Promoting Brick vs Players learning a new system.

It took Beckwith so long because Welter was Chavis' pet. Blatant favoritism is what kept KB off the field.

ETA: It's important to keep the long game in mind. You can't just make a hire for the sake of continuity.

YEP! Let's run a 2nd hand version of Chavis' D so we don;t have to go through the trouble of learning a new defense.

Will you be happy if we promote Brick and don't land Coach O? Because that's what I think will happen, unfortunately.

It took Beckwith (just one example), 2 years to learn Chavis system well enough to finally supplant Welter.(think about Jamal Adams too). Like most of you, I was "all for" bringing in a proven commodity at D.C. (LSU being too big of a program to promote from within). But the more I think about it, especially considering the recent developments (other coaches not materializing ). Maybe we should just promote Brick & bring in coach Orgeron. Vs players having to learn a complicated new system.

It's like someone wiped everyone's brain of 2008. That was the argument then in favor of Les paying his buddies instead of him hiring someone who actually was qualified to lead and call a defense. They didn't have to learn a new system we were told. Mallory apparently was a genius at film breakdown. Yet, the defense was atrocious. We hired a proven guy with a new system for the guys to learn, and like magic, the defense was good again. So, no. Let the kids learn what to do from someone who knows what to do.

Did you just call moscona or did someone see this and call in?

Exactly.....and I was one of the people supporting the promotion or at least I got the thinking behind it.

Why wasn't Miss St wowed by his experience under Chavis to give him a look at DC twice now? shite....why hasn't anyone?

Look. This might work out if it happens.

But there is no denying that if Miles ends up doing this, it will be because he couldn't land someone worth a shite.

Now, we can debate on this board all we want about the quality of Miles' ability, but if we settle for Brick, then we will have just witnessed the coaching community's vote of no-confidence regarding Miles at this moment.

Sure. It's possible all those coaches are wrong.........but, they do know more than any posi or negatiger on this board.

Actions speak louder than words.

if we win the first 3 games this year who will care period

we hire we win all is fine !!!
