I will be interested to see what he does on the defensive side of the ball, which is where most of the problem was this year.Posted On: Dec 12th 2016, 12:33 PM #364389
i see him keeping on trickett at least for this season but him calling the plays. Probably bring in a new DC though. I say look at the linebackers coach from Penn State, or possiblity one of the Assistant Defensive coaches from Bama.Posted On: Dec 12th 2016, 12:38 PM #364391
I was thinking the same thing, keep trickett who had a low salary and shows promise seeing as he improved our offense against all odds and kiff calls the plays anyway. Use extra salary money to make a big hire at DC.

This is the real shot in the arm that this program needed!
Recruiting has been great!
I guess I will get season tickets again because the talent here was enough to take UF Gators to OT and rule the stats that game (technically won it but hey I'm not bitter the SEC refs in the swamp can't see blatant Pass Interference Calls TWICE during OT - one threw our guy down by the shoulder pads in the end zone with no call).
Our team can win in fits and spurts and something tells me with some of the best guidance that football can offer (Alabama is a pretty substantial force in the college football world so this does make FAU more relevant) … we may actually see a team that was guided better in the second halves of games especially.
That's a large part of where I feel we faltered. Adjustments weren't made on our side of the ball whereas the other football team coach reflected on the other team (us) and made some quick proper adjustments when the break came. Of course, injuries made a mess of this season, too
But this is exciting! Lane Kiffin OC from Alabama as our new HC.
Great job Pat Chun.

Haha, its been so long since he has had something positive to say…I dont think he knows how.
Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.
