.
