So, my predilection to catastrophic thinking is acting up again. It made me wonder about this time next year, when the Blackshirts are the #2 defense in the B1G, and Tony White left to be the Head Coach at Pitt; do you think T Knighton become the Defensive Coordinator? Or is E Cooper more likely the next up?
Fair question. I think Cooper would be next up, and that's who I'd pick. Watching his press conference Tuesday I though, "This guy isn't going to be a position coach much longer." A DC gig might be the only way NU holds on to him for multiple years.
I agree with the idea that special teams really only constitute 1/6 of the game unfortunately when we have been so limited offensively and defensively(until last year) a wayward punt late in the game cost us a game. Also with nil I wonder "do we need to spend a scholarship on kickers?" or do ships even matter?
