I think the more worrisome thought for me is that Littrell is basically coaching for his job at this point, and he decides to hire a guy with zero experience on the DL.

Bennett is obviously a fantastic DC, but hitching your wagon to a guy like that is a huge dice roll that seems like its more than likely destined to hit snake eyes.

I hope to God I'm wrong and Passwaters is the next coming of Bill Belichick, but I'm a pessimist so I'm expecting the worst.

Letting your coordinator pick his position coaches is the norm. Getting in the way of what he wants, even if your job is on the line, has some slippery implications.

I guess, but you are the head coach. Bennett seems to be doing Littrell a favor here, which is fine by me, but letting him dictate what could possibly cost your job? Talk about slippery implications.

I don't worry about this.  I don't believe that Phil will allow his future? son-in-law to fail.  Bennett knows his defensive scheme like the back of his hand and think that he will feed his system to Passwaters night and day during the off-hours.  The defensive line was a key to success at Baylor and will likely be here as well.  Under the circumstances this could be the best possible scenario, especially since the defensive line is likely our strongest defensive unit.

It's certainly encouraging that Passwaters was not a detriment to getting Enoch Jackson on board.    But I'm obviously in the "show me" state of mind with him.

Hope he surprises us all. Hopefully the players are comfortable with him

      Some of you think these professional athletes have to go to classes?

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?
