I am trying to reserve myself to only positive thinking, but I am not sure I am on board with this signing either. We have unlimited resources to get top of the line coaches, and we are settling for bottom of the barrel.
Smith was an RB coach at Miami University (that's Ohio), he was also tight end and RB coach at university of illinios, he then became the RB coach for the Titans in 1995, and wasn't promoted until 2006 as assistant head coach offense of an offense that has sucked the past couple years.
I don't know man...I am not at all happy with our coaches right now...I am so hoping this works out, just unsure of how wise these hirings are.

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington! I think Sherman Smith is a great hire. He knows the offense inside and out, and will take a load off of Coach Zorn so that he can focus on quarterback coaching. He's an excellent teacher, and will be Coach Zorn's proxy in transmitting to the players the West Coach offense, and will be a great help in designing plays as well I'm sure.

I can tell he's a good man from everything I've seen, and will be a positive and balancing influence on the players as the coaching adminstration transition period goes along and the players learn a new offense.

Not every coach we hire can already be in the Hall of Fame. It's about talent, it's about fitting into a situation, being the right piece of the puzzle. This is the right place for Coach Smith and I'm glad he's on board.
