@ Diego_Ricardo: cool that you’re one-quarter Dutch. In Dutch, the ‘oe’ in Kalen DeBoer is pronounced like the ‘oo’ in cool.
If indeed DeBoer brings in his OC, OL-coach and WR-coach, this should be a massive upgrade.
-Our O-line improved last year, but was far from elite (sacks, snap-issues). I guess it was still closer to the Doug Marrone (who is OL coach for the NO Saints, I noticed)-days than the Kyle Flood-days. I’d be more than happy to see a fresh face come in after 2 years of Eric Wolford as O-line coach.
-Tommy Rees proved, as the season progressed, that perhaps he wasn’t as bad as he was depicted here in some of the threads on this board after the first few games. But you cannot compare him in ANY way, shape or form to the Kalen DeBoer/Ryan Grubb combo. That’s true elite stuff right there.
-Our wide receivers have just fallen off from the Smith, Waddle, Jeudy and Ruggs days. I don’t know where the blame lies (recruiting and/or development), but I understand that the Washington WR-coach, JaMarcus Shephard, is elite as well.
On defense I hope DeBoer goes all-in on a young guy with Alabama ties like Glenn Schuman. Make him THE man, whereas at Uga he hasn’t been that (with the shadow of Kirby and Musschamp hoovering over him). I’m assuming Schuman’s a great area recruiter as well (knowing how important recruiting is for Smart). He could coach up our ILB’s as well.
