I'm hearing Donovan is lobbying for him to come back to Washington with his NFL background.

He's and X's and O's kind of guy.

    That would be cool. I just looked up Strausser. OL coach of the Colts, an OL that gave up the fewest sacks in the NFL. The talent is already here. Fuck what anybody says, Strausser is a huge upgrade over Huff coaching wise.

    Edit: 6th in rushing too. Strausser can coach. 2016 was still our best OL. I know PFF has said otherwise, but Coleman had huge holes that year almost every game.

    Alabama was the OL’s only shitty game and that was a loaded front 7. We haven’t faced one close to as good since.
    He could do something with this OL talent, his issue was never coaching, but he was so bad at recruiting. He had to go

    He was a really fucking good OL coach. The lines he coached moved as a unit and straight mowed through teams. I remember Trey Adams being interviewed after Huff was hired and Softy or whoever asked what he thought of Huff and he just said, "I'm sure he'll be fine but Chris Strsusser was the best coach I've ever played for." Obviously his interest in recruiting was a big issue and the NFL is probably a much better place for him.

    I'm hoping Huff can put it together because his recruiting chops are exceptional. So far our lines have looked "confused" under his leadership.

    As a replacement for Huff or as some kind of consultant?

    Not sure about Lil Jimmy but his podcast co-host and the B2DW crew have been dead wrong on all the rumors they've been putting out recently
    -GA coming to UW
    -KB fired
    -Eason, Salvon and Hunter coming back
    -Moore and Lashlee the only guys Jimmy interviewed for OC
    This x1000000 except remove the word "recently"

    I would take him as a replacement. He ain't coming back to Washington.

    The oline better be fucking good this year. No more fucking youth excuse bullshit. They better be ready to rumble and road grade some ass.

    If Jimmy can’t find coaches who can recruit as well as coach then he can fuck off straight to hell.

    Huff recruits like a madman, but seems mediocre as a coach. Strausser was a really good coach, but a fucking disaster as a recruiter.

    We shouldn’t have to settle for one or the other. Get a dude who can do both. It’s not that complicated.

    It's hard.

    It takes a minute.

    There aren’t that many that are really good at both. Should definitely be the goal. The outrage over those that can’t recruit is 100X greater than those that can recruit but can’t coach.
    The results are more tangible in recruiting. It’s easier for a fan to be able to determine which recruits a coach was primarily responsible for and which other schools that coach out recruited.

    With coaching unless you are at the practices and in the meetings you don’t really know whose fault it is the offense is broken or who should get the most credit for the successful defense.

    Example A being Jonathon Smith who everyone hated but it turns out he may have been held back by Petersen.
    Yeah when it comes to position coaches its extremely difficult to judge if they are good at 'coaching'. I just don't think the difference in coaching ability is really that different from one wide receiver coach to another.

    Offensive and defensive coordinators matter a ton, but for everyone else I'm with Sonics that its 75% recruiting.

    If you’re good at both then you don’t stay as a position coach very long. See Sam Pittman

    I’m hearing Bob Cozzetto is available but be careful because you wouldn’t want to see him angry.

    Can we get him cheaper than his volatile brother Dan?
    Huh?
