A lot of folks were excited about our hoops season too. People always get excited about the unknown, however, intelligent people are able see through the BS.
"I mean Bienemy has Super Bowl Rings...developed Mahomes..."
If it was a binary choice between EB and DF, Id certainly hire EB. That being said, there are a TON of concerns about EB. EB interviewed with either 16 or 18 NFL franchises to be their HC and never got a whiff. He was also poor to bad last year in DC. It's a pretty difficult argument to make that winding up as the OC at UCLA under a complete novice HC that EB was in demand. If EB was so integral in developing Mahomes, why wasnt he hired somewhere desirable? Almost every OC who had as much success as EB got a HC position somewhere. The list is akin to a CVS receipt.
"Our QB Coach Ted White is fresh off of coaching CJ Stroud to one of the best rookie QB seasons in NFL history..."
I keep seeing this statement but its completely false. Unless White was coaching Stroud from the unemployment line I dont see how he coached Stroud. White was not retained by Ryan last year. If you want to credit him for his development of Davis Mills, I get that...but I dont think thats the selling point you think he is. Stop parroting obviously false information.
"We can nitpick about the rest of the staff... but Erik Frazier, Juan Castillo and Marcus Thomas are bringing a lot of experience and energy to that offensive side of the ball as well.."
Why do you think they are brining "energy"? What evidence is there of that? Im pretty sure none of these guys had jobs and none had college or NFL position jobs.
"I mean the UCLA fans I know are really excited about the staff Coach Foster has put together,"
Ive yet to meet anyone "excited" about DF. If they were Id question their intellect. Why in the world would DF excite anyone? He was a RB coach....a position that rarely if ever has led to a HC position. He was a desperation hire. Sorry.
