He also played in the NFL as a linebacker for a few years
Shafer was cussing like a sailor during that introduction so I missed the DC thing as I thought he was just cussing english style.
Doesn't hurt to have some west coast connections here. Why did he leave UCLA...promotion or let go?

Looks like it was Neuheisel covering his ass after a 4-8 season.
One thing I found was that Neuheisal wanted to switch from a 4-3 to a 3-4. Probably deeper than that. Looks like UCLA was #32 in total defense his first year as DC (2009), but dropped considerably in 2010.

He definitely has a face for radio.That's not a flattering picture.

Yea i definately dont wanna lose the nyc pipeline we are doin very well. Im afraid losing marrone will hurt bigtime! We need to keep alselmo and get another city guy on our coaching staffNote that Western Michigan on his resume
I think he should be referred to as Chuck DIESEL going forward. It just sounds more intimidating if our DC has Diesel in his name somewhere.

I posted on this topic before...
I disagree, the "NYC pipeline" isn't important to me. There aren't enough FBS players coming out of New York to bring in a coach just to lock the region down. I'd rather get a coach that contributes to the staff, elevates the level of play, and ultimately helps wins extra games. If that happens, the in-state kids will stay home on their own and won't need to be recruited. The program will recruit itself. A plus-recruiter is an added bonus if it gets us into the high schools of the high production states (int he South or Ohio) but I don't see it as a bonus if this coach specializes in helping us win the 1 or 2 annual 4 star products out of NYC. We didn't get Ebo. We didn't get Ishaq Williams. Wayne Morgan was a nice addition.
New York state produces less "blue chips" per capita than places like Montana, North and South Dakota, Alaska, Delaware, and Connecticut.

Solid recruiter is a definitely nice quality to possess but let's not go out of our way to get one solely for New York and Northeast ties.
Shafer is fired up about him but the resume doesn't do much.

they beat us out for a DC DT a few years agoAs well as DC, Bullough was also East Coast recruiting coordinator for UCLA. Not sure how many east coast kids they brought in, but he had to at least develop some ties at the big name schools in the east that they at least offered to

Looking at "blue chips" out of NYC isn't exactly fair because, in general, their football players are underdeveloped.
A guy like Bromley wasn't anywhere on the radar coming out of high school but I'll be willing to bet come draft time next year he'll be going ahead of a number of "blue chip" defensive linemen.
NYC and Long Island were a big emphasis by Mac's staff, and Marrone renewed that. This year alone, we had 3 defensive starters (Reddish, Diabate, Bromley) who are from or from near the City, and each were impact players. About 1/6 of the roster is from or near the City. I'm not saying we need 3 guys on the staff with strong ties to that area, but we need at least one.

Agreed. I'm not saying this is a bad hire but it is somewhat worrisome.
