Yes, I am a DC fan. He is actually a personable guy when you talk to him. He will stand off during functions and let fans talk to his assistant coaches. But, once he gets going he's a good guy to talk too. Also, when my dad died we got those sideline passes for the UNLV game last year from DC. After the game and his postgame interview he was looking around the field. I got by everyone and he recognized me and my wife, came over shook our hands and told us that he was looking for us. He was hoping we made it. Because it's fan like us that will help turn this program around when we show up. And then we talked an more of a personal level for a while. He really is a good guy.
While on the sideline I watched his interaction with his players and he really isn't a hard ass. If there was a mistake he took a kid aside a explained what was going on and what needed to be done the next time. And he allows his assistants to do there jobs, he does not over step any of them.
I really think we have the potential for one of the better staffs in the country. DC has been successful, Brandon has been no pushover anywhere he's gone and has been very successful, Tormey has stepped into a beehive. He is a good and knowledgable coach, but he stepped into a Def that was horrible last year and that lost most all of it's firepower. He has a really young and inexperienced Def he is working with. But, people will automatically go back to, "Why did we even hire this guy!" "He needs to be fired!", after not even two games into the season. Anyone with common sense knew we were going to struggle on Def this year. Not only because we were young and inexperienced, but because we transitioned to a different style of Def. Overall: Give the guy a break! NOT ONE OF YOU COULD DO ANY BETTER! Besides, he blitzes, which is the biggest complaint we had last year.
I could go on and on, but each coach is very well fit into this staff. If we allow it to mold and marinate, it will be successful.
