Do they? I don't recall any offers to him to move on from the rest of the league.
We have had some good coaches here during Marvin's tenure, some credit has to go to him for seeking them out, some he was saddled with. Outside of Guenther and Simmons, I don't have much faith in this current staff, I hope they prove me wrong. I was never a big fan of Zampese, but I will reserve judgement on his prowess as an OC after last year because of a few injuries, and mainly due to the absolutely pathetic play of Alexander's hand selected players....Og, Bodine, and to a lesser extent, Fisher. Og and Fisher get somewhat of a pass due to experience, Bodine has been here, for what, four years? He still has problems snapping the ball from time to time, ffs.
I was crushed when Hue left. I'll reserve judgment on Z. He's going to have to be able to make better adjustments this year. If Og and Fish play well, he'll have no excuse.
Bodine at least looked like an average player last year. But it sure as shooting took him long enough. I'm praying he makes another significant improvement this year - or that Dielman (sp?) looks good enough to supplant him in 2018.
Cheers!
