FootballScoop has a lengthy piece looking at Michigan defensive coordinator Don Brown's philosophy. (LINK) Brown, who got his start in college coaching at Dartmouth and later coached at Yale (where he was a head coaching candidate at one point), reportedly was just awarded a $1.4 million annual contract at Michigan. Why?From the Scoop (italics are mine):
He likely didn’t notice, but Don Brown owes Clemson a debt of gratitude. Thanks to the Tigers’ 511 total yards in the national championship game, Alabama’s total defense average spiked from 244 yards per game allowed to 261.8 yards per game, which means Don Brown’s defense allowed the fewest yards per game in FBS for the second consecutive season.Here's the kicker: He did it at two different schools.
A Brown quote:
“If you’re not running to the ball you’re a traitor. Might as well play for the other team.”
