Changes on Defense?

Was Fisher coaching all of those positions in the past, but now is coaching just corner and nick?
 
I would have thought that Busch would help out with the safeties and Chins would help with the OLBs. When they brought Busch on board, and they were going to lose a coach on defense I thought that was supposedly the plan.
Are they setting it up so he can fire Chins next week and Busch takes over safeties and DC?

Doesn't make much sense to have Chins go to safeties and Fisher to nickel on the surface.

Or maybe Fisher DC

I wouldn't be surprised if Mickey tries to get rid of Chins, but we'll have to wait and see, I guess.

Like I was saying above to me it would have made more sense to have Chins help with OLB and free up Dawson to just work with the DL and then Busch to help with the Safeties and Fisher CBs and Nickels.

Another thing now that Frost is gone Mickey could move up someone like Vokolek's dad to assistant to help out with the defense too.

Practice may move to the afternoons instead of mornings.
This one is kind of interesting to me because Frost stole the 8am practice thing from Chip Kelly at Oregon. And it's funny to see Frost stick to that now that he's many yrs removed from working with Chip. It's ironic bc the big dipper was often late to those 8am practices (allegedly), setting a wonderful example to his team.

The 8am practices clearly aren't working for us. And they also cause a lot of problems with the players' class schedules bc they can't attend any morning classes. My guess is 75% of CFB programs hold practice in the afternoon for that reason. IDK it's just funny that Frost stuck to this for so long when (a) they clearly weren't working and (b) MF was hungover every day and missed practice times anyway.

Frost is such a gigantic moron. I can't wait to see some of the other simple things that Mickey can immediately fix.
