marcbvtgm • 03/06/25 02:22 PM ET
Exactly...
Techsupport • 03/06/25 02:44 PM ET
I think OC was an A+ hire (upgrade), DC a C+ (push). Overall net upgrade
Techsupport • 03/06/25 01:52 PM ET
Defensive coach was a big upgrade
Happy Dog • 03/07/25 08:49 AM ET
A guy with years experience as a DC in P5 college football would be an A
