Ambrose helping Buffs get defensive

[Tatonka]

Good article, first one I've seen with decent info on Ambrose. Brown was great, but I think Ambrose will be too! Great hire, and I love the NOL connection for recruiting!

When Colorado's defensive backs get advice from their new secondary coach, imagine how their ears perk up when he says, "When I covered Jerry Rice . . ." or "This reminds me of when I batted down one of Brett Favre's passes."

Ash was a very good hire. So glad he ended up with the DBs instead of the WRs.

Getting Prince was great for us, too.

If we win this year and this staff gets off the hot seat, I think we've got some great recruiters and we'll bring in a surprisingly good class.

I know I'm being a downer here, but I believe that the secondary is going to miss coach Brown. Losing a coach with that much experience is going to show up on the field.

Didn't you two already have this argument? :smile2:

Yeah. This is deja vu.

Sorry. I'm still bitter over the whole deal. Brown should've been the DC this year. :lol:

I'm with Valdez on the first point, and have no idea on the second point. I was told by someone in the know that the whole story about Brown running the defense after the first couple games was intraweb nonsense....

He was definitely a good DB coach and Ashley may also be good, but he was Brown's understudy. He won't be better this quick, nor as good imo.

Yeah, losing Brown sucks

You all know it is way too common for us to lose good coaches (for all the reasons we all know). When we have thrived we have been good at replacing them. Let's hope Ambrose is a good replacement. By all accounts it sounds as though he is. While Brown was obviously good, this sort of thing just happens to us too often for me to get that worried.
