If rumors are to be believed, Williams was pretty pissed about the way Diaco, our DC last year, wanted things done. Williams supposedly wanted a real aggressive style of play, but Diaco is more of a soft, bend-don't-break, full-time Prevent mentality kind of guy. I don't think we really got to see what he's capable of as a coach in our one year with him.
Welcome! thank you for your thoughts.

Can you tell us about your S&C coach Mark Phillipp?

BTW. I would say that Clark was a good coach and an average to below average recruiter. Glad we kept Heyward. he's a good coach and recruiter.
Why do you say that? Not challenging you - just curious because I am in the dark about the inner-workings of our team and staff.

Kinda the same story. The end result was thoroughly unimpressive, but I'm not sure how much of that was him vs. Riley. Rumors of certain guys being allowed to skip workouts.

Agreed but Williams was hired as an OLB coach. Imagine bringing in Martin as DB coach...that recruiting

Anything else on TAMU's former RB coach?
Why would any of us want Martin? UCLA fans say he was a terrible coach?

In 2016, the Bruins secondary ranked seventh in the nation in pass defense efficiency (105.8) and 22nd in the nation in interceptions (15). Those marks ranked second and third in the Pac-12 conference listings. In addition, the Bruins rated 38th in the nation in turnovers gained (23). UCLA gave up just 12 touchdown passes on the year, the lowest total by a Pac-12 school. The 5.7 yards per pass attempt allowed ranked tied for the lowest mark in the conference.

Fabian Moreau, Randall Goforth and Jaleel Wadood each earned honorable mention all-conference recognition. Moreau was a third-round pick of the Washington Redskins in the 2017 NFL Draft. Goforth, who signed with the Eagles, ranked 31st in the nation in total interceptions (4) and 21st in the nation in passes defended (1.2). Wadood was tied for 9th in the Pac-12 in tackles (7.0/g). Moreau ranked tied for sixth in the league in passes defended (1.0). Marcus Rios inked a contract with the Denver Broncos and Ishmael Adams signed with the Rams.

In 2015, the Bruins secondary led the Pac-12 in pass defense, allowing the fewest average yards per game and the lowest average yards per pass attempt (5.6) of any school in the 2015 season. UCLA also led the Pac-12 Conference in pass defense efficiency (111.5), ranking 18th nationally in the category, and producing three players who received all-conference recognition - Goforth (second team), Wadood (second team) and Rios (honorable mention).

In 2014, four of his defensive backs were honored with All-Pac-12 accolades (Adams-1st team; Moreau and Anthony Jefferson-2nd team; Wadood honorable mention). The unit ranked third in the Pac-12 conference in pass defense. Jefferson, who led the secondary with 72 tackles and was invited to the Senior Bowl, signed with the Chicago Bears. He joined Moreau in a tie for the team lead with eight passes defensed

Interesting insight as to why the assistant coaching search is taking a bit longer under Cristobal: https://scoopduck.com/s/1435/the-waiting-game/2

He's also having to hire a bunch of other off-field positions so it's not just his coaching staff he's having to hire. I expect it to really pick up once the coaches' convention starts tomorrow and ends on the 10th.

Couple interesting follows by Cristobal on Twitter in Aaron Feld and Shaud Williams. Feld is an assistant S&C coach at UGA who previously worked at Alabama in 2014 while Shaud Williams is a former Alabama player in the early 2000s who's now an assistant S&C coach at Wisconsin.

I certainly wouldn't mind getting a S&C guy from Bama or Georgia.
