Matt LaFleur and the Green Bay Packers are bringing back one of the bright young assistants from Mike McCarthy’s tenure to coach Aaron Rodgers.

According to Rob Demovsky of ESPN, LaFleur has convinced Mississippi State offensive coordinator Luke Getsy – who served on McCarthy’s offensive staff from 2014-17 – to return to Green Bay as the Packers new quarterbacks coach.

The Packers are bringing back Luke Getsy as quarterbacks coach, according to sources. Getsy coached the Packers receivers before becoming Mississippi State's offensive coordinator last season. http://www.espn.com/espn/now?nowId=21-41053632-4 …

Getsy and Rodgers are believed to be close. In fact, Getsy told The Clarion Ledger last year that he and Rodgers had a “really good” relationship, which might have been a selling point for bringing him back to Green Bay.

“I really enjoyed my time with him,” Getsy said. “I was truly lucky and truly blessed to have an open dialogue with him. We grew close and it truly was a blessing to be where I was. He’s a great teammate, a great friend and he is a really good man. He truly is. I think he is reserved enough that people may think he kind of turns people off, but, no, he’s energetic, he’s enthusiastic, he’s charismatic, he’s hilarious. He’s got a lot going for him.”

I want to hate this move. But he was an OC in college, right?

Maybe this is good. But he looks like a caddy when its written up like this.

I think I read last week that Getsy and Rodgers had a pretty good rapport when Getsy was WR's coach. Getsy left for a year to get work as OC at Miss. St. This seems like a pretty logical move for him. Hopefully he's not a caddy but an up and comer. This might clear way for Dorrell to get WR coach job.

No on Angelicho.

#Packers TE coach Brian Angelichio won't return as first thought. Matt LaFleur has decided to hire #Falcons quality control / asst. OL coach Justin Outten to replace him. Angelichio is another one of the McCarthy position coaches who won't be back. He'll find another job.

Wow. Now here's a guy with a short resume:

https://www.atlantafalcons.com/team/.../justin-outten

Justin Outten is entering his second season as an offensive assistant for the Falcons. Before joining the staff full time, Outten was as an offensive intern for the Falcons during the 2016 season. Before joining the Falcons, he worked at Spring Westfield High School as the Assistant Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator/Offensive Line Coach from 2008-16. During that time, he helped coached 24 offensive linemen that received scholarships to play on the collegiate level, and he also coached one high school All-American during his time at the high school.

Before coaching at Spring Westfield, Outten worked as a graduate assistant at Syracuse University where he worked with the offensive line from 2007-08. Outten played at Syracuse from 2002-07, where he was the starting center for three years. During his time playing for the Orange, he was selected as a team captain and played a part in his team become Big East Champions in 2004. Outten was also a recipient of the Ray Martino Award for loyalty, enthusiasm, and perseverance.

I'm guessing this will not go over well here.

I heard speculation that Rizzi wants to be more than just a ST cooridinator (perhaps assist HC?) and to be paid accordingly.

I like the young coaching staff, but LaFleur himself just seems so meh to me. I like him on paper but in that press conference he was so timid and meek.

I know a couple of nice high school boys looking for summer jobs. Very enthusiastic, lots of school spirit . Maybe one of them could coach tight ends for training camp, until school starts in September.

You really want to save some coin, think two words: work release.

Maybe sharper can be DB coach? Just get him a headset?

(Kidding - that pos needs to rot in jail)

Fritz knows its best not to win the offseason. Well, the Packers have been doing bang up job on that front.

Getsy to a nunnery!

Even for Green Bay in January, that's a slow news day.

He was an OC in two years in college

Compared to the other Yahoos MattyFloor is hiring this guy is grossly overqualified
