Tech officially hires Fitch

[Moose Stuff]

Best of luck to Big Z!

 

[Frogs1983]

Wish him the best, just not against TCU.

 

[Opintel]

I do not like that. He was one of my favorites, this is not good.

I know I'm not privy to all the information...but, you can't make me like it!

 

[FrogCop19]

Agreed. But at least he won't have our signals.

 

[AroundWorldFrog]

Seems to be a great guy and the kids like him. But look at the performance of our DL over the last 4-5 years. Not great.

Good luck.

 

[Wexahu]

I’m sure opposing QBs are terrified.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but his unit has been in decline the last few years. New DL coach coming over from SMU is widely considered to be one of the rising young defensive coaches in the game.

 

[Prince of Purpoole II]

Glad he found a spot. ZF is a genuinely good human

 

[HFrog1999]

Good for him. I wish him the best and hope he does well.

I hope that rise is drastic because SMU's defense was 87th in the FBS this year.

That complement can’t be said enough about people like fitch, Just a genuinely nice person. You know when you meet one of those people, where it seems weird they don’t have any noticeable ego or malice. That was my impression of him the few times I was around him.

Yeah…. he just coached ONE position group and he’s the only coach on that side of the ball joining the staff.

the good news is smu allowed only 3.7 yards per rush attempt, putting them in the upper 3rd of the FBS.

 

[neutral observer]

Wish him the best! One of my favorite coaches!

 

[More Frogs the Better]

the good news is smu allowed only 3.7 yards per rush attempt, putting them in the upper 3rd of the FBS.

Their problems were much more on the back end. A stubborn old school DC trying to play a scheme he didn’t have the personnel to run. I think we got a huge upgrade on the DL.

 

[JugbandFrog]

At least we know that their DEs won't know how to contain and their rushers won't maintain their rush lanes.

 

[Eight]

I hope that rise is drastic because SMU's defense was 87th in the FBS this year.

which is significantly better than tcu's defense last year so guess the frogs have traded up based upon that logic

 

[Sebastian S]

Good for him.

He got a P5 job and from the same conference

His unit hasn't been performing, so good for him to get another chance

 

[asleep003]

Congrats Fitch !!!!!

 

[GenXFrog]

Congrats to Fitch!

I really hope it works out better for both parties than the last time TTU hired a TCU defensive coach.
