Breaking JoBu Out

Never seen this actually supported by anything. Any details you can share or point me to?
We elevated Snow's involvement at the end of the 2023 season while he was with the Bears behind the scenes and then brought him back for the 2024 season, which pissed Tony White off since he was a top 10 total defense and top 15 scoring defense. He wanted more of his guys to help him with his defense, not more guys he wasn't familiar with. Then when Cooper was let go in the summer, he again had no input in who his DB coach would be and we actually went with someone that vocally stated their entire goal was to become a DC someday. So either White was just going to have to be ok with the new hire leaving at first chance to run a defense and train yet another new person, or he was hired to replace him.

This is a problem with Rhule. He needs to get an external stud who can bring a great start. Stop developing coaches who can’t execute right now. Hopefully Dannen can push this where it needs to go.
 
I also hope we move away from the 3 man fronts. There isn't enough NT talent around us to play that defense.

I think we have pretty good personnel to roll out a 4 man front and not have to go find another Jack that is also hardly available to us.
I don't know shit about fronts, but on CFB26, my 4-3 works WAY better than the 335.... if that helps.
 
It sounds like he has the money to hire a big-name guy now. I think we are going to be very happy with this DC hire.

Right on, I think I actually remember you posting this a while back now.

I think my feeling was how shortsighted TW was being regarding having people with experience you can bounce ideas off of in the room. I get wanting control and the coach-ego aspect, but let's not kid ourselves, we were always bitching about coverage under TW.

The DB coach nug is new, though. Definitely something that would've pissed me off as well. Thanks.
