Maher is ST Coordinator

📈Big gains for NU in 2025

You can tell they’ve gone to the Clickbait Content Pushing School. They always, without fail, have one word in all caps in the title of their video podcasts. It’s a small thing but it bugs the crap out of me.

Yeah it’s super cringy, and I don’t even understand this one. Did he mean 2026 or is he saying last year was big gains?

I forgot that Maher was our starter at both kicker & punter. Dude should have a strong intellectual knowledge of basically every special teams aspect - hopefully he can coach it well.

Tommie Frazier would be a great dual-threat QB coach

If he didn’t play for us, would we be excited about it? That’s always my barometer for hires like this.

The answer, by the way, is “no.”

But with assistant coach hires, 85% of the time it’s someone we’ve never heard of. So I don’t know if us being excited upon hearing the news is a very good barometer.

It will either go good or bad, but we will all be one day closer to death regardless

Yeah, but not until tomorrow.

Let's hope that they picked up Ekeler's mindset and philosophies while they were coaching together.

Maybe not all his philosophies. If Barney takes one more kickoff out of the end zone and returns it to the 16 they should bench him in that role forever.

I don’t even know why Barney is returning kicks to be honest. Punts are his thing and he’s good at it. Kickoff return is a different skill. Requires vision. Barney’s skill is reacting quicker than most people.

Any evidence of a kicker being a good special teams coordinator? Anywhere at any level?

Well, we have a Olineman coaching The Lions and that sterotypically sounds like a more impressive feat than a kicker being a good coach....
