I thought we were told he would have autonomy to run his defense the way he wanted to run, not exactly pick his defensive assistants.
Semantics, perhaps. But there's a difference there. And ftr, I hope he brings his Navy DL coach and a LB coach of his liking.

Is it ever known for a HC to go to his AD and say, "Hey, we need this dude. So we need $300,000 more to the package"?

Just proud of myself for guessing something right for once. Nothing personal. My experience helping hire people paid off!

That's the only thing that worries me at this point as far as not hearing something official. I saw or read an interview and I could tell that bringing in some of his own people was important to him. There are three guys that he brought with him to Navy and one of whose positions is redundant with Brock's who we need to coach special teams. Phelps I could do with or without. His LB coach could replace Marve. But that could be the hold up potentially.

You still feeling good about this? Rosie saying it's a wait and see.
Said Newberry spent Friday in Key West and weekend in Vegas. He wants to bring some of his guys (I'm guessing LBs coach and DEs coach ... they been with him a while). Rosie says Newberry went back to Annapolis to ponder on the offer.

Do you know who he is really wanting to bring with him?
His staff looks a little like a mix of guys at Navy before and his guys, with one of his guys (Norwood) already gone to UCLA.

He brought PJ Volker & Kevin Downing with him to Navy from Kennesaw. We have room for 1 but if Phelps is coming like I heard then that's it. If Phelps wasn't coming then he could bring both.

That's what concerns me just a little. Both have been with him a while. I'm sure you already know this ... Volker is LBs coach & Downing is DEs. Looks kinda like Downing would be on outside looking in maybe.

Maybe but Downing has coached just about everything on defense & even some offense.

I haven't really kept up. How many defensive coaches from Washington State are we hiring?

Something to consider with these defensive hires:
The quicker we hire defensive guys, the quicker Gibson & Peterson have to come off the road.

He went back to Annapolis to sit on his ass & not have to recruit so that Peterson & Gibson can lock up the class
You don't go to Key West & then Starkville for the weekend & then not take the job

I don't think any of them other than Brock have been officially hired. I guess if we work out something with the Navy DC he will bring his guys and if not it will be Leach's guys and someone like Rocky Long.
