Say it isn't so English!!!!

Oh shit. Just confirmed with somebody else that this is not a rumor.

Anyone have other inside tracks to also confirm.
 
can you blame the guy? No one is gonna want to stick around after being demoted... I am not to worried about this he wasnt a good coach on defense for us...
 
Here's to racking up hundreds upon hundreds of yards rushing against that DLine of CSEWE for the next few years! :thumb:
 
This is not good. I know his defenses didn't live up to expectations but I'm not sold on our new coordinator either. Plus he was a good recruiter in the State of Colorado except this last year when we didn't have any recruits from CO. Wonder why? Maybe he had an idea he would be looking for a different job, also i know the recruits in CO this year were not as deep as in past years.

Agreed...well stated. Probably has been wanting out for a while.

DC is (for the most part) running Wyoming athletics right now, and will do as he pleases (either himself, or his whipping boy will handles things).

For the first two years DC was head coach, our offense was horrible. What did he do to correct it? He brought in a decent OC and I don't think anyone has looked back and said, "OH NO, THIS IS BAD". Now, it is our defense that sucks and guess what? DC is doing something about it.....unlike a certain previous head coach that was too loyal. Will it work out? Nobody knows, but at least we aren't sitting on our hands.

Good luck to Marty.

I'll be sure to thank DC for hiring Coach Shyatt!

I am pretty sure it is the head coaches job to handle his staff, so I don't really have a problem with him demoting English.

I wish English the best (although I hope we continue our success against CSU).

Good luck to Marty, he seemed like a stand up guy, well respected by the players and fans.

Any word on who we will be adding to the staff? Promoting a grad assistant or bringing in someone with more experience?

So, Marcus, you think that was Burman's doing? Funny. There was a committee that interviewed, recommended, and basically delivered Shyatt to Buchanan & the BOR's. Burman, in all actuality have very little to do with it...er, much less than you would think. Which was quite honestly very smart of Burman.

That being said, that wasn't my point. Pin down Kevin or Tim and ask them about how things function between DC & Burman sometime. ;)

I never said Burman was solely responsible for the hiring of Shyatt (for that matter he isn't solely responsible for any of our athletic hires).

I was just saying that DC doesn't run our athletic deparment, and demoting/firing football staff is a component of DC's job. I guess will see if Tormey is an upgrade, but the decision to move on at d-coordinator is understandable from my perspective.

Does he really have that intimate of knowledge of "the system" when we're getting a completely new defensive coordinator? As for knowing the offense, I doubt he's memorized everything that's going on there in a way much different from what tape will provide anyway.
 
English had horrible numbers as our defensive coordinator and whether it was because he is a poor DC or was too weak to deal with Christensen, Mr. zero personality, he failed. Glad he is gone.
 
I didn't realize this, but English will be co-DC at CSU: http://www.coloradoan.com/article/20120216/UPDATES02/120216024
