Roof Out as DC

[steebu]

Not suggesting a fire sale, but whoever the new DC is should have some leeway in getting the assistants he wants.

PJ has said before that he prefers to run an odd front which is why I liked the Groh hire ... until it blew up.

Roof was not fired. He took a promotion. He's now an assistant head coach as well as co-DC. Considering the way our fans treated him, I don't blme him for bolting. This is a loss for us.

CTR's departure leaves me with some sadness but that is not to say that there doesn't need to be improvements to the defense. I know this is part of the deal in coaching - a lot of moves and transitions that can be tough on families (especially when a coach's son plays on the team), and, sometimes, a lot of inconsiderate grief from some fans. I wish Coach Roof the best, I thank him for his time here and I hope this move works out well for both schools.

How would you guys/girls feel about a guy like Brian Jean-Mary?

Lol no thanks

Can't wait to see you Roof haters when the same talent level doesn't play better and may play worse. With that said, I always want GT to play well and win, but I believe Ted was great for GT. Everyone can have their own opinion. That is one from an alum.

Well I can’t wait till all the Roof lovers, who think he’s the absolute best for GT and no one could do better see our D be better. This is my opinion, coming from an ex head football coaches son who coached D and won a state championship. (High school) I do wish Roof the best though, from what I’ve heard he was a good guy, and I have no hard feelings at all.

I don’t see how it’s a loss, idk how our D could have gotten any worse.

Unless the talent starts to perk up at DT or LB, you will see how it can get worse. Not hoping for that, but trust me, it can.

Luckily I don’t think he’s even on the list. I think the decision has been made.

Disagree, our D system we were running was not beneficial to our guys in the first place. So many more things we could have done to help them out imo.

Who do you think? Do you know if Chad Glasgow was a thought?

I remember you telling me that but was not my place to say.

Glasgow doesn’t really have any ties to PJ or the south. He is not an option. Pj likes people with ties or he knows a lot about.

Can't wait for us to do worse? Hmmm

This pressure style 3-4 is intriguing tho.

DE: Branch
DT: Adams
DE: Glanton
Jack: St. Amour/Dingle
ILB: Brant
ILB: Vic
SLB BJS

Someone check on @33jacket. I know this is a sad day for him

That criteria has really worked out well with regard to hiring choices on his staff.....

What a stubborn guy.

This although I think Owens would thrive at DE and Glanton/Adams would split at NG.

Did @Jmonty71 have a heart attack?

I agree but I really do like this move. Let’s see what other moves we make.

Glanton is light for that but it wouldn’t be an issue if we are not 2-gaping. The Owens was moving, i might consider him as Jack LB at 270lbs
