Wayne Gretzky for one. There's legion.
In fact pundit wisdom, at least for hockey, is the best players don't make good coaches. They have trouble understanding the capabilities of non-star players.
Ernie Sims.
Not Billy.
Sims Promoted To Linebackers Coach - USF Athletics
Bulls analyst promoted to position coach; Scott announces staff changes
TAMPA, JAN. 15, 2021 – USF head coach Jeff Scott today announced the promotion of defensive quality control analyst Ernie Sims to linebackers coach and the departure of two members of the coaching staff.
Safeties coach Wes Neighbors and running backs coach Pat White have departed the program for other opportunities. Defensive coordinator Glenn Spencer will move from his positional coaching duties with the linebackers to coaching safeties.
Skip's in the perfect spot. A level where he can excel, consistently put out a team that competes for the conference and probably become a beloved fixture in the community and school. While making a lot of money and being completely secure.
It's a simple bait and switch. They think they're getting this:
Not realizing it's literal and they go through the actual transfer portal. CJS then twirls his mustache and mutters "This way to the egress!"
I agree, go for need, don't worry as much about balance. Besides, it looks like CJS has his ways of convincing players to explore the portal, so that could easily include our DE/DTs.
I remember well before the Merrill Lynch bull debacle, in our quarterly IT meeting, hearing the VP Technology/CTO praise him for being a genius and working to get our graphics and logoing consistent across all areas of USF.
In the end he was maybe CCS level bad.
My cynical self says in our sick society, in particular in the sick society of big money athletics, that a sexual assault is less of an issue for a team/coach than a player who quits on his coach/team.
