Yeah let's judge coaching prowess on appearance.


The 20 something yr old he's dating sure aint complaining.

Jim Schwartz. We need to get away from the current philosophy. Schwartz is aggressive and he's not becoming a head coach any time soon.

Also let Schwartz bring his own staff. Enough of these half assed measures where we force the guys to keep the current coaches on staff and limit their ability to tweak the defense. Have to go all in this time around…

If Sorensen is "retained" for coaching the DBs that will be awkward. Kyle knew he was in over his head and probably why Staley was brought in.

Totally tubular!!! As Nick Sorensen would say!!!! Far out!!!

Life's gonna be good for Sorensen no matter what…there will always be those dawn patrol mornings to charge glassy, head-high surf at the Lane.

Surfing is a dream, that people on shore can only imagine.

100%. Couldn't have said it better.

Glad they're moving on from him as DC but in reality have nothing against him or completely blame him for the poor D we saw this year - numerous factors contributed.

if he's great at coaching DBs.. let him.

Sounds like they want to keep him, but it will be up to the new DC

Assistant Head Coach = promotion

The only valid promotions recognized under the CBA are coordinator and head coach.

Assistant Head Coach has no actual meaning and is usually offered to a senior assistant as an honorary gesture.

Awesome! Let's get our DC before the 1 we want gets snatched up
Now, need the inside scoop on who will be the new DC (and ST coordinator).

By hoping to retain him does that mean ST coordinator ? Or back to coaching the DBs? We will find out.

I was thinking ST as well. Nick is a high school friend and we have the same circle of friends who we still keep in contact with. Yes, we regressed, pure fact. I feel bad for him and feel so conflicted, lives and breathes football since a very young age. Hope he gets another shot later. This will be a good learning experience for him. I'll get off my soapbox now.

I'm guessing the hope is Nick Sorensen for ST

I hope not. I'd like them to stop getting cute, bring in a proven and consistent veteran STC.
YESSS!!!
A small part of me feels bad that he only got 1 year as D.C. and wasn't allowed to redeem himself but there doing the right thing they can do better than him. Hopefully he stays in some other form but this is the right decision and i'm glad they made it. Same goes for the special teams job,
