It is not my intention to do away with government. It is rather to make it work - work with us, not over us; stand by our side, not ride on our back. Government can and must provide opportunity, not smother it; foster productivity, not stifle it. ~Ronald Reagan

That would be an amazing hire, but I don't think he'd settle for BG. He'll hold out for a top level college job.

The guy was an absolute disaster with the Browns, but he's a great college coach.

This is why your arguments get shot down so quickly.

"Beckman came to Ohio State from Bowling Green, where he spent seven years, including six as defensive coordinator and two as the assistant head coach.

While at Bowling Green, Beckman was a three-time nominee for the Frank Broyles Assistant Coach of the Year Award. He was a finalist for that honor in 2001, when the Falcons led the Mid-American Conference in total defense, scoring defense, rushing defense, turnovers gained and scoring margin."

My arguments get dismissed so quickly because a coach was nominated for something and he never won it?

How many people here were happy Beckman was replaced? Our Defense has gotten much better under Lovett. Much.

If I remember correctly when he left there were many people that said good riddens.

If he was so good why did he move to coach Corners at OSU. They needed a DC right around the time he left.

OSU did not need a DC when he left, they needed a coach for the corners. When the previous DC retired, they moved up one of the coaches already on their roster. Backman had an opportunity to move up to a BCS program and took advantage of it. He knew Tressel from his early days in Berea (Tressels' father and Beckmans' father were both coaches at Baldwin-Wallace).
