Back when Michael also used to "assist" the defense
In a slightly surprising move, Randy has “promoted” LB coach Michael Barrow to the role of Defensive Assistant. Nice. Barrow now will be able to focus on other general tasks, and here’s hoping he just goes out and recruits non stop the entire season, and this is a figure head title for him. New DC John Lovett will take over the LB job. Seems Lovett was pissed he was a Defensive Assistant for all those years under Butch, and it’s time for someone else to ride the pine for awhile. Barrow is the odd man out.
This pretty much opens the door wide open for uber-recruiter Clint Hurtt to become the next DC when Lovett steps down, or decides he can’t resist going back to his alma mater, C.W. Post College.
I thought John “Don’t you just Lovett” Lovett was a DB and special teams guru. When the fuck did he become better at coaching LB’s than Mike Barrow?
Randy swears that this isn’t a demotion (then reason you quoted ‘promotion’), but I’m totally taken back by the situation. Last year we had LB recruit after recruit saying they wanted to play at The U cause who else better than Mike Barrow could coach the position.
I’m still of the belief that “Lovett or Hatett” is a puppet DC. Randy will run the show and “I’m not sure I Lovett” is satisfied with the job of coaching LB’s.
Damn DenverCane. You should apply to write for Conan’s move to The Tonight Show. You are on fire!
