Interesting , he was director of football operations, and was promoted to WR coach in 2015. So he has very limited experince as a wr position coach.

little exp as a coach, but he played WR and what not, he is well connected from down here by me as he was born and raised in Plantation fla, and went to UM as well as coached for a bit.....

i dont have a dog in the fight, just providing a lil back ground on him....i have to imagine this is almost more of a recruiting thing then anything else...who knows though

Yeah, im not saying he is a bad hire or or a home run. Seems like as much of a shot as many of the other coaches we hired. We will see how he works out.

Probably more of a Larry Scott's choice thing. Beard worked with him when he took over for Golden.

Oh Golden, nothing like sitting on the beach or working out at my gym and seeing the "Fire Al Golden" planes everywhere....
