In Nicholson's mind, that's where ex-NFL quarterback Doug Williams, a Super Bowl MVP and former Grambling star, enters the picture. Williams is currently a scout with the NFL's Jacksonville Jaguars but was recently interviewed by Morehouse for a coaching job.
"It would be a good move to bring
Doug in now, but put him in a
position other than football coach
during Eddie's let year," Nicholson
says. "I can still get a start on
recruiting and have a solid chance of
getting some of the top athletes
because of his high visibility and
because the recruits will know that
he's going to be the coach. That puts
Grambling in position to get the
quality of athletes it has in the past,
and the school won't lose an additional
year in recruiting like it would if the
school waits until later next year to
hire a new coach."
