Where does DVD stand?

cormani and DVD were close. mario promised the McClains that dvd would be on field to their face. it didnt happen obviously or happen yet at least. it wasnt a wink wink either. cribby literally said he flat out said it to their faces. mario is allowed to change his mind and dvd is allowed to bounce.
Absolutely. 100% agree. DVD interviewed for Utah State a few years ago, Georgia, FIU, and Miami last year. USF, UNC, and FSU this year... and didn't get any of them.

He didn't get the jobs or chose to stay. Weird timing now.

Ive always liked Brandon. Loved that he’s been out there cutting his teeth independent of UM nepotism. Wouldn’t mind seeing him back here one day.

Anyone know how FAU DBs have been since he’s been there? Any insight on his recruiting bandwidth?
Believe he just got there. Was at FSU if I remember correctly.
 
That's the exact definition of being passed over, of course it probably wasn't a battle 1 vs 1 straight up (JT or DVD) more like forced circumstances as you said in your reconstruction of the facts (which is, IMHO, likely correct).
Not necessarily. That’s like someone in the accounting department saying they got passed over because an attorney was promoted to head of legal

Nope, you have 10 spots for on-field coaches. They both were "fighting" for 1 spot and the fact that the new DC is also a DB coach by trade put DVD in a disadvantaged position.
 
great recruiter does not necessarily equal good on the field coach
I totally understand that but then again, I also believe that @Cribby has good information, so why would Mario promise him an on field role and then not to the point that now he’s not staying as an analyst without another job (at this point) in clear view with another school?

i think he had an offer from UT St. and FIU and he opted to stay wiht us. i think the plan for coming on field was clear. maybe its addae being unable to land another gig to open a role (i believe i saw some reports or thouught i did that addae was interviewing for other jobs). maybe he didnt get the role and w guidry here, mario may be leaving that to him to decide since he is a DBC by trade
 
No, Kevin Beard is a WR coach. WRs are offensive players.
And no DB coach slot opened up which is what DVD coaches. We’re not going to have 3 DB coaches or make the mistake we did last year and have the DC coach a position he’s never really coached before.

If a DB coaching slot opened up and Mario promoted Terry Jefferson to it instead of DVD THEN he would’ve been “passed over” but that role never materialized. He can be upset about that but he wasn’t passed over.


Or we’re both wrong and he just got cold feet 🤷🏻‍♂️

it's a semantic problem, brother. We are saying the same thing basically.

I'm probably wrong given that English is not my mother tongue, I'll give you that lol

Speculation as usual. I don’t believe there was any firm confirmation that DVD was promised anything and I believe it would be totally out of character for Mario to make a promise like that to one coach and one recruit.
