New Asst WR Coach: Devin Redd

[orangefog]

Yes, it’s hard to explain over text but I say with 100% certainty he’s happy lol.

I miss words.

 

[SmilinBob]

That emoji fall under the “that’s fire” category of emoji responses, haha

One that looks sad and is drooling is fire? Interesting.

 

[qdawgg]

I think it's relief?

Ahhh, that makes sense

 

[oldpinepoint]

I know it’s complicated lol. Being in my late 20s I’m still able to translate for the board so you have to trust me

Possible that Wax knows him as he is from the DMV

 

[Goin' Deep]

OK...this one bothers me... roughly 36 years old..OK no problem...
But where he's been...? Not to stunning a resume'.

Does Gadsden come back for this...?

 

[JDubbin]

It's blowing smoke...

 

[Mr. M]

What does an Asst WR coach do? Mostly just recruiting? And is this the first time Syracuse ever had an Asst WR coach on staff?

I know an Asst WR coach at a Big 10 program. they coach WR’s during practices running drills, teaching the playbook and game planning. Not focused on recruiting so much but def support recruiting activities.

 

[orangeinohio]

Ahhh, that makes sense

Yeah, it's a big exhale

 

[dollarbill44]

My emoji translator says it is a sigh. So, is it a sigh of relief or exasperation?
Be more clear, please.

lol he’s an assistant

Most assistants like this are from low ranks.

His priority is going to be recruiting


Y’all need to chill and give this man some time to work

[OrangeXtreme]

Not sure I understand Marlowe’s tweet in response?

The face exhaling emoji is a yellow, circular emoji with a face exhaling a cloud of smoke or vapor. It is often used to show that someone is exhaling, smoking, or vaping, or to indicate that something is hot or spicy.

 

[orangeinohio]

I thought it was exhaling in relief but I guess some emojis have different meanings.

 

[SUFaninNJ]

I miss words.

I had to ask a poster last night what a crispy J was. I had no idea that he was referring to sneakers.

Feel free to move this to the OT Getting Old thread!

OK...is he THE WR coach...known as an assistant coach..?
Just like a RB coach or LBer coach?
Or is he an assistant to a WR coach ?

It's fine to be a position coach who can recruit. But that WR freshman recruit comes in looking to someone who can improve his ability/improve route running etc.

 

[FLorange]

I found this in Coach Redd’s X feed.

Aaron Mannicci (@AMannicciCuse) a recruiting staffer that was with Fran Brown at both Rutgers and Georgia has joined the #Syracuse staff. Another person with deep ties to the NJ recruiting footprint.

Sorry if posted elsewhere.

Just a hunch, but Gadsden's situation probably hinges on who he believes will be throwing to him.

Why are so many people equating recruiting ability with lack of coaching ability?

 

[orangenauburn]

This.

He even said coaches get the chance to be the head guy because they can recruit, so why would he stop doing what he is good at

 

[Cusester]

Why are so many people equating recruiting ability with lack of coaching ability?

It's called the "Locksley" effect.

It's called the "Locksley" effect.

I came down with a bad case of McFckit's Disease in the past. There's nothing to say good recruiters can't succeed, but it's okay to be a little apprehensive until they do.

That having been said, Fran's got just a ton of connections to Cuse I was unaware of (Darius, Deleone, Coyne) and while I don't know if he's going to succeed, he's convinced me that if he fails it won't be because he wasn't passionate about the school and the program.

Reading comprehension is extremely important.
.ASSISTANT WR coach. That means he isn't THE WR coach.

 

[GreekFreak]

It's hard. I have two kids, the only reason I pick up on this stuff.

Reminds me of this SNL skit with Pedro Pascal:

I appreciate the interpretation, thank you.

 

[Goin' Deep]

See Doug Marrone.
I think he's a solid football mind but was NOT a good recruiter.
The 2 don't often go hand in hand.

Obviously a very stylish pair of Air Jordans duh (three high school kids here, the only reason I had even an inkling of a clue)
