Ben Johnson was hired less than a week ago, but he’s already making significant progress in assembling his coaching staff. So far, he’s made some impressive hires. However, key positions like defensive and offensive coordinator remain unfilled but are expected to be addressed soon. I’ve also included members of the previous coaching staff from the last regime who have not officially been let go; their status is marked as “TBD.”
