Newberry's expected promotion shows that Navy will be sticking to some of the principles of success under Niumatalolo.

That's fine, but Niumatalolo didn't have much success with Newberry as DC after his first season.

Not saying Navy's defense was necessarily the problem, but I think it's weird to promote from within so you can continue sticking to principles from the guy you fired.

This is sounding more and more like the AD fired Niumatalolo for personal reasons and not performance. Makes zero sense to elevate their DC when his defenses have been too mediocre to justify a promotion.
