Pumped we hired someone who just got fired
That depends.... Do you like chaos in your life?
Meh
You can tell who watches college football and who doesn't.
Florida's problem wasn't on the defensive line, it was entire defense and their offense averaged 28 ppg

He's probably their best position coach. Very well respected and a good recruiter. Seemed like a scapegoat for on field stuff that wasn't his fault. Napier is on thin ice there.
But is he committed to running the 3 man front?
Looks like a good hire
Florida ranked 68th over all
Rushing defense ranked 76th over all
Gave up 155 yards rushing per game
Teams converted 3rd down 31% of the time and 4th down 32% of the time.
Get excited.

I dont like that he has a stupid nickname because fans cant handle that. He'll either be coaching jesus or the football antichrist on here.
To be fair, a grown man going by a nick name is some what weird.
Seems like a decent replacement. Good recruiter, unclear what impact he has on development, but that might be par for the course with position coaches.
The real problem is that the guy we lost was holding together the most talented and productive part of the team and the current recruiting class. If that falls apart, it's a major blow and gets Elko off to a terrible start.

Florida also fired Corey Raymond. That's a head scratcher. Did he just forget how to coach DB's. To me it doesn't sound like their 29 year old DC knows what he's doing.
Elko wanted to hire Spencer at Duke before Florida hired him. So give him a chance.

What a moronic post, most coaches get fired at some point. It's the nature of change. E-Rob is gone. Move on.

Gig Em!!!

We'll see. Can he re-recruit our own roster. If Nolen does indeed leave, i fear more elite players will follow suit.
I think we need to try to hire Corey Raymond. He's a great recruiter and was a good coach at LSU for 10 or 11 years.lagoag said:

Elko did everything that he could to keep E-Rob and he decided to leave anyway. You're correct it's time to move on.goosespn said:Ridge14 said:

I'm all for hiring a psychic defensive coach...
Everything except offer him the DC position, apparently.
He may be "the name" for the defensive line, but I don't like this hire. He will be gone next year. Take a look at his history and where he's been. He's either really expensive and schools can only afford him for a year, or he's a bad coach who doesn't have any long tenure anywhere. Most coaching stops are only for a year.
Chaos will be "Kay-see you later" next year.

Solid coach and great recruiter. Florida has one of the best recruiting classes they've had in awhile, thanks in part to Raymond and Spencer. Their lack of patience may wind up torpedoing that.
Spencer had great DLs at Penn St and NFL experience. I think he wil do fine here. Maybe he can even replace a Robinson defection or two with some Florida guys.

He needs to come in an convince Walter Nolen to stay, then we'll see.
Why the frowning face. Geeze
We gave E Rob a great offer. He left
You move on.

Not worried if he can recruit. Elko will put together the correct defensive staff. I trust he knows way more about defense than anyone on here ever will.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Elko worked with E-Rob for 4 years and I'd think he would be the best judge on whether E-Rob was ready to become a DC. Apparently he didn't. I'd have a hard time turning down $1.7 mil but if your dream is to become a head coach someday I guess you need to chase your dreams and take the next step in being a DC. Good luck to E-Rob but I think we're going to be fine.FarmerJohn said:

Amen to that.
He coached Micah Parsons at PSU. He also was fired because him and the other Co-DC didn't mesh well. Napier stuck with the younger coach and let Chaos walk.

Everything? He threw money at him and said he'd remain the DL coach. You can't say he did everything when he refused to move him up to DC.
Good hire.
This. Spencer and Raymond are the fall guys. Need to go get Raymond, too.lagoag said:

I like whoever Elko likes until they prove to be no bueno
Have only heard he is DLine coach, no co-DC tag. Am I wrong in that. If so and he is only line and recruiting then it's a solid replacement for E-Rob.
As long as the chaos he creates is in the opponent's backfield I am in!
Given our HC's track record as a DC, I'm willing to bet there's a reason for that.FarmerJohn said:

And, pure speculation on my part by the way, the conversation could've gone something like:
Elko: ERob, you're a helluva DL coach, but I don't think you're quite ready to call a defense in the SEC. So, you've got two options. Stay here and be the highest paid position coach in the land. Or, go to work for your buddy and cut your teeth at DC in a more forgiving spot. If you do well, I'll be calling you back over here when my DC leaves for a HC job in a few years.
