Quote:My point was that is no excuse for the players having a learn a new system or that they don't fit the scheme. This is Bradley's hand picked coach, this is Bradley's defense, and Bradley fixes or we move on.

I'm inclined to agree with some posters on here about this pick...

 

*for starters, given that Gus is the HC and this defense is his defense, someone else would probably want to change it and there would be conflict right away.

*I don't see this as a promotion so much as just a title with the real function being scapegoat. I suspect that Gus will more or less be running the defense this season.

*given that this is Gus's 'sink or swim' season, and since it is his defensive scheme, it would be logical for him to run the defense. No more dodging the bullet if​ ​when the defense fails again.
