Hujan 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. He's pretty well known in Corvallis. Quote Link to comment
4skers89 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 On the bright side, without knowing much about Banker, it's an upgrade from the previous "DC". Quote Link to comment

sd'sker Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 just googled "banker" and this was the result: One who conducts the business of banking; one who, individually, or as a member of a company, keeps an establishment for the deposit or loan of money, or for traffic in money, bills of exchange, etc. a little curious, but i am excited to see how this works out. 1 Quote Link to comment
walksalone Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 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. Thats a good thing, especially since he's the DC... that was the joke, my man. but also, i am really not surprised by this. and i will just give this hire the benefit of the doubt, though. also, you responded quickly. i edited my post. I will give the guy the benefit of the doubt as well... He has to know he's got the weapons to make this defense frightening again, and I hope he's able to do that... Quote Link to comment

I have concerns about him too. I'm not sure how he convinces Gregory to stay. Is he sticking with the 4-3? Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Good luck to him. Gonna take a lot of scrubbing to wash out the sh#t stain these last coaches called a defense. Read and react, spill-lever-spill, two gap horse crap. It can't get any worse than the nonsense we've been watching for the last three years. Any insight on what Bankers tendencies are would be awesome instead of the usual pissing and moaning because you've all never heard of the guy before. I'd be interested in knowing what kind of defense we can expect. I hope it's an attacking, shoot the gaps, play downhill, chase the ball til the whistle blows type of defense. Ya know, basically the opposite of what we've been watching. Time to let these kids play ball and get after it, like a defense is supposed to do. Instead of reading-reacting, hesitating and guessing.

Is he sticking with the 4-3? i would imagine he would stick with the 4-3 given our lack of lb's. also, i doubt anyone could have convinced gregory to stay. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 This isnt what i hoped for. Orgeron would have been a bigger get for recruiting and it would have made a good impression that we are building a powerful unit. This feels.....meh. Hope the increase in talent makes up for the lack of name valur. Quote Link to comment

My fear is that Riley's selection of Banker is motivated by a sense of "loyalty" and not wanting to be the dick who leaves his buddies behind. Getting a promotion and hiring new assistants instead of the ones you were with before is basically saying, "Yeah, you're not good enough." That would be hard to do. I hope Riley didn't subordinate the program's best interests just because he didn't want to have to hurt anyone's feelings. Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 We know how hiring your buddies turns out... Hope this one works out. Quote Link to comment

We shall see if he has the stones to can his buddy if the **** hits the fan. My gut feeling says no because he has followed Riley everywhere. Who knows maybe he will become our very own Bud Foster. He was loyal to Frank Beamer for a very long time. Quote Link to comment
