Why not keep BVG? Or get Ellis Johnson.

The people who all pine for Gus are the ones who have some hardon for Rocker. One good year and all the sudden they are the end all be all of coaches

I'd like to have Ellis Johnson over BVG...

I know BVG was a stud defensive coordinator back in the day, but even he admitted he really struggles against the spread offense and running quarterbacks. Ellis Johnson had that South Carolina defense tough.

I'll clarify. I don't believe I have ever said anything negative about Rocker. I like him and I think his demeanor could be an incredible addition to Gus' staff. He's a no nonsense sort of guy.

However, I argued that he was unproven due to the fact that he inherited a deep, deep unit. However, he developed guys like Blanc and Fairley.

That's pretty much it

I could fap to Joe Whitt Jr, can't see Twill making that big of a jump.

What I liked most about him was his ability to get his players to give max effort.

If true, why even have a HC search. This was all pointless. Now just waiting on jj to have former players under malzahn lined up to support the hire. Seems like we've gone through this before.



I feel like we hired a head coach that needs a really good group of guys around him to look good. I want a head coach that makes his assistant looks good. chiz 2.0

Not on offense, Gus will completely control that side of the ball.

Inexperienced HC and zero experience DC? What could go wrong?

Randy Shannon
Ellis Johnson
Brian Van Gorder

That should pretty much be the list.
