Message: [QUOTE="Xanadu, post: 4536652, member: 4884"] Look at his bio. Worked as a DB coach for the Bills and spent a few years in Miami as the Chief of Staff. Also coached the HS All American Games. Reed has been coaching or involved at the HS, college, and pro level since he retired in 2013. Recruiting pitch from a DB coach that was a 9-time pro bowler and most prolific DB of his generation tends to sell itself. Seems to be working for Deion. UBC agreed to the initial contract and put Reed to work on the recruiting trail. They refused to honor the deal when they realized he wasn’t willing to negotiate down on resource investments for the athletics department. There was speculation of his contract being structured around expectations of similar success as Deion (holding Reed to that standard) but they balked at the resourcing and investment that would be necessary to get the program out of the SWAC cellar.
