He was part of Jay Gruden's staff when Rivera took over in Washington so likely not a Rivera hire, though Ron may have some familiarity. Not a lot of OC experience, especially at the college level, but LOTS of NFL WR coaching experience. In terms of success, it's hit-and-miss because that's the nature of the NFL. But he was regularly employed, which means he's a trusted entity.

The goal as it seems to me: Recruit a lot of experienced talent through the portal who can handle NFL coaching and give it to them. The emphasis will be on the players more than the playbook. It's a recipe for a fast turnaround and extremely busy portal if it all works out.

And lets reignite the Cal-NFL pipeline. Looking a little sparse when NFL players say their college during the intros.
