New DC and DL coaches at UM
I can’t think of anyone who might be candidates for those spots. Gregorak???

Re: New DC and DL coaches at UM
Those retirements have been known for at least a few weeks now. Unfortunately it takes our sports media forever to get out any valuable information. Sounds like Coach Bradford will be the new DC. Cooper is moving to linebackers. They will be hiring a DL and safeties coach

I'm really hoping the griz, don't change anything, on the offensive side of the ball. Don't mess with perfection.

Re: New DC and DL coaches at UM
Wouldn't be surprised to see Roger Cooper move from Safeties to LB or DL coach. Also wouldn't be surprised to see their assoc. head coach (Ronnie Bradford) move to DC. I've also heard some talk about Tim Hauck coming in, but that happens pretty much every time there's an open defensive coaching position at UM.

Ha....I pretty much nailed it. Also, wasn't there an analyst with DB background? Possibly take Cooper's spot?HookedOnGriz wrote: ↑Tue Jan 24, 2023 2:05 pmSee abovewbtfg wrote: ↑Tue Jan 24, 2023 10:38 amWouldn't be surprised to see Roger Cooper move from Safeties to LB or DL coach.

Re: New DC and DL coaches at UM
When I heard something about bare sacks and the UM football team, my thoughts went straight to another inappropriate conduct-type deal involving players. Had no idea it was about Baer and Sacks retiring.

Yes Kim Mccloud from Hawaii was a corners coach. His previous stops were Syracuse, Idaho, Nevada, and Baylor. Was a DC at a couple spots too. I could see him sliding into that safeties spot.wbtfg wrote: ↑Tue Jan 24, 2023 2:08 pmHa....I pretty much nailed it. Also, wasn't there an analyst with DB background?

Re: New DC and DL coaches at UM
It’ll be tough to replace those names. Sacks had to be the most perfect name ever for a DL coach, and anytime you can get a Baer to coach grissly bears it’s a good deal. Where our Katz?
I agree — baer sacks does sound a little sketchy. Sort of nostalgic to see the defensive band breaking up as they’ve been pretty kind to our running game.

Shhh — Coop (and Rovig) are deep under-cover Bobcats. When we get a few more we’ll be set.

Just think, as safeties coach he may have had a hand in inflating Robby’s tackle count and erasing Kane from the record books.ilovethecats wrote: ↑Thu Jan 26, 2023 12:19 pmStill drives me nuts Coop is over there.wbtfg wrote: ↑Tue Jan 24, 2023 2:08 pmHa....I pretty much nailed it.
