Marvlevydraftdaygenius Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I was never impressed with him, his defensive lines would get blown off the ball defending the run, his defensive line would go games without generating a sack. When you play Leslie Frazier's, 19th century cover two you need an attacking defensive line that attacks the line of scrimmage. I hope Buffalo can find a good defensive line coach with an attacking style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 He might feel like his hands are tied here with the HC and DC being heavily involved in every aspect of this defense. His contributions could be easily overlooked/overshadowed. He might have a issue with McD or Frazier, who knows but it is very strange to go from the NFL to college.

MrEpsYtown Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I am available! But seriously, I'm guessing they pursue Eric Washington. He was the D line coach under Sean McDermott in Carolina, got promoted to DC and did a pretty terrible job under Rivera. So a really good DL coach who was a bit in over his head as a DC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best guess is the Bills told him to look elsewhere. I misread the title I thought it was for the HC position. Weird as thought the D-line play outside of that blip in run defense in the middle of the season had been mostly good. But maybe internally there were issues or this was a personal issue with Teerlinck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Linen Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I wonder if he got the sense or knew they weren't happy with his performance. I get the coaching with an old friend part but seems it would be better for your career to be attached with one of the best defenses in the entire NFL.

Could be wanting his kids to grow up in a small town....maybe he's sick of the Buffalo winters.....maybe he's tired of dealing with the NFL egos.

JoeF Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 VT replaced long-time DC Bud Foster with a 37 year old Justin Hamilton. Hamilton is a former Hokie player who has been back in the program for two years - the past year as safeties coach. Just thinking that Coach Fuente wanted some added experience in the D coaching room. It also helps that Teerlink has the trust factor of working with Fuente in the past. Additionally, I would imagine Hamilton is making a lot less than Foster (who was one of the highest paid assistants in College Football) so there was money to throw around to attract some high caliber coaches for the D Staff to help a young coordinator. All factors I would guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BADOLBILZ Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I ain't mad he's leaving.
