  • What is Harmon's "Part C"?

    I've stopped reading his articles and just follow his tweets.

    Yesterday he posted that the first two parts of the big three-part coaching change that he'd been predicting for several weeks were in place:

    A) Anae gone. &

    B) Doman signed as OC.

    Part C, he says, will still happen, but on a different time-line of Coach C's own choosing...

    Last night I went back and read a couple weeks of his tweets, and I couldn't figure out where he said Coach C was. Who is the coach associated with this Part C? Detmer? He's really the only other potential coach that Harmon even discussed...

    I could be wrong, but I think he just means further shake-ups of the offensive staff. I don't know if he means anything specific, or if he does, I haven't seen it.

      He sure sounds like it's a specific person who will be on board when it's good for them.

      On another point - it was interesting to hear from the statements yesterday that the rest of the offensive coaching picks will all be Bronco's. Ultimately, it's clear that everyone reports up to Bronco. But if I were OC, I'd want to be picking my position coaches.

      The other guy Part C could be is Ben Cahoon. Harmon did mention him once or twice. He'd be a more logical immediate fit than Detmer...

        I assumed it was the Detmer thing but now that I think about it, it could also be the Higgins/Cahoon thing. I truly hope we don't go into the season with a first year OC who is only a 5th (?) year coach and who is not only the OC but also the QB coach whose presumed starter is a second year kid. That sounds like a bad way to begin when you have a tough early slate.

          A.nea gone
          B.randon Hired
          C.ahoon in.


          Makes sense to me!

              I think that's right. Poppinga took a defensive spot vacated by Hill but no one has taken Anae's offensive spot.

                I'm sure he's talking about Detmer.

                  What makes you think Harmon knows what Part C is? There's a TE coach opening to be filled, but there might be more openings in the future. There will be at least one more hire, but there also might be changes in responsibilities with the existing staff.

                    True, I think Harmon has learned a lot by reading CB and being in TBS chat.

                    You throw something out there and later claim that was what you were talking about.

                      As some have said. Detmer doesn't make much sense. Bronco re-iterated yesterday that he believes Doman is the best QB coach in the country. So why downgrade to Detmer? Save the money and the coaching position for somewhere you need help.

                        Given Harmon's sometimes interesting writing style (Heaps = hamburger) I have to assume that he was referring to Ben C=Cahoon. That being said, I think that the final step(s) might involve more shuffling than just bringing Cahoon in and that Bronco's going to take some time to figure out what will work best with the offensive coaches currently on staff and anyone new he might bring in.

                          I know this is off topic but the funniest thing I have ever seen involved Aussiecoug accosting DH in the lobby of the Monte Carlo in Vegas four years ago. He clearly had no clue who he was and she screamed his name out from halfway across the lobby like he was her long-lost father.
                          Awesomeness now has a name. Let me introduce myself.

                            The irony. Most of the other married men on CB would have been calling out her name in a similar situation, if they knew who she was.

                              I know she was the recipient of a lot of flirtations, did her RL looks and personality warrant the attention?
