Currently the defensive coordinator of the Washington football team. Interesting career arc.

He was an actual surprise as a defensive coordinator for us. Those years after the natty were a shitshow and I choose to just ignore they existed. BTW Max Johnson is still playing college football. Lol

If Burger King had retained him, we might’ve had a shot in 2023

I think he was also held back a little bit by the head coach at the time and did not have full control of the scheme or personnel.

He actually was pretty good if I recall. I hope he does well.

From what I remember he seemed like a really good family man and all around good person. He was just over his skis as a big time OC. I wish him well

He was actually a good DC and just had too little time to get it done.

That dude had I don’t know how many delay of games because he couldn’t even get the play in on time. Those were wild times for a D1 football team.

His game plan against Alabama (twenty-seven point underdogs we were) was a thing of beauty
