2018 Football Staff

[Just1More]

so wait... we're excited about a big 12 DB coach leading our defense? he led a group that allowed 33 passing tds last year.

What are y'all smoking?

He wasn't running their defense. You have a head coach and a DC you have to listen to. Napier may recognize a good mind for defense and a tremendous recruiter in LA and TX... and until I see differently... it could be a great combination. I'm looking at it from 50,000 feet... and my lense is foggy. Napier is seeing it up close and personal with good eyes and a football brain.

I think that the fact that Coach Napier likes what he sees in this Coach is enough for me....I wasn't hired as Head Coach and it's up to him to put together a great staff. From what I was told this afternoon about this man I am fine with this hire. If Napier didn't think he could handle the job he would not have offered it.

If Napier and Basin are good with it... we are all good with it!

Very young coach if he graduated in 2013

Apparently he went back to school to graduate. Was coaching at a high school in California in 2008.

Everyone can have their own opinion on this and I get that. I love the passion of our fans. It's all a roll of the dice guys from hiring Napier who by the way has no head coaching experience to every coach....it's up to the AD to choose a Head Coach that will be highly successful down to that HC putting together a staff that will lead us to success....

The landscape of football has been evolving a lot lately. You are seeing younger and younger coaches rising up the ranks. Just look at the Rams and Sean McVay. He is only 30 years old.

A young staff that is hungry and willing to put in a lot of hours. High energy is the word for this group thus far.

Pass coverage requires talent run stopping requires coaching

Are you being serious? Jokes and sarcasm are sometimes hard to pick up on when typed.
