It is always interesting who ends up on coaching staffs.
The Skins have Ike Hilliard as their WR coach, Deuce Gruden (Jon Gruden's son) as their strength & conditioning coach, Jim Tomsula (49ers head coach for a season), Wes Phillips (Wade Phillips son), Kirk Olivadotti (son of Tom Olivadotti who was a LB coach for the Giants), Chad Grimm (son of Russ Grimm of 'Hogs' fame), DC Greg Manusky who played LB for the Redskins a long time ago and OC Matt Cavanaugh who played QB for the NYG.
no doubt tom coughlin remembered that and hired him
overmatched as a DC, though, DB coach may be better for him
Fraught with cronyism, nepotism , re-pay-the-favorism and, besides Ike, Lilly White to boot. Huge problem with this league remains the under-representation of African-American coaches and front-office execs. Washington always had a significant minority participation on their staffs.
Deuce Gruden? You've got to be shitting me. Now we know one of the reasons why Jon was shilling so shamelessly for Snyder to hire his brother. S&C coaches are essentially all the same. Their methodology , training certificates , accessibility to the same studies, renders them a monolith. Nothing distinguishes one from the other. I wrote about that when Palmeri was getting crucified on this board. The Redskins get wiped out with injuries every season. A guy like Marcus Paul had to wait over 10 seasons as an associate S&C . It's a shame .
I will have to disagree with that. IMO, there are many different methods which can lead to different degrees of strength and also methods that can help reduce soft tissue injuries.

He was not a DB coach for buffalo before he joined NYG. He was the DC in Buffalo a few years prior and the interim HC in Buffalo the year before he joined us.

He won a Super Bowl as DC. As always, great players make coaches look good.

Lilly white??
I count 6 black coaches out of 24 on that link which is 25% when AA males only make up 6% of the population in the US. There are also 8 AA head coaches out of the 32 NFL teams which is also 25%.
