Eric the Red Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Also on “Sports Nightly,” Riley referenced Mark Banker as his defensive coordinator, a tag that he hadn’t previously applied when Riley first announced four assistant coaches that would be following him from Oregon State. Banker had been Riley’s defensive coordinator in Corvallis for 14 seasons, and the two also were together with the San Diego Chargers. Quote Link to comment
Danny Bateman Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Well, guess we'll see how he does with much better talent. At least he's not short on experience. He did have one very good year in 2012. Top 30 defensive unit. Very impressive playing SC, Stanford, UCLA, etc. Quote Link to comment

swmohusker Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Can we still hope that he is a co defensive coordinator? 1 Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 oh look, walks is not impressed with a coordinator. 1 Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Hmmmmm. Hoping the OC is a known, successful hire........anxious to see what Riley can do. Quote Link to comment
Sparker Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Hmmmmm. Hoping the OC is a known, successful hire........anxious to see what Riley can do. The Callahan and Pelini eras would seem to indicate success is quite difficult without quality coaching on both sides of the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment
walksalone Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 oh look, walks is not impressed with a coordinator. And i'm sure he's the guy you were hoping for... Quote Link to comment
sd'sker Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 oh look, walks is not impressed with a coordinator. And i'm sure he's the guy you were hoping for... i really did not have anyone in mind other than orgeron, but that is only because of what i have heard of him. i really do not know how great he would be here or how great his defenses are. but at least we will not have to worry about him passing on 3rd and 2. so there's that. and i am just giving you a hard time, fyi fwiw.

Treand3 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Well, guess we'll see how he does with much better talent. At least he's not short on experience. He did have one very good year in 2012. Top 30 defensive unit. Very impressive playing SC, Stanford, UCLA, etc. That defense that year was pretty good. Pretty much shut Jonathan Franklin down and kept ucla's entire offense in check for much of the game, just weeks after they shredded Nebraska. Quote Link to comment
