I think Co-DCs of the two is not out of the realm of likelihood

I'm not a huge fan of this arrangement.

Curious as to your thoughts on that.

Does a co-coordinator thing ever really work out?

The Scranton Dunder Mifflin Paper Company Branch was the only one to make it through the economic issues the company faced while having co-branch managers.

I have to believe that was key to their success.

I dunno. Freeman likes Washington, obviously. They essentially are Run (official) and Pass (unofficial) Game Coordinators with Golden over top currently. So I guess you could leave Washington with his current title which is “elevated” but not quite Co-DC

What would be sick is if we could buy headphones, like in NASCAR, and listen to the coaches radio channel during the game.

Ryan Day was a co-OC with Kevin Wilson for three years. Dan Lanning also co-DC'd the Georgia defense in his three years under Kirby.

Not sure how seriously to take analysis from a Notre Dame football blog that spells Brian Kelly’s name wrong. (See the blurb on Cincy’s DC)

Bryant Haines is from Ohio and played at Ball State. I wonder how enticing Notre Dame would be to him if they were to come knocking.

I'd venture to guess we'll be starting spring ball first week of March.

Barely a month to find a replacement. Time to get the flight tracker warmed up

 

[Jimmy3Putt]

Spring ball in a month???
The extended playoff is awesome.

Why, Golden, why did you have to leave? You were such a great representative of the university. You should have retired after winning 3 championships. Now your with the Bungles. Why, oh, why. Love thee

He probably wants to come back as HC

Bittersweet.

Going to miss him.

His family stayed in Cinci when he came to ND and he has the opportunity to go back “home” + coach in the NFL it’s extremely hard to pass up. We got screwed by Cinci making terrible personnel decisions on defense.

Very very big chance that in less than 12 months Taylor is fired and Golden is unemployed

Don’t think he will be unemployed, as even if he’s not retained, he will land another job by this time next year.

I don’t wish for his downfall

Don't see that at all. Taylor took the Bengals to the Super Bowl and the Brown family are super loyal. Taylor will have a pretty long leash.

It's been the best 1000 days of being a fan in my life. (Born 1993).

Thank you, Coach.

I graduated high school in 93... you young whipper snapper.

Thats awesome haha. One of my favorite things to say to the team I manage at my office is "Now speak slowly. I was born in the 1900's."

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Best 1,000 days of his career, but he left.

They're jobs. Nothing more.

 

[Fbolt]

By 1993, I had already graduated HS, lived overseas, fought in a war, was married, and starting to dislike my life trajectory. 🤣

 

[irishff1014]

I wish we could have won a natty with him here.
