After doing a little research on Jim Hostler I have to say I am impressed. At 46 the man has been coaching for 21 years. Twelve of those 21 years he has coached at the NFL level. He began as a RB coach for his alma mater Indiana University in 93 with Juniata College he was named OC and was the youngest coached at his position. He has coached RBs, LBs, WRs, & QBs & has been an Offensive Coordinator at the pro and college level. He has been part of the Saints, Chiefs, Jets, 49ers & Ravens and is credited for the 49ers selection of Alex Smith. While he did struggle as an Offensive Coordinator with the 49ers his greatest success has come as a WR coach. He has helped players like Santana Moss, Justin McCareins, Derrick Mason, Anquan Boldin, Mark Clayton & Torrey Smith succeed at WR. If reports are correct he comes highly recommended by Mike McCarthy for the Dolphins' WR coaching vacancy.
 
anyone see the theme here?

philbin is bringing in TEACHERS, not just bodies to fill a spot. guys who know the game but most importantly, can get others to understand and execute that knowledge. like philbin himself!!
