Fran Brown for DC?

[Problem2]

Dude been at temple his whole career. How do you know he can recruit?

No he hasn’t

He was at Baylor for a few years

And got Thornton to flip from Florida among others

I don't know a thing about Fran and never claimed to. My bad I just mis-read the OP as OC instead of DC.

He would be the DC, not OC

 

[AK_Cane]

Love it, that co-coordinator crap was for the birds.

Think he would still be a co with Banda

 

[mirvin88]

I'd stick one foot on the bandwagon if Manny did this and put Banda/Patke back to their previous roles. Alpha move and against his own boys.

Was the co-dc at Baylor. Was actually hired by Diaz as DC at temple.

Was he the DC cause thats not what anything says.. Phil snow was DC.....this guy was DB coach

But this would make since. HC no experience....DC no experience but thats what we were going to get.....lets go for the hat trick and get an OC with no experience

Well he isn't an OC. He'd be the DC.

 

[Genghis Cane]

Would be a fire move on Mannys part. Banda and Patke have no business calling plays.

This.

 

[Milkcane]

Apparently Manny hired him as co-DC at Temple?

Maybe he'll bring him down to join Patke and Banda as the third co-DC?

What a waste that would be. Make Banda the sp teams coach. Hardley needs to be relieved of those duties ASAP!

 

[Jedi Master Cane]

Well he isn't an OC. He'd be the DC.

Yeah I screwed that up and misread. Don't know anything about the guy.

 

[jmiller]

Brown and Banda for co DC. Patke odd man out

When your head coach was the DC himself, it is less of a risk.

 

[CANEMC]

Patke and Banda will be filling the hydration specialist roles.

 

[htownkidd]

Was Co-DC for a team that finished poorly on defense...

How would this be a great hire again?

 

[4TheU]

This would be tough for Diaz since Banda is the guy he was grooming for the job, but it would be good to have an established guy at DC.

Head coaches must make tough decisions. Part of the job.

 

[AK_Cane]

Just have to wait, this next week and a half will tell us all we need to know about HC Diaz

So is dIAZ going to call the D or put this guy or Panda or Catke in charge????

How did Baylor do on defense last year?

One of the worst in the country. Gave up 6.3 yards per play which is ranked 114th out of 130 teams.

He was the Assistant Head Coach and DB coach at Baylor. Not the Co-DC. That would've been his new role at Temple.

 

[twes.305]

wasn't Baylor's defense trash.

 

[mackjones]

I guess Banda won't be DC then

I hope not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The guy is a glorified sideline/practice CHEER LEADER.
