We'll see how our two coordinators (O and D) will do on Sept 5th against a good UCLA team. They'll probably learn a lot in their jump into pressure moments of coordinating.
It is a little concerning. Granted none of the media was pressing them on x's and o's for some reason. These guys are also new to media in their roles. It's clear Tosh has a framework (the pillars..), that for now I'm confident arent simply platitudes and will translate into team culture, game preparedness, and effort on the field.. which we've been lacking for quite some time. So it's refreshing in a way to see that being instilled first.
Also, faith in Tosh's choices for now. It's a new era, and a big departure from what clearly hasnt worked for the last 15 years.. Cant wait to see it in action.
I've thought for a long time that you've got to be a megalomaniac to want to be a FBS head coach (Nick Saban, Dabo Sweeney being easy reference points). Tosh is sort of fitting that billing. He's like "I believe so much in myself that I'll hire a right-hand man and left-hand man with absolutely no experience. Then, I'll instruct them to lean on my strategic pillars in media availability as I construct the identity, process and schemes across the board, in a clandestine manner."
I am optimistic about how well these new coaches will do. And I am going to the Spring Game to see how all their words and work play out on the field.
Should be fun!

I’m a little worried that both this DC and the OC profile says that these two first time coordinators are emphasizing blah blah blah over SCHEME….

Exactly. Effort and execution matter, but you need to know where you’re going.
