That struck me as odd, too. You'd think he'd have a pretty full Rolodex by now.
Yeah...I think he has been pretty isolated...but it still something that kind of bugs me a bit...1. Really well respected but might not know a lot of guys
2. Might be bringing most/all of his old staff
3. Offense is a hodgepodge/multiple
Not the end of the world but just things that kind of made me go "hmmmm"
He's been here a single day folks. Give him some time....he's got plenty of it.
Thats just it...he doesn't have plenty of time. He is starting recruiting today, he said...time is up.Exactly. He doesn't have plenty of time, he needs to get to work yesterday.I,agree with you about all of your concerns.
I was expecting him to win the press conference, but I wasn't impressed.
I said last night that this hire seemed very callahanesque, after hearing this press conference and everything about this guy, he seems more Doc Sadler to me.
Given the negativity you have had over this hire in general, your comments are not surprising.It's funny that our previous staff got killed for having a Hodge podge offense with no identity, yet this guy gets a pass.
If he brings the majority of his staff from OSU, if his record is any indication of their ability, then we shouldn't expect much better than what we've had the past 15 years.
I think that those are real concerns.
I think what he was alluding to is changing the offense season to season to better fit the team; not necessarily having a ridiculous amount of formations and plays that they throw at defenses like a dart at a spinning board, aka, Beckfest.
