During the Kelly era, Denbrock was actually the only bright spot on the coaching staff.

You can say Baker has done a lot for the D (and he has) but Denbrock cultivated an elite offense in 2023.

A lot of us thought Sloan may have been the secret sauce to JD's 2nd year rise. But the truth is Denbrock showed what he could do with elite skill players and we would be lucky to still have him.

If anyone deserves the credit for bringing another Heisman to BR (apart from JD) it's him

Sloan probably could've got something out of Jayden if for some reason he was forced to return.

I have a lot of buddies who are ND fans and watch more of their games than I’d like to admit. What he has done with CJ Carr as a RS frosh is impressive.

ND fans would come undone if Freeman comes to LSU. I like Freeman but I wonder how much of his success is due to Riley Leonard last year and then Carr, Love and Price this year.

Jayden Daniels would make me look like a good offensive coordinator.

Mike Denbrick is the only man who wanted Mike Denbrock to leave.

Well, maybe Jayden Daniels and four drafted offensive lineman had more to do for it. He was the only coach in the last four years with exceptional talent.

And I forgot to include he had two first round wife receivers, and a highly talented tight end.

Still never gave us a top tier rushing offence.

Why not Denbrock for head coach?

stupid analogy. so joe brady was a moron because joe burrow? you saw the X and o difference with burrow from 2018 to 2019 because of brady.

brady and denbrock were great with X ands O's most the time.

Who thought this?

Denbrock is a solid oc but he didn't do anything special.

He had Jaden daniels, nabers, btj, Mason Taylor, will campbell, and Emery Jones.

Yeah, having a Heisman QB run your offense really doesn't make much of a difference most of the time.

Only after someone with a name that rhymes with Goody made the call to promote Sloan to Co-OC. I’d probably leave to for having to share play-calling duties with that doofus.
