Brent Pry Finds a Home .

[BTG]

Our Former Cord, Brent Pry, signed on with the Memphis Tigers, as defensive line coach. According to Brent, it was the job he was hoping for, after being released at UL. He left us with a very heavy heart, but told me it was his goal to possibly return to UL one day, if the opportunity ever arose again. The short time I knew Brent, he proved to me to be one of the classiest individuals I've ever met. Congrats, Coach Pry. We'll miss youand best of luck to you. GO MEMPHIS TIGERSwith the exception of if we meet on the playing fieldLOL.

BTG, I dont think there is anyone that met Coach Pry that didnt like him. It must have been tough on Coach Bustle to pull the plug on those guys. Best of luck to him at Memphis.

Just a bump for anyone interested that Brent found work

I am glad to hear that Coach Pry has found another good D1 job. Keep in mind, he is still very young, especially to have been a coordinator. He comes from a coaching family and should have a successful career.

  The 37-year-old Pry arrives in Memphis having spent the last five seasons at Louisiana-Lafayette (ULL). During Pry's time at UL, the Ragin' Cajuns won a Sun Belt Conference championship and saw three defensive players selected in the NFL draft. Having played collegiately as a safety at Buffalo, Pry has taken a unique path to overseeing defensive linemen.

"I've coached them all," Pry stresses. "When I went to Virginia Tech as a grad assistant, I coached the line for three years. I coached the secondary at Western Carolina, and I've also coached linebackers. We had some great defenses at Virginia Tech, and that was primarily because of our front four. You can take a ball game over from the defensive line. If they can't block you up front, they can't do much of anything."

Pry seems every bit as happy to be in Memphis as West is to add him to the mix. "I wanted to work for Tommy West six years ago," he explains, "and it didn't work out, but I've always had a great amount of respect for him. Coming from Virginia Tech and knowing Tommy when he was at Clemson, I've got a lot of respect for the kind of defensive coach he was. I also had a close relationship with [new defensive coordinator] Rick Kravitz."

Though new to the Mid-South, Pry has a feel for the lay of the land. And he has a unique perspective — optimism, remember — on the team he inherits. "Coming from the Sun Belt Conference," Pry reflects, "we played a lot of Conference USA schools, so I had an idea of what was good and what wasn't in this league, and I was very impressed with the talent on this football team. [Last year's] record was not indicative of the talent."

I am also sure he received a substantial pay increase as well I wish him well as I do with anyone that is associated with the program

I also think he's been smoking something. Did you see the comment in the article "In the Sun Belt, maybe the top 10 guys could play in this league".
