New WR Coach / Passing Game Coordinator: Ross Douglas (Official)

[phil77]

Ok Basketball game is over. Who is this guy lol

 

[phil77]

Reads well. Johnson staying so like others state problem QB coach. He did work with Vick I think in Atlanta if I remember correctly.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

Were the Pats going to fire him? How does the Patriots WR Coach go to Syracuse for the same role?

Fran-effect. Women want to be with him, men want to be him.

I think it’s more evidence the Pats are going to have a reset. Probably going to get a pass game coordinator title or be given a big role in game planning.

 

[kmart128]

So Michael Johnson I assume is QB coach.

He's the man every strong woman wants and every weak woman needs...

 

[Stevenson]

Guess they couldn’t get Tiquan Underwood. He caught the end of NE winning culture at least.

The Pats last good season was 2019-2020 (lost in first round of playoffs)

Ross started in 2021 right as the dumpster caught on fire.

I am feeling a Chick Norris themed thread for HCFB

 

[bnoro]

Do we know for a fact Johnson is staying?

Do we know for a fact Johnson is staying?

I thought it was noted he was out recruiting and was tagged in Twitter/x

 

[bnoro]

My colleague was a fb manager at RU while Ross was there as QC. Said he was a great coach and person, and a grinder. Spot the trend

I grew up listening to the patter of Philly r'n'b deejays. I kind-of mashed 'em together:

"More man to love. If you can't do it, lead me to it. If I can't do it, it can't be done. I'm the man every strong woman wants and every weak woman needs."

Which, as you might expect, is more or less the story of my life.

Great news!

Coach Fran is building a young, dynamic staff.

Really excited about the Program!

Im a big Pats fan. From what I read they really like him and thinks he's a up and coming coach. I remember watching some all access practice video's from last years Shrine bowl. The Pats staff coached one of the teams. I believe Ross ran the offense.

Ross was the OC and QB coach for the West squad.

As bnoro said, there is a clear trend to all of Fran's hires. Brown has been impressive in all phases to date.

 

[CNYGuy]

Jeff Nixon ?	Offensive Coordinator
Michael Johnson ?	Quarterbacks
	Running Backs
Nunzio Campanile	Tight Ends
Ross Douglas	Wide Receivers
Devin Redd	Asst Wide Receivers
Steve Farmer ?	Offensive Line
Elijah Robinson	Defensive Coordinator
Nick Williams ?	Defensive Ends
Robert Wright ?	Linebackers
	Defensive Backs

I’m going to assume Redd is a QC or Analyst.

Given you can only have 10 assistants and Special Teams isn’t listed yet, I’d bet one of the vacancies is special teams unless someone takes on those duties in addition to position coach.

If it’s Nixon, I’d assume he coaches RBs and Robinson takes DTs since Williams listed only DEs.

If you take out Redd, I’d bet Special Teams, OL and DBs make up the 3 vacancies if Johnson is indeed staying.

Nothing that indicates he was being fired:

Former Colorado defensive ends coach Nick Williams has joined Fran Brown’s coaching staff to assume the same position at Syracuse. Williams posted about the announcement on X, formerly known as Twitter, Monday afternoon. The announcement comes a day after the Orange picked up defensive coordinator Elijah Robinson from Texas A&M.

While coaching at Boulder, Williams presided over a unit that had the sixth-most sacks in the Pacific 12 Conference, but was part of an overall defense that was the third-worst scoring defense in the conference. Williams is the third position coach to leave CU head coach Deion Sanders’ staff this offseason.

Before coming to Colorado, Williams coached under Jimbo Fisher for two seasons at Texas A&M. According to his biography page on CU Athletics’ website, he joined the Aggies’ staff in May 2021 and helped them recruit the No. 1 ranked signing class in 2022.

At Brown’s introductory press conference at SU Monday morning, he said he treats recruiting coaches like players. He wants them all to advance in their profession and seek better opportunities when the time comes.

Thought they make the playoffs Mac’s first year, isn’t it his third year?

I like that we got a young nfl wr coach. That will help with recruiting.

It seems one of Browns priorities in his staff is “young and hungry” to go with “ hard workers and Relationship builders”

27-Year-Old Patriots Coach Has Earned Bill Belichick's 'Complete Trust'

Youngest position coach In the NFL.

From Avon, Ohio, just west of Cleveland.

Guessing he might get passing game coordinator as an additional title.

This has to be the youngest staff of any P5 team. A little scared at the lack of experience, but no one will have more energy than these guys.
