Breaking JoBu Out

[redzoner]

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.

 

[Kinish]

I'll be underwhelmed to say the least.

significant upgrade to JoBu

 

[RedTillDead]

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.

Im assuming the $ as in a top 10 or better paid DC that would put us up there with the best of the best?

Still Meh

 

[ShortSideOption]

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.

No fuggin way

Big year coming up for Rhule, will he bring in a new guy or roll with the experienced DC he’s comfortable with?

 

[SOHusker11]

Calling it now Phil Snow will be the DC next year lmao

If he wanted the job he would have had it a long time ago.

 

[Irv]

Did Snow not have any responsibility for this year’s defense? Can’t imagine you can sell that, for many reasons.

 

[Kinish]

Still Meh

I do not think it's Snow.

But PMR needs to knock this one out of the park.

Also. Hope Donnie on the block today as well.

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.

Certainly not after the 2024 summer.

Tony was mad that Matt was spending all summer with John when Matt said he and Tony were BFFs on the last day of school. So Tony had to go to the pool with Pot Roast and James instead. Easy to see how things went south.

Need Bradden gone yesterday too

 

[BradWesley]

Decent chance it ends up just being Snow, which would put me on the fire Rhule train.

Jim Leonhard is with the Broncos as an assistant. I wonder why Wiscy passed him over.

I don't know shit about fronts, but on CFB26, my 4-3 works WAY better than the 335.... if that helps.

If he hires Leonhard I’ll go down to Lincoln and blow MR myself.

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.

 

[Irv]

Time for Garret to for up the DC nugs assembly line

 

[Herbie]

No way Snow gets promoted

 

[JerryBones5]

He's not leaving Penn State unless they really bungle that hire.

Seems like they already have to me, could be wrong though
