His resume doesn't jump off the page at you but it also doesn't scream bum either. I have seen well respected said about him multiple times, for what that's worth.
He may soar, he may crash and burn. Most likely, it'll be somewhere in between. Time will tell.
Marvin was supposed to be a LB whisperer and it turned out he couldn't coach up a LB with a gun to his head. LB ended up being our worst overall position group his entire time here.
The past can predict the future but it isn't always right.
Different situations, different circumstances, sometimes you end up with different results. Sometimes a guy doesn't really shine until he gets just the right situation. Here's hoping this is his ideal situation.
The HC has a lot to say about how a coordinator coaches. Ask Bill Lazor.
Back to time will tell--the picture will start to form with free agency and the draft, i.e., what players are targeted and ultimately signed, what players, what kind of players, are drafted. Patterns will emerge.
But the bottom line is, as much as we want to know right now, we just won't.
I'm sure absolutely none of us are hoping he'll fail. Expecting him to fail is probably premature.
But the most salient point I've seen made here is that if the LB situation isn't fixed, God himself would struggle coaching our D. If we do fix that, the rest of our defense, which is definitely not without assets, will look a whole lot better.
