Title: Another Coach O
Post by: Snaggletiger on January 14, 2020, 02:49:37 PM
Or O-line Coach.  Gus done stolt one from Ole Miss.  Jack Bicknell, Jr. was named to replace Co Grimes.  Spent the last 3 seasons at OM but has a good bit of NFL experience with several teams including Miami, Pittsburgh, Kansas City and NY Giants.

Other than that, I have no idea about the guy or how good he is.  Anyone?  Anyone?  Bueller?  Bueller?

Seems like a good hire on paper. But I’m still waiting for the other shoe to drop. What’s the catch?

I know his daddy by reputation.  I remember him being coach at Boston College for that brief period they were good.  Seems like he coached Flutie and I'm pretty sure he was their coach the year Bo kicked BC's ass.  Possible the guy Gus just hired played for that team, but don't know that for sure.  Seems like there was a Bicknell linebacker playing for daddy Bicknell. 


He was at Ole Miss for three years.  That isn't a glowing recommendation.   Other than that, I got zero.

No but they got better at rushing the ball each year and was 2nd in the SEC this year.  They were second in passing his first two years.  Was way worse this year.  How much of that is talent and the OC's play calling and how much of it was because of his line coaching is anyone's guess. That is the only bright spot I see.
