Barry is a solid DC. When he took over from Steckel MU's defense went from 20th in the nation to 5th (points allowed). It was, therefore, quite a surprise that when he ascended to HC in 2016 his defense dropped to 89th (118th in yards allowed) but he had turned the D over to DeMontie Cross, which proved to be a mistake. Even taking back the DC responsibilities mid-year was of little help.
I think BO is a good dude and I wish him well. I always thought the game moved a little too fast for him on game day in the HC role though. Maybe someday he will catch up, but I think for now and the foreseeable future he is in the role best suited for him.

Agreed. He’s a much better DC and he’ll be making $2M before too long. Don’t see him making a jump UNLESS it’s just something he can’t turn down
