“What are you going to do about your coaching staff? People are pretty disgruntled right now with how things are going”
“Well, I promised a good running back’s dad a job if his son played here, so I figure I’ll pop him in the lineup somewhere.”
“Does he have any experience as a position coach or coordinator.”
“None at all, I’m thinking we’ll force out our most experienced position coach to make room.”
“Are you sure?”
“Don’t worry, my brother has a guy who has been coaching linebackers for two years who I’m going to make the defensive coordinator... I spoke with him on the phone for a few minutes before offering him the job like I usually do, it’s gonna work great.”
“I’m not feeling really confident here...”
“Have I mentioned that I’m only looking at young guys, so of course they’re good at recruiting.”
“That sounds okay.”
“Yeah, the elite schools lock up half a dozen or more top 100 players every class... I’m thinking we’ll keep targeting top 400 kids mostly, and a few diamonds in the rough who are much, much lower, but they and their families have interacted with me and decided they wanted to be around me more, so you know their character is elite.”
“Sounds... great... hey, thanks again for signing that new contract with the really low buyout.”
