Report: Packers hiring Steve Marshall as assistant offensive line coach http://wp.me/p14QSB-9teZ

Was at New Mexico State.


The 57-year-old Marshall was the Texans’ offensive line coach in 2004 and 2005 and the Browns’ offensive line coach in 2007 and 2008. He was also the Texans’ assistant offensive line coach from 2002 and 2003.

Marshall was added to New Mexico State’s coaching staff in January. Previously, he was Colorado’s offensive coach 2011 and 2012.

Well he did a fine job with David Bakhtiari while he was at Colorado, wonder if that had any influence on the hire.

[Patler]

He has had a rather strange coaching career:

1980-1981 Tennessee: Assistant OL
1982-1983 Marshall: OL/ST
1984 Louisville: TE/OL
1985-1986 Murray State: OC/OL
1987 Virginia Tech: OL
1988-1992 Virginia Tech: OC
1993 Tennessee: OL
1994-1995 Tennessee: OL/Run Game Coordinator

1997 Texas A&M: OC/OL

Why would a guy have so many different jobs? Changes jobs every year or two.

I think a good number of those jobs were for coaches who got canned. Might be bad karma for Stubby!

I had the same thought. I wonder if he is a fix it guy who gets there too late? Wonder if Dom/Texans connections recommended him?

[Fritz]

What a lousy life. Look at that resume. Move to somewhere new every couple years, to glamorous places like Cleveland and Louisville. Bet he knows how to pack a cardboard box!

I bet he doesn't spend much time with his family

[Fritz]

So when he announces after the year that he's stepping down to spend more time with his family, after not having done so for thirty years, we'll know there really is something rotten in the assistant coaching offices in Green Bay - and it's not just jock rot.

[Just Jeff]

The only thing that could make that resume worse would be a stint in the pokie.

Yeah, that is a little bizarre. Looked like his career was on the final arc, out a year and then NM State. N Mex State is for young guys on the way up or old guys on the way out. He takes that gig in Jan and gets the Pack in April?

It's like he won the lottery.

[Fritz]

KY, does your ST coaching resume look like that?

[red]

so is it a good thing or a bad thing that he gets a new job every year or two?

It would be good if he was moving up. But he's bouncing around like a sine wave.

at least a since wave is consistent. Still, he's clearly more like a cosine wave.
