There'll be a lot of connections to Bill Parcells on this new coaching staff. Definitely a positive imo.
I really like what Bowles is doing. Everything he's doing makes perfect sense. DC to coach up the line, he will handle overall playcalling and D scheming and work toward his strength with DBs. Bringing in the experienced Gailey to handle all offense. Great moves so far.
This just about wraps it up. Agreed. The real icing on the cake would be if they keep Dunbar. Bowles, Rodgers and Dunbar would be one hell of a defensive staff. Nation... of Domination!
Kacy Rodgers Kacy Rodgers enters his fourth season as a member of the Dolphins’ coaching staff, having joined the club after a five-year stint with the Dallas Cowboys (2003-07), the final three of which he tutored that team’s defensive line. In 2010, Miami finished seventh in rush defense and third in rushing yards per carry at 3.6. Rodgers oversaw a defensive line that featured Randy Starks, who played in his first career Pro Bowl, and also featured career best performances from Kendall Langford, Tony McDaniel and Paul Soliai. The unit will receive a boost from 2010 first-round draft pick Jared Odrick, who returns after being limited to one game last season due to injury. Rodgers’ first two years with the Cowboys (2003-04) were spent coaching the club’s defensive tackles. Under Rodgers, defensive tackle La’Roi Glover was selected to the Pro Bowl each year from 2003-05. In four of Rodgers’ five seasons with Dallas, the team ranked in the top ten in the NFL in rush defense, including a No. 6 finish in 2007 when they allowed an average of just 94.6 yards rushing per game. Before entering the NFL ranks, Rodgers was an assistant at the collegiate level, including posts at Tennessee-Martin (1994-97), Louisiana-Monroe (1998), Middle Tennessee State (1999-2001) and Arkansas (2002). He tutored the defensive line at all four stops, while having also been assistant head coach at Tennessee-Martin (1997) and Middle Tennessee (2000-01). Rodgers was a four-year letterman at the University of Tennessee (1988-91), where he played linebacker and defensive end on teams that won a pair of Southeastern Conference championships (1990, 1991) and appeared in three New Year’s Day bowl games. He earned his degree in political science from the school in 1993. Following his playing career he went to training camp with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1992 as a college free agent. He also played with the Shreveport Pirates of the Canadian League in 1994. Rodgers is a native of Humboldt, Tennessee where he starred at Humboldt High School. He and his wife, Marcella, have a son, Kacy II, who is a sophomore at the University of Miami.
Arizona LB coach expected to be on Bowles' staff as well. Man, we really are trying to start the Nation of Domination!
I am loving all of this. Clearing house completely. New GM, new OC, new DC, new HC... We needed a change and not just a small one.
I'm not worried about Dunbar at all. He was a great coach, but a lot of the success is due to the talent we have. Wilk, Richardson, and Snacks are pretty fuckin talented. I'm sure they'll thrive with Bowles and Rodgers.
