[NU Sports] LB coach

[cherron604 at aol.com]

According to his bio, there was no time for playing
 
 
BS Ohio State 83
MEd  Miami(O) 85
 
Muskingum  82-83
Miami(O)     83-84
St Joseph   84-88
Navy         88-92
New Hampshire   92-97
Kent State  97-00
Louisiana Tech   00-06
 
It also said he took over as DC last year after Spring Drills were complete.
 
He improved their Total Defense from 84th to 68th in Division 1, 381.3 yards per game.  We were at 119th last year, 482.9 ypg
 
He improved Scoring Defense from 92nd to 60th, 25.5 points per game.  We were at 32.5 ppg in 105th
 
He improved Rushing Defense from 78th to 39th, 1465 rushing yards.  We were 111th, 2307 yards
 
So he has been able to improve the defense that he inherited
 
Obviously, the WAC is not the Big 10, but they are an offensively-oriented conference, and Louisiana Tech does play a strong group of non-conference games.

His LA Tech bio says he graduated from OSU with a degree in Physical Education
bus says nothing about his playing days....
 
He also has a very similar background as Eric Washington, both coached at Navy
and are retired Navy Lt's.
 
In any case, he appears to be a 10 year older version of Fitz - success
everywhere he's been, and that's a good thing.

Did Bates play for OSU?

Since Randy Bates was Colby's LB assistant at Kent State, I'd expect an

improvement in the defense, but then I would expect that improvement if there

hadn't been a coaching change.



In any case, the LA Tech folks talked about the Colby-Bates link in their first

stories and Bates' options should Colby go somewhere else after this year would

include being DC OR going with Colby.



Speed will be the key to our defense this year, and I think we just might have

the quickness and experience up front to get it done.

We took LSU's defensive coordinator for a linebacker coach?  

Now, that's a 

coup.  Does anyone smell a new DC for NU next season whose 

name will not be 

Brown?
