Serious Question: Is Mark D'Onofrio Good For Anything?

He was responsible for bringing in Moten. Besides that, mostly just mumbling interviews.

All the coaches who we have qualms with seem to at least be good at something:

-Golden is a solid recruiter and a very good speaker.
-Jethro is well liked by parents and by all accounts a very nice guy who players like too.
-Kehoe has put tons of guys in the NFL and is well respected in the coaching community.

And then there's D'Onofrio.
I honestly don't know if he has any positive qualities.

He can't run a defense, is not very liked by most of the players per multiple reports, has alienated local HS coaches and has never pulled a big recruit. He also seems to be a huge jerk.

Is there anything he is good at? Anything?

Answer the question...
 
Without a doubt, D'Buttsquirt has enabled us to watch Miami football much better. In the past, things would happen so quickly that you often had to watch replay to fully appreciate what just happened.

So we can thank D'Buttsquirt for having our Dlinemen hesitate and play pattycake with the opposing Olinemen. That two-gap is really working well, as we don't have to struggle to see our Dlinemen rushing the QB, and getting all confused as they swim, spin, or otherwise try to get in the QB's face.

D'Buttsquirt's defensive scheme has provided a much more competitive game. Unlike other teams, our LB's have to cover receivers for a full twenty seconds since we have no pass rush through the gaps. Makes it much easier to watch opposing QB's look, twitch, get another grip on the ball, take their time checking their receivers, then get their feet planted before making completions all over the middle of the field.

Just makes watching Miami football so much easier to watch.

Plus, we get a much better look at D'Buttsquirt's defense, as they are on the field all game long. It's just great. In days past, our defenses would make stops, and were off the field before you got to really see them play that much.

Let's face it. D'Buttsquirt has completely redefined how we are able to watch Miami football.

If Golden's statements this week are true (start the used car salesman rant) D'O will be putting in a more aggressive scheme to match the talent.
I choose to believe him and expect a much better result. If not, he gone.

I'm not sure you read enough of what Golden said.

We're pretty much going to see the same defense - continuity.

Golden still don't get it.
