Brian Jenkins

From what I saw Jenkins was a hard azz on his players. He and coach Mason yelled non stop. Mason was just funny when yelling but Jenkins was brutal on guys during practice

This is more commonly known as being "Old School".

exactly right, and he did his yelling to hide his lack of knowledge. if i yell loud enough they'll listen.

no, i like old school, and some times thats what it takes to get a player to get it through their head.

i think your son can attest to that. i do believe jenkins thought he was old school, but some of the decisions made in meeting rooms made no sense at all, and we had to go back and change them because they made no sense and put us in a very bad position on the field.

Okay, cool it's good to know that having a personal relationship or connection to something makes you an expert. I will go with the fact the Jenkins was a hell of a recruiter while at UL, good position coach, got hired away by a Top 25 program at the time, has a successful record as a head coach, and just got another head coaching job. But take DMS's word for it....lol. So where are the rest of the guys he worked with on Bustle's staff, please let me know.

I have no commection to him (Jenkins) so I could careless how he was viewed here, but Blake Anderson is HC at Arkansas State. Much better gig.

I am sorry I asked about Coach Jenkins.

I just noticed he got a new HC gig and this got out of hand.

Blake Anderson spent one year hear and went to Southern Miss and UNC with Larry Fedora, now at Arky State. He is one hell of a football coach. There are a few guys that are out of football and some that landed in other spots, Bustle included. I just knew Jenkins from his time here and knew him as a hard-worker, all I'm saying is that his track record speaks for itself.

I also work through the football program with Jenkins for a few years. he would share with me that a lot of decisions are some time above his head. Most position coaches feel the same way.

I love playing basketball with at the Rec Center on campus. He became like a father to me and many of my friends. the guy is a straight shooter. As I grew older in life I appreciate everything he shared with me and made me a better man.you have to have tough skin to tolerate Jenkins. guys may have hated him on the practice field, but those are the same guys that he would go to bat for if they were in need of help

It sounds like Jenkins is the kind of Coach you either Love or Hate. Apparently not much middle ground.

I don't see this as getting out of hand, you posted something positive about a former UL coach getting a head job. And typical of today's society someone gets on here and bashes something positive, such a negative world we live in.
