This is an exciting hire. Finally the QBs on the roster will get actual coaching from someone that knows the position. Anxious to see what he can do in the recruiting trail as well.

Yay.

Wow. Not sure how many are going to agree, but I think this is a great hire. Tough season in NY....but he's a really good coach.

Side story...Nebraska's apparent new OC, Danny Langsdorf, donated a kidney to the wife of Nebraska's new OL coach in 2007, saving her life.

Here's the most recent write up of that event. Laurie Cavanaugh is the sister of Kevin Gilbride, longtime NFL coach. http://www.newsday.com/sports/football/giants/giants-quarterbacks-coach-danny-langsdorf-saved-kevin-gilbride-s-sister-s-life-1.7312391 …

This hire is pleasing to me.

I like that he can say he has coached a two time superbowl winning QB...That can only help on the recruiting trail...

Happy New Year!

Curious what his pay was with the Giants and what it will be here?

Why did he leave the staff in 2013 at Oregon St.

Didn't realize he had a tie to Gilbride, Coughlin's long time OC before this year. Makes sense though. Whether he calls plays or not, excited to have him working with the QBs.

Riley is hiring assistants he formerly worked with ("friends"). I guess the difference between Bo and Riley is the fact that Riley has so much more experience and contacts that his social network includes a wider berth of experienced assistants. Good hire.

 

[GM_Tood]

Nice hire.

Why did he leave the staff in 2013 at Oregon St.

Apparently had some connections to the Giants:

Langsdorf, 41, served on the New Orleans Saints' coaching staff with Ben McAdoo, the new Giants offensive coordinator, in 2004. At the time, Langsdorf was the assistant wide receivers/special teams coach and McAdoo was an offensive assistant. Langsdorf donated a kidney in 2007 to Laurie Cavanaugh, OSU offensive line coach Mike Cavanaugh's wife and the sister of recently retired Giants offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride.
