DL Coach Hawt Board v2.0

I don’t mean to come off as a homer guys. I never crossed paths with Aaron. I know a lot of people who have. But he wouldn’t know me and I wouldn’t know him if I saw him on the bus.

What I’ll say is that you can be of the opinion that you want someone else. Totally fine. But honestly, the guy put 3 of his DL on all conference teams in the ACC this year in Lubin, Van Den Berg, and Copeland. Two of those guys have eligibility left in Lubin (8.5 sacks in the ACC) and Copeland (VaTech DT) and Van Den Berg could find himself getting a Deigo Pavia waiver (315 LB NT who was first team all conference).

So Aaron is not a bad football coach at all and there’s not a doubt in my mind he’ll get a D1 opportunity extremely soon.

We could do much worse.
With any luck, Terry could help put some of our DL into P4
 
Terry is a better hire than Bradden, the dude can coach DL and recruits his ass off. We could do a lot worse and I was expecting us to.
I know I'm the founder of the HES, but I have been quietly pretty pessimistic with how the DL coaching search has been handled. And I'm not just saying this from the HES perspective, if this ends up being the hire, I kind of love it. He has been elite at developing DL at IWCC. He has players that he could POTENTIALLY poach some instant impact guys. I'd actually be pretty excited about this hire.
 
You’d also likely be able to grab his DT this year that got 12.5 sacks that just got a Clemson offer and Texas Tech is sniffing around.
Strictly from bringing a potential impact guy this year perspective, that guy may be a higher end add than what a lot of P4 DL coaches could bring this year.

The connection with also potentially poaching some of his previous guys now in big boy schools is something intriguing I hadn't considered.

If a DL coach could bring you 3 p4 all-conference players and another who got 12.5 sacks at the juco level it pretty much solves a major problem at DL.
