[QUOTE="ChiefGritty, post: 2018394, member: 746137"] Playcaller to non-playcaller, so it's a downgrade in that sense, but he's leaving ISU with a full Matt Campbell merit badge, and now he's off to get his Sean McVay merit badge, he's building an extremely strong resume here with name guys who command respect in the industry. He's 33 years old. Getting the full time RB coach gig at like 24 when Beckman got fired really supercharged his career. And obviously he's been mature beyond his years from the day he arrived as a player, he was capable of handling it. Just kind of a question now of where he wants to go and what he wants to do, he'll be a member of staff in good standing anywhere he wants at this point, but to get the big spotlight and the big payday he will eventually have to cross the bridge to a job where he could fail. But he's got the time to be selective about it. Not so much first obvious sign as lots of little signs, but yeah, a certain ambivalence to college jobs is a thing now, no denying it. One man's waste dump is another man's opportunity though. [/QUOTE]
