Phil Loadholt and Vincent Dancy are headed to Starkville

Less than 24 hours after Colorado’s blowout loss in the Alamo Bowl to the BYU Cougars, the coaching shuffle has officially begun. Two position coaches will be departing CU’s staff to head down south and coach in the SEC, according to CBS and 247 Sports’ Matt Zenitz.

Zenitz reports that Buffaloes offensive line coach Phil Loadholt and defensive ends coach Phil Loadholt will be leaving Boulder for Starkville after taking jobs to join Jeff Lebby’s staff at Mississippi State.

Loadholt grew up in Colorado and played his high school ball at Fountain-Fort Carson, where he originally committed to play for the Buffaloes before flipping his commitment to Oklahoma. After a successful playing career and a six-year NFL stint with the Minnesota Vikings, injuries forced Loadholt to retire and into coaching.

Loadholt would eventually return to his alma mater as an offensive analyst in 2022, staying with the Sooners for two seasons. He’d be poached by Deion Sanders and Colorado in early 2024 and offered his first position coaching job as CU’s offensive line coach, where he excelled in Boulder as a recruiter. Loadholt was instrumental in bringing five-star offensive lineman Jordan Seaton to Colorado and creating a recruiting pipeline to the prestigious IMG Academy, which is widely regarded as one of the best talent developing high school programs in the country.

After one season with Sanders and the Buffs, Loadholt will leave his post. Loadholt has previously worked with the MSU head coach, as Lebby was Oklahoma’s offensive coordinator during Loadholt’s time in Norman. Loadholt is expected to retain his same position with the Bulldogs.

CU defensive ends coach Vincent Dancy will be joining Loadholt in Starkville, taking a job to work with the Bulldogs’ edge rushers.

Dancy first joined forces with Coach Prime in Boulder in 2023, taking a job as defensive quality control coach for the Buffaloes. After being promoted to defensive ends coach in 2024, Dancy is now on the move.

Sanders alluded to the fact that there would be staff changes in his postgame presser after the Alamo Bowl, but the dominos are falling quickly. Coach Prime and the Buffaloes now have some holes in the staff to plug. We’ll keep you updated moving forward here at Ralphie Report as soon as any news breaks.
