Was Clark let go by ISU or did SIU lure him away?

I was told that he and the Spack-meister have had a somewhat strained relationship over the last couple years.  That's all he would say.  Told me to take what I wanted to from it.

I'm not sayin' -- I'm just sayin'!

Clark hasn't been at ISU since 2017. He was at SFA for a year then went to Dubuque as OC (D-III) for a couple years, then went to Grand View as a RBs coach (NAIA school), before coming to SIU. Seems like he's bounced around a lot lately.

That said, it likely didn't take much to convince him to take this job.

@siu_2011 Thanks for clarifying! I only saw his ISU profile when I did a search for him and assumed he was coming straight from there.

Not thrilled about the fact that he's bounced around as a positional coach.  Hopefully he know's his stuff and can get the most out of our O-Line.  Just win baby!

My one remaining source told me while he was there, at ISUred, was liked and well respected.

New OL coach Dan Clark and ST/DE coach Dalmin Gibson formally announced. Sound like pretty good hires.
