Meh. You dont have people from inside the program vocally speak out against you unless you are a real jackass. What happened with the death is what it is, but there were also a bunch of not great things said about how he ran the program at large and you dont get those accusations lightly

No, there really weren't many at all. The big complaints was that his strength coach "fat shamed" people and used homophobic slurs. They made a kid eat candy bars while his teammates worked out, because he wouldn't lose weight.

His whole firing was overblown social media crap that followed in the wake of a terrible tragedy.

Durkin was a hot name in our last DC search. Now not so much. He’s still a good coordinator. But I would rather promote. I thought that was jimbo’s plan but I guess not.

Either way I think the DC hire would have to be an abysmal failure not to have success with the talent we have on the defensive side of the ball.
