CU Assistant Coach Hiring Thread

Buffnik said:
Doug Belk is a guy to take a look at. He was damn good at Houston and took a position coach job at USC after Holgo was fired. It wouldn't be unusual if he left that job if offered a DC position.

I think you have to remember that Prime isn’t likely to hand over the defense to someone outside his circle of trust
 
Prime will promote Dennis Thurman to DC. Game day coaching and player development (especially the secondary) will improve. The question will be can he match or exceed Kelly when it comes to recruiting?

Thurman was the DC for the Jets and the Bills, when Rex Ryan was the head coach. Before becoming the DC for the Jets, he was the Jets DB coach for 4 years. He was instrumental in the early success for D. Revis and Stephen Gilmore. Hunter's DB potential will get maximized and hopefully Cormani turns out to be the stud we all hope he will be.

Who did Kelly recruit to CU?

Asking for a friend.

LOL at anyone believing Cormani is here because of any person not named Deion Sanders

Agreed, Cormani is here because of Prime. What's weird is 247 gave credit to Prime for Seaton, but not Cormani?
Anyways, my point is that Kelly's reputation is a great recruiter. It would be awesome for the Buffs if Kelly's reputation is overblown and him leaving doesn't negatively impact recruiting.

Are we sure Shurmur is the OC? I know Prime said he likely would be, but I haven't seen that confirmed.

I would have assumed you are following these boards closely enough to know he is the fallback plan if we can't hire a knockout punch.

Zimmer and Kenny Norton Jr. are both available now. Today. There isn’t a reason to wait till next week to announce them.

What happens in a week from now? The NFL regular season ends. Half the teams won’t make the playoffs and their coaches are free to move.

I’m starting to lean towards a sitting NFL coach on a losing team will ne the next CU DC.

Your thinking ignores how Prime manages the news cycles. This week gets less for sure.

Thank God!

Guy is and has always been a terrible DC.

I can’t speak to the defensive scheme or plan, but I found his rage-coach-screaming from the sidelines not to be a good sign, at all.

I simply don’t respect scream-coaching—that’s gone the way of Bobby Knight. People tend to get angry when something is their fault/problem but they refuse to see it that way. If you can’t communicate without rage that’s not everyone else’s problem, it’s yours.
