Hire him only under the premise Kevin will not accompany him, dude couldn’t tackle anything short of an underage coed.

On the TDS podcast the other night Seth Varnadore spoke very highly of him.  He said he’s heard from a lot of coaches in the industry that he trusts that say Danny is the real deal.

Danny Verpaele enters his third season with the program and his second year as the defensive coordinator

 

+1000…I think….

Wont help us on Friday. 

It just sucks that even though next year is year 3 under Scott, next year is year 1 for a brand new D as I imagine we will bring in a ton of new people on the field and an entire new defensive staff. 

Scott named Fortin the starter if we recall. He hung on way too long to Spencer. He needs to be making better and quicker decisions. 

Scott is a fantastic young coach and I believe he will eventually get us "there", but I am frustrated with the on the job training occurring right now. Unless VPMK and Scott are privy to some information we all don't have, I don't think we have time for a 7 year rebuild. We need to be competitive against UCF THIS FRIDAY, and go to a bowl game next year.

I'm sure he'll have a chat with Dabo in the off-season for a list of suggestions....

The good news is a defensive turnaround tends to be much quicker than an offensive one. With a good DC hire, a defense can improve dramatically in one offseason.

Exactly... and it doesn't take much improvement to go from horrible to slightly-below-average, but the results from slightly-below-average when paired with a surging offense can be successful.  See also 2016.

Spencer was also our secondary coach, think Danny would settle for that job? Or he's only coming for a DC job?

He was Safeties . . . Barlow is CB's, probably our interm DC.

See DV as a position coach, sure Scott already has a short list for DC.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
