Completely agree with this. Brown loves Temple and is possibly the guy who will stay longer than a handful of seasons. Yes, the lack of experience as a coordinator is worrisome, but at this point, you take a chance on him. The guy knows how to recruit is just a good man.
It’s not my job to campaign for
@CoachFranTU
but it seems to me that the best move might be for
@Temple_FB
to hire the man as head coach and then use the $6.5 million in buyout money from
@CoachCollins
and
@Coach_MannyDiaz
to hire a pair of top-shelf coordinators.
