Finding Nemo Disappointing

That massive snowstorm Nemo?

It was a massive disappointment here on the mountain where we topped out at a measly eight inches, hardly enough to get out the snowshoes.
Former Dartmouth offensive coordinator John Perry is the new passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Delaware.

Perry, who played wide receiver (and basketball) at New Hampshire and is a Chip Kelly disciple, had a 29-21 record in five years as head coach at Merrimack. Last fall his team had 62-, 63- and 81-point games while finishing second in the nation in total offense. It marked the fourth year in a row that Merrimack was in the nation's top 10 in total offense.

JP was at Dartmouth from 1999-2004.

From the Delaware release:
“John is someone that I grew up with and have known for 35 years,” said Penn State football head coach Bill O’Brien. “He is an outstanding person with a wonderful family. John is an innovative offensive coach and most importantly, a winner. He will be a great addition to Coach Brock’s staff at the University of Delaware.”
