Forge Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Very bad coordinator. I think he was a fine position coach though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was a fine position coach though I can think of worse coordinators we’ve recently employed. His defense was #2 in the league in turnovers his last full season and his defense was #32 the year before he took over and ended up #20 points against his last full year. Not saying he’s necessarily a great coordinator, but I think there are far worse out there (looking at you O’Neil). Regardless of his history as a D Coordinator, I like this hire, I really think he could do wonders for Reuben. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that's an odd combo, if he's a defensive guy who also works on running the ball. Kinda like having Mangini as an offensive coach that one year.

mw2noobbuster Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Norton isn't coming in to be a coordinator, this is gonna help Ruben a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissooner49er Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Well, I am thoroughly confused with this thread since the original post is now blank... I would love to have Norton as a position coach. Is he now or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still see it. I'm guessing this was a momentary glitch of the tweet forum feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrissooner49er Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Just got back from checking the SacBee and now I see it. No longer blank. Interesting that he is now the Asst. Head Coach! Sure wish Rathman had stuck around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big9erfan Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Assistant HC? What does that mean? He just got fired and we're elevating him to assistant HC? Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. I think it just gives him extra responsibilities. From what everyone saying he's a good positional coach just don't let him play call.

GW21 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I’m thought Bobby Turner was rbs coach and asst head coach. I wonder how many asst head coaches you are allowed to have? Seems to me in years past making a positional coach along with the asst head coach was a way to block other teams from hiring them as coordinators.

I don't think you need that to block position coaches to coordinator moves. You can't block them from interviewing for head coaching jobs, nor can you block a coordinator from interviewing for a head coaching job, but you could always block position coaches interviewing for coordinators jobs. If anything, the assistant head coach title may just be an excuse to give them higher salaries than regular position coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
