He may be the common denominator for success at Maine and JMU. I love his aggressive style on defense. Think he's in his late 30's. I hope we don't lose him before we begin full time in the Sunbelt.

The only thing I can't figure is how he could not adjust the defense to stop Trey Lance. Other than that he's been amazing.

Perhaps the best defensive coach we've had since Withers. Barlow and Trott were quite good as well, but I'd probably take Hetherman over the others.

Of course I didn't think Brandon Staley was a good DC for JMU, and 7 or 8 years later he's a NFL head coach. Go figure.

Pretty much sure that Withers was behind the D that year and did not let Brandon run his stuff. Other than that one year his defenses were consistently great. Only year he was not good was with Withers which tells you everything you need to know.
