Sam Webb confirms:
Multiple sources saying Boston College def. coordinator Don Brown to #Michigan is true. Word from a BC player is Brown informed team already

Is this good news? Seems like good news.
December 20th, 2015 at 5:21 PM ^
I never share premium info from other sites, but this is too good not to share here(hope it's OK). Sam Webb talked to a BC player who told him the following:
"Our d coordinator is leaving for Michigan. I swear y'all might go to the playoffs next year."
"With our talent we were the best defense in the country. So I could only imagine what Michigan will be like. We loved him... He was by far my favorite coach. Definitely a father figure."

Guys,
This is OT, and I would make a board post, but I don't have enough points. Rashan Gary's mom legitimately responds on Cleveland.com articles! Specifically, she's trashing the bucknuts who call her an overbearing helicopter mom for trashing o$u's academic presentation. It's quite funny.
Caveat: I cannot 100% confirm it's her (it's a comment section), but the user goes by the name Jennifer Coney-Shepherd and definitely sounds like she'd be his mom. And this is the SECOND time I've seen her post on this site.
Here's the link:

Just go to the comments section and CTRL+F her name
EDIT: It is her! It's linked to her FB page. And wow, these bucknuts are fucking stupid saying some of this shit. Really shouldn't tweet at recruits/trash their fam on public news articles, lol

Is that the defense goes up against a shitty offense in practice yet they play great against real offenses in games despite not getting challenged in practices.
So I'm happy with this hire and he will probably be with us a few years before he retires.

If Harbaugh thinks he is a good coordinator then welcome aboard. He appears to be a good coordinator and he's here early enough to help with recruits and maybe the bowl game.
December 20th, 2015 at 4:26 PM ^
Wow??
December 20th, 2015 at 6:45 PM ^
WOW!!!! I think you are on to something. Looking forward the Friday WOW pos bang!

BC has good defenses but putrid offenses right?
December 20th, 2015 at 4:28 PM ^
Not sure what kind of base formation he'd run, but I bet it would run at at least 1.21 jigawatts per play.

December 20th, 2015 at 4:28 PM ^
Well they did have a damn good defense...and the shittiest offense ever. Maybe worse than ours last year and that's saying something.

I watched some of the BC vs ND game, and couldn't help but think if BC had an average offense that game would have been much different. Brown did a lot with nothing; but I'm still cautiously optimistic. A lot of times putting together a staff requires chemistry as well, hopefully the defensive staff can mesh in the offseason.
