Mike Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 So I'm assuming Knox = LB? Nice. Mr. Perfect 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBieber Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Only guy I would choose over Barron Miles to have as a DB Coach is Tony Missick. Great hire for the WBB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wookie Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 i see we are missing two coaches still, d.line and linebacker coaches at least that is what the web sight says, i guess we let the d.line coach go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably could. I doubt he's here to be quality control or any oddball assistant roles.. I'd expect LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 We ought to have made him a lineman coach. Then he would be Barron of beef, but that's Myles away now. Mark F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goalie Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Wonder if Jackson sticks around and becomes either dl or lb coach,whatever Knox isn't. I think its Jackson at least. Was defensive assistant I believe last season. Added him after or during training camp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Good move by the Bombers, I'm actually a bit surprised by the lateral move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Rider fans are saying Miles was a great player but is a terrible coach as he can't teach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Dee Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Rider fans are saying Miles was a great player but is a terrible coach as he can't teach. Apparently, they were right, because Rider fans have not learned anything. Al Bundy and Jimmy Pop 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbill2004 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Here's what a couple Riders fans said about Miles: Maybe the fact that in his time here they brought in like a million other DB coaches to hold his hand? Yeah he is great! observers from early on indicated he was detached, uninvolved and not very vocal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Blue Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 I've read quite a bit from Rider fans on Miles, and some of it is definitely concerning. I am not sure I buy all of it though, particularly since almost everyone seems to speak highly of Miles other than them. Guess we will see what he's like in camp and through the year.

Jacquie Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Here's what a couple Riders fans said about Miles: Maybe the fact that in his time here they brought in like a million other DB coaches to hold his hand? Yeah he is great! Talk about an extreme exaggeration. One season they hired a second DB coach and the guy was gone before his coffee got cold.

gbill2004 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 I've now heard from a few different sources that Miles isn't a good communicator. This hire does concern me a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue204 Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 I've now heard from a few different sources that Miles isn't a good communicator. This hire does concern me a little. Are any of those sources people who play football and have been coached by Miles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Obviously Richie Hall is comfortable with Miles. I wouldn't put too much stock into what Rider fans say. SPuDS 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred C Dobbs Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Meh, since there are people on that site who believe that Lyle/Nate is a Bomber fan, I take what I read there with a far above average degree of skepticism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
