Woodward's Bio shows that he had a stint with my namesake, the Texas Terror! ;)
Woodard is a native of east Texas, born in Lufkin, Texas and attended Corrigan-Camden High School (Corrigan) participating in football, basketball, baseball and track. He was a two-time All-American at Kilgore College (1980, 1981), and a two year starter at The University of Texas in 1982-83. He was an eighth-round pick in 1984 of the San Diego Chargers, played five seasons for the Chargers, Broncos, and Chiefs and was a member of the 1986 Denver Bronco Super Bowl team. He began coaching in 1988 for eight seasons at Kilgore College and was TJCFC Champions in 1990. He coached professionally for Texas Terror, Arena Football, and spent four seasons as a defensive coordinator in NFL Europe. Woodard has been married for 25 years to Penne Woodard and they have one daughter, Jessica (21).

So is this a good move or not for the Lamar University football program, based off of what you are seeing with his experience?
