He is a lifer D coach and the first D coach as head coach since King Pete. All the rest of the awful gang of three since have been O minded, both as players and as coaches since before forever, and thus have never known the first thing about HITTING or even the importance of HITTING both in practice and in games. I'll just bet there has at least been more hitting, such an essential thing, on HJ field this very week than at any time in the last decade. Thus I expect an immediate upgrade in the way we play D, even so soon as this coming Saturday. It will also better prepare our O guys to the reality of HITTING, and thus of the realities of true football. In fierce hitting lies pride as a football player. Hitting IS football. Otherwise you are NOT playing football at all, only some wussy simulacrum of football. All make believe. This especially was the greatest fault of Clay. Make believe football. No killer instinct. No instinct for the jugular but rather for the capillaries. Ding dong the witch is dead. FIGHT THE HELL ON.
