Who Is Maurice Linguist Wife?
Maurice Linguist has married his wife, Stacie Linguist, for almost a decade. The couple tied the knot in 2014.
Stacie, by profession, is a lawyer who practices at Faegre Baker Daniels Law Firm.
Maurice and Stacie met when they were both at Baylor University. Maurice was a junior, and his wife, Stacie, was a freshman at Baylor.
According to Maurice, he sat with many football players when Stacy walked in with friends and immediately fell in love with her.
On the same day, Maurice invited her to lunch and told Stacy that despite not knowing each other well, he would marry her one day.
Even though Stacy initially thought he was crazy. However, she soon fell deeply in love with him. After dating for some time, they got married.
Now, whenever Stacy recalls the time, she is reminded of how Maurice still remembers exactly what she wore: a black jacket with a bit of fur.
Similarly, the couple has three children: 6-year-old Maura Linguist, 4-year-old Lance Linguist, and a year-old Leon Maurice Linguist.
Linguist Resigns From Buffalo? Where Next?
Reports suggest Maurice Linguist informed the University at Buffalo about his resignation as the football coach after three seasons.
Moreover, he agreed to join Kalen DeBoer’s staff at Alabama, as confirmed by a person familiar with discussions with the media.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the discussions were private.
Also, DeBoer has not yet announced his staff upon leaving Washington to coach the Crimson Tide.
Later, Buffalo athletic director Mark Alnutt announced Linguist’s departure in a three-sentence release without going into detail.
Now, the school has also initiated a national search for his replacement.
After Kansas hired Lance Leipold, the 39-year-old Linguist assumed the position at Buffalo in 2021.
Linguist had spent the 2020 season as a defensive backs coach with the NFL Dallas Cowboys.
Likewise, he had just been hired to become a co-defensive coordinator at Michigan before landing the job in Buffalo.
