Not saying you are wrong, but I don't remember Ron Brown going out on the road and doing a lot of recruiting under Bo.  I think Brown was brought in if they thought that a player was deeply religious/Christian, but that's about it.  I would probably give Tim Beck more credit to recruiting Burkhead, given Beck's Texas ties.  Ameer is Muslim, and I do remember that he had talks with Brown about religious faith, in general.

I'm being lazy and not digging up the actual conversation, but Abdullah was vocal in his praise of Ron Brown. As zealous as Brown is, a devout Muslim like Abdullah had no problem with him, and apparently much love for him.

I agree that Abdullah and Brown had a great relationship.

Wasn’t there also a story about Brown, AA, and a tornado during a recruiting trip?  

Found it.  And yea, I’d take him back as a position coach today...

Are we actually concerned about staff departures from the machine that is NU football these days?  The 4 win seasons are generating quite a bit of national coaching buzz amongst those programs with job openings.

With another sub-500 year possible on the horizon, the only staff departures set to occur will be those that result from termination.

I would have to imagine they will have MUCH better options next season....Didnt they hire a WR coach to be their HC a few HCs ago? lol 

EDIT: I am referring to these coaches not Kansas
