According to FootballScoop, former Kansas offensive line coach Luke Meadows is expected to join the Troy staff in the same role.
He was fired from Kansas by Les Miles... but to be fair, Kansas is hard for any coach to be successful. That's like going to Vanderbilt... it's career suicide. But Meadows has been successful everywhere else he has been.
He was actually (The HC we don’t speak of) (The HC we don’t speak of)'s O-Line coach at Southern Miss when (The HC we don’t speak of) (The HC we don’t speak of) was OC there. They did win a CUSA division title while they were together.
In (The HC we don’t speak of)/Meadows' last year at USM together, USM's offense only allowed 1.8 sacks per game (Troy allowed 2.0 this season), had 180 rush yards per game (Troy had 103 this season), 329 pass yards per game (Troy had 290 this season), scored 40 points per game (Troy scored 27 ppg this season), they were #19 in the nation converting 3rd Downs (Troy was #26 this season), and #12 in the nation in Total Offense (Troy was #65 this season).
This may be a good pairing, assuming (The HC we don’t speak of) and Meadows seemingly do well together. Maybe he'll bring some maturity to the O-Line room.

We need improvement on the OL. I think it is a positive that they are bringing in a new perspective.

At least he knows the system.

Looks to be a fit. No 'Barn connection. Must be some mistake.

We will probably get a journeyman coach from South Dakota.
Man Hemi nailed it on the head. I am curious reading his bio from Kansas...did he actually play college ball? It doesn't list it
