    I’m sure DJ was a big reason for pulling Wilson. But I just think it’s odd that anyone would minimize a coach’s impact just because they have a dynamic QB that helps attract talent.

    I would think a Day 2 guy. Nothing wrong with that. Lots of talent but he just came across as disinterested at times this season.

    But I didn’t minimize his coaching. I just asked if it was NiL or Lagway because until Lagway proved himself it wasn’t Nil or Gonzalez.

    I even mentioned that it was more about personality versus coaching. Ffrench wasn’t even interested nor smith. Not taking anything away from BG. He’s coached great ones and has pulled great ones. Same is being said about Rob Sale and his ability to connect.

    Im sure Napier, DJ and the bag as well as being closer to home factor in for most situations.

    In the end, yes. I am grateful and I have no issues keeping BG. That may all depend on the new off coord, if there is one.

    Yep - as much as I’d like to see Billy hire an OC, we’re a whole lot better off changing nothing than bringing in someone who isn’t the right guy

    Agreed, but in this stint with us, most production has come from transfers, not the players he developed from high school. There needs to be a quick turnaround on that because there is enough high school talent now.

    What is the pint of asking a hypothetical that is impossible to answer? All coaches have NIL now, what does that even matter?

    lol he is literally one of the best in the league, just look at his resume. He’s been here for two years and has brought in VB3, Wilson, badger, Duke….made pets all a first rounder to a team that values WR a lot which nobody saw coming, I we are really grasping at straws if we are looking for holes in our WR coaching right now. One of the best rooms on our team, hands down.

    he is also credited with other positions such as Kair elam and Jon Bostic
