Hill has compared his philosophy to Minters 23 UM D (even before he came to UM). But I wonder…

…how much Minter’s 23 D was about Grant, Graham, Barrett, Mikey, etc. being absolute studs within a good defensive design.
I just don’t know what to think about Wink. He got good results with inarguably less talent than Minter had, especially given how poor the offense could be in those two years. But some of what he did just seemed obviously off to me.

Weird to me that there are apparently M fans down on Beck’s offense. He’s the hire that sold me the most on Whittingham…

yeah, i share your sentiment. Once Beck was confirmed I was totally onboard with the Whittingham hire. He took them from something like 99th(!?) in SP+ to 6th on offense.

I haven't noticed that but there are supporters and detractors of every coordinator. I wonder how fans feel about Hill

He’s only been a an OC two years. One of which was at New Mexico. Both years with same qb.

Also, Beck is new to UM, but not to coaching under Whittingham, so maybe that minimizes some of the transition costs…

Rich Rod PTSD. Folks, this is still going to be very manly football. Our beefy boys are going to smash faces! He plays with a 6th OL on half of his snaps!*
