Anybody that coaches for Jeff Monken is going to know ball.

And our coaches spoke with Todd Monken when looking at Carson Beck, so this may be a
connection.

Guy is a badass. Have met him many times and he recruits my area a lot. Have seen several kids go play there from my area.

Does a ton of work for veterans and has a foundation for fallen war heroes. Think he earned a star during his own deployment.

Love the cultural fit if nothing else.

I can't wait for his pre game speech.

 

[Canes Empire]

Cinematic recap have a new pregame hype man

 

[caneworld]

Crazy eyes = good

Thank goodness he isn't a Broyles Award winner..

 

[TomAce]

I dont understand this one, was Jeremy Shockey or Jimmy Graham or Chris Herndon not available?

Winslow missed his interview slot

 

[caneworld]

Crazy eyes = good

With those eyes, he will fit in well with our Mountain Man DC

 

[Dr. House]

Winslow missed his interview slot

Well, for once he missed a slot

 

[TheToadSage]

Jack Reacher, nice

 

[AUcane]

This move tells me we’re finally going to the flex bone . All the rb’s returning makes sense now.

someone tell me why I should be angry or happy?

 

[stormsurge]

first time a TE drops a pass

 

[MedleyCane]

He does look like Dan Morgan.
Has that same stare, too.

 

[Canes Legacy]

So just because these three were great players means they are going to be good coaches right? ****** amateur hour here

 

[aelmiami]

perfect cultural fit and he’ll actually make his room work and not be soft on blocking duties. But I’m scared we are making the room too one dimensional. I can’t imagine he has any experience with passing concepts.

Maybe I’m wrong. But doesn’t the WR coach help with receiver drills? I could way out of turn here but anytime when I played the TEs did blocking drills with the OL and receiving with the WRs.

As far as the concepts, it doesn’t seem like our passing concepts are that deep with the TE position. Seems to be flat routes and seam routes. Just that Baumann was *** at even the basics for us.

Between Mario, this guy and Heatherman, players going to legit be scared to **** up.

 

[aelmiami]

Army runs the triple option offense, UM doesn’t. Hopefully this works out it’s not like Woodiel was that good to be honest. I think this hire might be an upgrade.

I wonder what concepts he brings in the rushing attack. Not that I think he’s going to incorporate the option, but outside runs have been either A, nonexistent or B, just bad. The option obviously is heavy on outside runs in addition to the FB dive.

If anything, it shows Mario is willing to get outside opinions on his baby(the OL). That within and of itself is a big deal imo.

 

[Odysseus]

He gon have them boys disciplined as ****

Very interesting hire... he's basically been an Army lifer! Found this on his resume which makes the move slightly odd from a timing standpoint "In the winter of 2025, Viti was promoted to Associate Head Coach / Offensive Line." So he basically just got promoted there and now leaves 2.5 months later. Who knows what his motive is, I'm sure he got a significant pay bump and maybe he aspires to be a future OC or HC. Culturally he fits Mario but does he fit recruiting athletes down here and nationally? Time will tell. Either way - love that he's a grinder and loyal. Welcome Coach!

south florida doesnt produce much te's so that wouldnt be a problem. But hes from army ...recruiting is all they do...hes gonna be falling over himself on the type of talent available to us on the ol or te.

He should be our point man from the dmv to ny/nj
