Well much more run to go up in the rushing rankings at the Giants than to go down. But greatOLine blocking is out of the control of the RBack coach
Betts to NYG
- Thread starter mstrub
- Start date
The resume boost puts him in line to be a head coach in FCS or maybe a lower lever FBS, if that's what he wants to do eventually.
Dabol is very highly regarded in the NFL and would have a job the next season if fired by the Giants. not a bad guy to align yourself with.
You realize the Chicago Bears are in the NFL, right?
and the Cowboys. And the Jets. And the Raiders. And the Browns.
One of our best coaches.....
Don't dismiss the Lester Erb talk.
Albert Young would be the 1st call I make
- Running backs coach Ladell Betts: $450,000
‘The average salary for an NFL assistant coach in the U.S. is about $400,000 per season.’
I hope he got millions but RB coach isn’t usually at the top of the salary chain.

Sad that you don't understand the improvements in the O-line room that Barnett has made. Line was a semi-finalist for the Joe Moore award, paved the way for a much improved running game and our OL recruiting has really stepped up. Barnett has been a solid contributor to our offense.
Barnett inherited a mess there too. Plumb and DeJong were two of the worst O linemen of the KF era to earn multiple starts. Still need to improve pass pro but they were very good in the run blocking scheme.
Look at almost any coaches resume. First 10 years are full of 5-6 moves up the ladder at different places. That's the industry
Brian was the guy who recruited Kaleb Johnson to come to Iowa. Kaleb said he was reason he ended up here.
I don't know how well he can recruit, but he sure can teach someone how to throw a game.
Forgive me for not fellating GB because he finally managed to put together a halfway-serviceable OL in his 4th season (Joe Moore award semi-finalist - LOL) with the most experienced group in the country, made to look good by one of the best RB in the country. So glad we were able to steal him away from Tulane....
Facts are facts, Iowa was the only unranked team to be selected as a semifinalists in the list of 10 teams. I think the Joe Moore selection committee might know a little more than you. Johnson was the first to mention his offensive line after great rushing games. I don't think you get it.
He's busy with his sports book in Vegas.
i think you have that backwards. he was a rb in high school and we recruited him as a wr. so, the offensive staff showing it's brilliance from the outset.
from si:
"I always knew I wanted to play running back but I never had the opportunity to. The opportunity was at receiver," he said. "At Iowa, we had some great running backs. At Purdue, we had great running backs. So, I just did what the team needed me to do. They needed me to be a receiver, so I went out there and did the best I could."
typical ineptness on offensive side for Iowa.
Thankful for what he did with the hawks- I know as hawk fans we’re used to coaches never leaving but, believe it or not, a five year run is longer than average for assistant coaches at the D-1 level. Hope he has a lot of success in the pros
Hell, it’s a stretch to call it a coaching twig.
what if Bud moves from WR to RB and Lester brings in his guy for WR coach??????
Candidly I’m equally impressed with the development and performance of Moulton and Patterson as I was with Kaleb. Clearly Kaleb was on another level, but the performance of all the younger guys is also a credit to Betts. It’s more than just having an amazing talent in Kaleb - the entire position group was a strength.
This is a big loss imo and will be a critical hire to keep the standard and development high for a position that is so obviously critical to an Iowa offense!

What if Iowa hired actual WR and RB coaches and showed the Bud man the door? I'm baffled how you can trust the judgment or talent of a coach who brought Deacon Hill to Iowa as a QB.
No one said I trust him, but Kirk does and I don't see Kirk allowing him to be let go. I see Lester maybe seeing that RB might be the "easier" of the two positions to coach and that with our lack of talent/production at WR that a true WR coach will make the most difference.
