Sounds like Mario is still pushing his offense. Also sounds like our WRs are stupid
Guidry seems like a guy that you can talk to over beers for hours.
How did you determine that?Sounds like Mario is still pushing his offense. Also sounds like our WRs are stupid
How did you determine that?
Based on Dawson's press conference. He's already stating "who we are" as a run first team. Also in talking about receivers he mentions that it's a position that is normally on the slow end around this time and didn't express too much on the positive side.How did you determine that?
That's not what he said. He didn't say it's a run-first team. He said he wants to be physical with backs and TEs because it builds toughness for a team. But if they can run it, they can throw it for more because the D will be drawn to defend the run.Based on Dawson's press conference. He's already stating "who we are" as a run first team. Also in talking about receivers he mentions that it's a position that is normally on the slow end around this time and didn't express too much on the positive side.
My takeaways from each of the interviews:
1) Shannon Dawson
- TVD is the guy. Extremely accurate and picks up things fast.- He seems very intrigued by Browns skillset. Said he's got everything.- Will take it slow with Emory.- Grew up watching the canes of old and has to pinch himself that he's at the U.- Knocked it out of the park with Beard and Harris Jr. as position coaches.- Adapts scheme to players on roster.- Has an idea of who will be the go to WR but won't say who (my guess is X).My initial take: breath of fresh air compared to Gattis who seemed **** bent on running his scheme. I'll wait and see but early reviews are positive.
2) Lance Guidry
- He embraces being cajun lol.- Kam - really intelligent, bell cow of the defense, will ask him to do even more.- Caleb Spencer - young, don't know a lot yet.- Fell in love with the old Miami teams with how they played and the swagger.- Very excited for JT to be leading the D Line. Called him a future D Coordinator at the college or NFL level.- Called Derek Nicholson special and a future DC as well. He shoutout Addae as well.- 4-2-5 is base D.- Loves giving pregame speeches (can't wait).- Calls Mauigoa a natural player. My initial take: he oozes passion and energy. This guy gets you fired up. Can't wait to see what he does with this defense.
And that’s what you took from his presser?Based on Dawson's press conference. He's already stating "who we are" as a run first team. Also in talking about receivers he mentions that it's a position that is normally on the slow end around this time and didn't express too much on the positive side.
I told myself I wouldn’t drink the kool-aid but Guidry is about to make me start telling lies again.
Stay strong brotha’.
True, and the humidity level should be super familiar...........................soggy, bud...........Being from Louisiana, coaching in southern Mississippi, and then Houston, and you think he's not used to the heat or humidity? He's a Cajun, he's not from the Arctic
South Florida is cooler than those places on average during the summer so I'm sure he's plenty used to it.
Thought the same thing,............unreal...........good post...................Canemc
I'll take it and theSince we virtually ran off all of our "Star" players because of Steele's system..who do we have that can play that role currently on the roster?
Both guys seem really down to earth and likeable. Ive heard the "I cater my scheme to fit my personnel" way too often around Hecht over the last decade to just take Dawson's word for it so lets hope hes not a liar like the rest of them were.
HOT TAKE: Guidry is going to be Mario's sidekick for as long as hes here as HC. I think Mario was looking for a "hitman" and found one. Everyone needs a "Mickey Andrews" type who will be with you for 20 years and never leave and Mario knew that and took a chance on a guy who has 3 DUIs and will be forever grateful and loyal for Mario giving him a shot at the major leagues when nobody else would. Just my take especially after seeing this interview.
