He had like 7 drops this year and plays best in the slot. Pass

 

[zelezo vlk]

He was earning over 500K at Wisconsin

But his buyout was only either 5 or 50K per the II podcast

Luke Fickell either loves his assistants moving on to better gigs, or he's setting up his future staff if he gets the head coach gig at ND.

If Golden leaves ND, is Freeman next gonna ask Fickell for Mike Tressel as DC?

I assume since he is official he can coach the current WR for bowl prep?

Good. That's one demotion for Parker. One to go!

Good luck Coach Brown! Hope he does great things here.

I would definitely assume you would want him coaching your position ASAP. Benefits him and the group both to get these practices in together before next year. He can assess his group that he currently has and they can acclimate to his coaching before spring ball.

I like this hire.

 

[IAIrish]

I'm on board. Developed speed merchants at cincy into nfl picks. Denbrock loves him.

Get him better raw material to work with at nd and watch him go full mickens.

I believe the phrase was that they were very "high" on him.

Yeah I think they were very high on Chansi as well. Or it was Chansi that was very high. I can't remember

 

[IrishSpartan]

Can he croot?

 

[IrishBoognish]

Can he croot?

Early returns are positive

 

[irishff1014]

I am still not sure about this hire.

But I will still cheer for him to do well and hope he brings so much need improvements to the teams WR’s.

My thought process toward this guy is to see what Colzie does under him. To me Deon might have the most potential in the WR group thats not a freshman or transfer. I want to see him out it togther.

 

[arrowryan]

Does anyone know when he officially starts in south bend?

He’ll be coaching in the bowl game, so he has probably already started

Today?

The fact that Colzie seems to be sticking around is a really good sign. I'm sure he's not having the career he had hoped for, and is now on his third WR coach. Would be easy for him to bail. But he hasn't. (I suppose he could yet if he's low on the depth chart after spring ball).

Hope he stays healthy and a new coach helps it click for him. He has enormous potential. And there's a lot to be said for the guys who work through some adversity.

This was done and made official quite quickly. Certainly quicker than we've grown accustomed to when it comes to assistant coaching hires.

Assuming Brown was already vetted recently and the process was that much quicker?

just wait until we find out he has fake degrees and we get O'Leary'd again and the admin kills the program again

Someone had to stick around to show Coach Brown the ropes.

Hope this guy knocks it out of the park.

Collins and Mitchell committed bc we brought Brown on board and it has nothing to do with RL “potentially” committing “today.”

 

[NDdomer2]

If he was vetted before stuckey hire I could see that pushing this through faster than normal

He used to work pretty closely with Freeman and Gino and maybe Mickens? If there were issues, probably they'd be aware.

 

[irishff1014]

Already on the road visiting commits.

His protege from UC Tre Tucker balled out last night

I am going to to try to be fair and give him an opportunity but this want a lot of people were saying. Another limited search because Freeman knew him.
