New DB Coach - Charlton Warren

Being a DC would give him the ability to organize the special teams. Does he have any experience as a special teams cordinator? I realize that is often an unofficial title.

I was thinking the same thing. It sounds like Bo is looking to improve discipline on the entire team, not just the secondary. Here's hoping this hire, and any other responsibility changes, result in more forced TOs, less TOs by the offense, and a huge improvement in special teams.

Agree. Said this in another thread. The guys playing at the service academies and other military colleges (The Citadel, VMI) are generally under sized, not as athletic and not many "stars". Watching some play the traditional powers looks like HS vs NFL. A real disparity, BUT these schools find a way to stay competitive and at times win. This is done through playing sound, fundamental football. Playing angry, as under dogs and with a chip on your shoulder. Warren knows this and teaches this. This, IMO, will pay huge dividends for NU. The whole "we thought they would roll over for us" excuse is about to get kicked to the curb.

Some of his former players called in an said things like "he likes the corners to play man", "play aggressive", "he likes to bump and run", "he allowed me to play angry" etc..... Sounds like another DB coach we had and wanted.........Sanders. I like it.

Throw in his discipline, attention to detail, excitement to recruit and aggressive style and we might have a winner.

Looks to be a solid and exciting addition to the staff. I'm not seeing any downside here. Welcome aboard CW.

The thing that worries me is that he is labelled by sportswriter David Ramsey as their best recruiter, and then in the same article talks about how they lacked division one talent. I believe in his abilities, but there are some contradictions.

I don't think so. You're getting pretty far down the list of recruits by the time you get to the guys who are even considering Air Force. Most of the "division one talent" isn't even considering going there - let alone able to get in - so there's not a lot they can do. You can still recruit the guys you have a chance with, they're just not five-star talent.

I just hope he is a good recruiter. Aside from that, he'll just be a yes man for Bo just like the rest of the staff.

I don't think any graduates of the service academies would appreciate you call them a 'yes man.'

You would be surprised how many real world officers are Yes Men! Especially in the Air Force, there is a reason RHIP exists "Rank Has It's Privildges". The services are no different than any major corporation. More cronies than free thinkers.

Warren fired up about recruiting. “I’m going to freaking hammer it,” he said. “I’m going to go after it as hot as I can & as hard as I can.”

This guy is really off to a good start in my book. Wasting no time. Go get em man.

 
Me too. I feel like this is one that might be going really, really right. Hey, of course it's blind optimism. What month do you think it is?? Still.
