Former Dartmouth assistant Don Brown has been chosen the FootballScoop Defensive Coordinator of the Year. This is what the Scoop wrote of Brown, who came to Dartmouth from Hartford (Vt.) High School and moved on to Michigan to join Jim Harbaugh's staff earlier this month:“Don is real. He is a tough, New England guy and he has come up the hard way like we all have – the small college route through New England,” BC head coach Steve Addazio said of Brown earlier this fall. “You have to love him because that’s who he is. He loves defense; attack-blitzing defense. He can really build a great attitude, a toughness, and he’s done that to our defense.”
