Not sure what capacity yet but it appears Joe Rossi is headed to the Land of 10,000 Lakes with Fleck. Is Fleck going to hire Flood next? This is getting a little ridiculous.
Rossi Hired by Minny
- Thread starter bigmatt718
- Start date
Rossi did an excellent job with special teams. I would take him back in an instant to be our special teams coach.
Flood was OL coach from 2007-2011. Here's what our our O did in his time as OL coach:
2007 - 18th (best year in RU history, NO question)
2008 - 39th
2009 - 97th
2010 - 114th
2011 - 99th
....case closed. Actually I'd love for him to be at Minnesota lol!
Terry Shea is still available (when not making QB videos)--http://www.sports-reference.com/cfb/coaches/terry-shea-1.html
2007/2008 Experienced QB
2009 true Freshman QB disaster of a scheme switch
2010 true freshman QB disaster of a scheme switch part 2
2011 true freshman QB
Flood was a disaster at HC...there is no single person on this board who holds credence to me about him as an OL coach. I still see much of those OLs at my house each summer.
No one could possibly argue those OL. Good thing they were all so good that no one had to show them a thing lol
Who was the OL coac
Who was the OL coach that charted the holes for Ray Rice
Wasn't he also the O-line coach the Year we nearly got Tom Savage killed?
2005 - 44th
2006 - 58th
...so as time moved along, and he lost Rice, he FAILED miserably. In part, because he sucked as a recruiter, but that's part of the job.

Yea when we switched to a spread from a pro style with pro style personnel with a pro style OL coach
Stop. Please. You don't see HC's banging down his door to coach at ANY level for a reason. Actually, for several.
You mean the NCAA D1 record for most sacks allowed in a season (2010)?
That was same year the OL coach was a O-coordinator lol
He was a joke as an OC. He was an even worse OL recruiter.
Track records speak for themselves. Good coaches sustain success. Period. You can't live off of 1 good year forever. It doesn't happen anywhere.
Terry Shea would be a very good choice for a QB coach. He has an excellent reputation as a QB clinician.
I for one think Flood would be an amazing o line hire at Minnesota... for us.
I'll give nuts and anyone else their due to say they called it right on Floid as a HC.
Anyone that thinks he had full control of OL recruiting is wrong and anyone who thinks co-oc was anything more than a fake title to reward him for his OL work is an idiot. Straight from the guys who were getting dirty and not posting on a message board. "His duties never changed with the title or when Greg said he was in charge of OL recruiting"
Same guys who got dirty for him- to a man, will tell you he was a great OL coach.
Lots of reasons for the failures that include major misses with no backup plan and so many other things. It sometimes sounds from you all that Flood only made an effort up until Kevin but after that he just gave up or forgot OL.
It ended up mostly being recruiting but 2010 and 2011 should have been guys recruited in 2006-2008. Sorry but at that point, Flood didn't "own" OL recruiting...
So, I'll take the word directly from those OL over anyone here.

talent overcomes a lot :D I give a lot of credit to the OL coach before Flood for some of the o-line play in 2005 and 6 because he started the development of the juniors and seniors Flood inherited when he was hired in 05.
