    Since he is no longer the DC at Clemson, I guess not.

    LSU Reveille:

    Koenning said he spoke to several LSU coaches around Thanksgiving but denied any specific offers were discussed ... Koenning was rumored to be a candidate for Miles’ staff in 2005 before he accepted a position under Tommy Bowden at Clemson. "There was some dialogue then," Koenning said. "I had already told Tommy Bowden that I would go to Clemson. I try to stick to what I say." Koenning, a former Kansas State player, is rumored to be a defensive coordinator candidate for Kansas State’s new coach Bill Snyder. ... Koenning said his wife would prefer to stay in the Gulf Coast region if an opportunity were available.

    The article also said that:

    Koenning, 48, resigned as defensive coordinator Tuesday after Clemson hired new coach Dabo Swinney. He then moved his family, including his wife Tracey and three school-aged sons, to Orange Beach and enrolled the children in school. “We had one of the top defenses, and I didn’t feel like we were being appreciated,” he said. “I said my piece and moved on. I got away from that situation. I just got down [to Orange Beach] late this afternoon.”

    Orange Beach, AL (adjacent to Gulf Shores) is only 250 miles from Baton Rouge.

    He didn't name any names... does that make it different?

    I doubt it.

    I think it has to do with the fact he isn't currently a member of any college football staff.

    Koenning’s departure comes as no surprise, despite the fact his defense was arguably the backbone during Swinney’s successful six-game audition as interim coach. The two were believed to have philosophical differences
