Rumph to UM

Advertisement
I don't know what to think of this, but I imagine Richt has more information than all of us. That would include knowledge of how he coaches the position, how he interacts with young men, etc.

I know that AH recruits and when doing so they go after the cream of the crop like STA, etc. So I'm not sure one can say simply, "look at all the corners they're putting out." That should be a given, they're recruiting these players.

I hope it works out for all of the new coaches. I hope it does in particular for him since he's a former player here. Having said all of that, I'd prefer they learn the college coaching game elsewhere first, but some high school coaches transition well. We shall see what happens I suppose, but I'm not going to jump up or down or put the hire down. I'm not in a position to do so.
 
Has to be support staff. Would be a horrible DB hire. Sony continues to pay dividends to Rumph.

Help me understand... What makes him a horrible DB hire?
Because he has no "experience" coaching corners in d-1 mr.quarterman

So was Nick Saban a horrible hire for his first coaching position?

As a graduate assistant at Kent St.? Nope....I think that was a very appropriate launching pad for Saban. Do you not understand the difference here?

No i said when he took his first coaching job..not a GA position...
 
Everyone who has been around So FL HS football knows Rumph. It's not like Richt and Diaz can't do a background check. They like him. And a mixture of seasoned position coaches with up and comers is very healthy for the overall staff. Hopefully Richt is good at assessing coaching talent. We'll have to see how he turns out.

Saban was a defensive GA/Assistant for 9 YEARS IN COLLEGE before he EVER landed his FIRST position coaching job. See the difference yet?

1972–1974 Kent State (GA)

1975–1976 Kent State (D. Asst.)

1977 Syracuse (D. Asst.)

1978–1979 West Virginia (D. Asst.)

1980–1981 Ohio State (DB)

1982 Navy (D. Asst.)

1983–1987 Michigan State (DB/DC)

1988–1989 Houston Oilers (DB)

1995–1999 Michigan State

2000–2004LSU

2005–2006 Miami Dolphins

2007–present Alabama

If Rumph wants to grind it out in the lower levels for 9 years and then come back I'll be on board in a heart beat.

So every position coach needs to have started as a GA?

At the Div 1 level? I'd say it's a no brainer genius. Do you ******* clowns even know what goes into coaching at the college level? It's a ******* grind to the bone. 100 hour work weeks and ****. I'd prefer my position coaches to understand and flourish in that role before coaching at UM.

Has he ever had to sit in a living room and convince a kid to come to a **** school? Has he ever had to communicate and deliver a game plan to kids at this level? Has he ever had to sit in a meeting room and discuss the merits of a particular recruit and why he should or shouldn't be offered? Has he ever failed, succeeded or honed in his instruction skills that are required for this level. This isn't ******* high school anymore boys. I'd prefer my position coaches have already gone through those growing pains before they reach our level. It's common ******* sense.

It's not just "Hey bro....you need a little more bend in your knees in your back pedal". The nuances of coaching at this level are enormous.

Question to help me fully understand - Does playing D1 College ball... for a few years... then a stint in the NFL for a couple of years... attending practices, meetings, watching film at both levels then a few years as a HS Coach account for any on the job experience? or do you have to start off as a GA?

So no credit given for being in the NFL? He is coaching one position - the one he played and check out the secondary pipeline he has developed at Heritage.

Pops Q beat me to it.

Coaches don't go through that anymore. T-Rob is only 34 and was a ga for only 2 or 3 years before he became a db coach. Rumph has actually been a hc. Even though it was at the high school level it is more experience than t-rob when he started.
