The latest rumor in our coaching staff search is WR coach Jim Hostler of the Ravens. Not sure if his contract is up or not. If not, they would have to give him a promotion and not sure what that would be. Dont believe he is up for OC - as that should go to Sherman, especially with TB making their selection of Schiano. Hostler would be a great addition as a WR coach - unless they choose to split the OC responsibilities into "run" and "pass" coordinators...then maybe this could work.
Hostler was with McCarthy in 01 and 02 in New Orleans. Moved to SF, and was later promoted to off coordinator. His year as an OC didnt go so well under Mike Nolan - of course, the whole staff was fired at the end of that season. Since, he has been with John Harbaugh and the Ravens. Sounds like another really good technician and would be a nice hire for Miami if they can find a way to make this work!
Stay tuned!
UPDATE: Hostler is not under contract. He was given a 1 year deal last year so he could make the move from Baltimore to Miami as WR coach. Rumor is Miami has already made him an offer!
