Coaching Mario talking about the DC hiring process...

[QuattroCane]

Mario talks a big game… let’s see if he can back it up.

Seeing that you've been a member for around four years now, based on recent examples, I appreciate your infrequent posting

And Cyrus Moss.

Fixed, that may be the biggest commit.

That was an impressive answer to a question that probably implied "why did it take so long to hire a DC". Those of us who either publicly complained or privately lamented (present company included) need to shut up and let this man do his job.

Yes, it has taken longer than most us wanted, but when you layer in that it is the height of recruiting season and consider the domino impact of collegiate and NFL vacancies this time of year, it is understandable.

Thanks for sharing.

His hires at Oregon were trash. Let's see how the process works this time

Trash is a relative term, he won two pac-12 titles and appeared in three champ games.

Home runs? Not close. Trash? No.

I he hired Arroyo here you're not about to call that trash?

Wasn't Arroyo hired by Taggert and just retained by Cristobal?

Nope. Is he severely underwhelming, doesn’t remotely move the needle - below mediocre type hire? Yeah for sure.

Manny is trash. Enos is trash. But none of them led an offense to a PAC-12 champ title and a rose bowl win.

I’m not saying he’s good because he’s not - but my definition of trash is someone completely incapable of coaching at this level. At least Arroyo and Moorhead got HC jobs, if anything.

Sounds more like a semantic argument over the word trash to me.

Replace trash with severely underwhelming and i'm totally cool with that.

Does it really matter, fact of it is Arroyo was in charge of his offense.

Yes--I'd say it's a pretty different set of circumstances. Nuance and context matter

Good find OP. I liked what he said. Because I have Cane-PTSD, I will wait to see what he does.

Now a semantic argument over the word hire, lol

Very telling interview as to what Mario is looking for in a DC:

Yea i love this! Not just a guy that Twitter likes but an actual Coach that has a track record in all phases when it comes to hiring a coach! Love this guy Mario

 

[Canez1]

Does it feel odd to anyone else to say or hear PAC 12 and defense in the same breath?

I'm not trying to be an educator. I'm ok with you continuing to be dense.

2 PAC 12 titles in 3 years..

Edit: spelling

I'm very interested in PAC 12 ****ies

Ok, Mario made a bad decision to retain Arroyo, better?

 

[Canefam]

I'm kind of thinking Mario pulls from the NFL ranks... I was checking out recent NFL teams that turned over HC's. I saw the Bears DC - Sean Desai has Miami ties back in 2011 albeit under Golden's time. He is a very smart dude...
