Malazan Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I know nothing about this guy, but I will overly positive/negative about him based on what feels I am feeling when I wake up tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Well from reading the O'Neal thread I'm sure many people will be posting here how the Steelers should NOT allow the Bill's to talk with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickelCity Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I know nothing about this guy, but I will overly positive/negative about him based on what feels I am feeling when I wake up tomorrow. Well I hate it because he's awful and we're doomed, but also because he's going to be poached next offseason after doing well, continuing our merry-go-round of coaches.

HankBulloughMellencamp Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I know nothing about this guy, but I will overly positive/negative about him based on what feels I am feeling when I wake up tomorrow. plus side: He was a tough LB when he played minus side: Units under his tutleage were consistently in the bottom third of the league conclusion: Not sure if I should **** or go blind.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I said this in another thread. My buddies say this guy was a scrappy undersized player-- mostly a STer-- who got a lot out of his athletic ability. No real reaction to him as a coach, but they like him as a player.

Green Lightning Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 But he comes from a 3-4 scheme and we're going back, or forth, to a 4-3, or not - maybe. Pass! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackFergy Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 That is a LB name... Hey, where the heck have you been?? Interviewing for the Browns HC gig? I take it you have been moving to CT, correct?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Must be a Whaley connection From the Pitt Post-Gazette: The Steelers might not be done losing assistant coaches. Defensive assistant Jerry Olsavsky, who played nine seasons for the Steelers, will interview with the Buffalo Bills to be their linebackers coach. Olsavksy has been a defensive assistant for four seasons with the Steelers and is looking to become a full-time position coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDD Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 He played against the Bills in one of their playoff games and I remember he physically punished them. The Bills were sent home licking their wounds. Paul Maguire was one of the broadcasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this guy will bring FA LB Jason Worilds with him from Pitt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobillsinytown Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 His family is originally from the area where I live (Youngstown, OH). He bought his parents a very nice house with some of his NFL money, so he seems to be a family oriented guy. As a player he was pretty well respected as a guy who made the most out of the opportunities that came his way and got the most out of his ability. I think it would be a good hire in the sense that he's going to be very motivated and will relate to his players. That being said, if he gets the gig he's going to be judged by how much the LB's improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Caveman Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 How important can a LB coach be? seems like a dime a dozen around here Right, because our LB play has been so consistently stellar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
