New Co-DC/LB Coach: Robert Wright [Official]

[Cuse12]

This man did not deserve to get fired coach Fran let his emotions play a big role in last year’s collapse. The defense was on the field so much due to the horrific offense that many defenders flat out quit playing hard. E. Robs scheme was also non affective, I think coach Wright we’ll have a bright future and coaching for a long time.

Ya I question this firing. He coached up our rookie LB well I would say. Unfortunately though, heads have to roll with a 3 win szn. He just was on the chopping block when it came to looking for change. He surely was a big reason our safety grant came here and he provided us with some memorable highlights.

I got to know him a little bit. He was a great dude. He will be great with mcvay

Considering he was co-DC, I’m not clear how he was never to blame but ERob was 100% responsible

Likely because ERob was seen as calling the shots and scheme and the “co-DC” title was more of an honorific title.

I think the biggest reason he got fired was he was tasked with researching the way of “tackling” and implementing it for the players… it still wasn’t good enough last season.
