Signed by Cowboys Cowboys hire Greg Ellis as assistant DL Coach

[Cowboys5217]

to the year 2000!

 

[NDGAEDE]

This is neat. I always liked Ellis, even with his annual off-season complaints

 

[Risen Star]

He's put on weight nicely.

Intriguing.

 

[noshame]

Get it over with Jerry. Hire Dave Campo back entertainment coach

 

[rags747]

I remember that Greg liked to cry a lot! Anyone else recall that?

 

[bigE79]

Well, well, wellllllllllllll.

I love this. I see that Ellis just started doing some head coaching in some smaller colleges... so this makes sense to me.

Who's next?

Terence, are you soured on coaching, or would you want to give it another shot as an Asst DBs coach in DAL?

What's Dennis Thurman up to?

 

[NDGAEDE]

I remember that Greg liked to cry a lot! Anyone else recall that?

He complained a lot, yeah. He still ended up playing hard. But you could basically count on a new gripe every offseason

Seeing as how Randy wasn't the greatest route runner, I'd say probably not.

Just run that way really fast and then jump!

 

[eromeopolk]

Been there done that. Still want Randy Moss instead of Greg Ellis.

 

[Kingofholland]

Glad to see Greg on the staff!

 

[DanTanna]

So he'll teach our guys to "almost" sake the QB?

 

[75boyz]

Jerry gave Lett a check for a number of years too. I guess it's Ellis's turn now.

Jerry does have a good heart on him for his former players.
I'll give him that.

 

[lostar2009]

Hahaha, Greg wasn't right him the head. They need a crazy guy like him in the fold.

 

[pitt33]

Jerry said we are going all in.

The rest of the league has been put on notice.

If only those hires could block and tackle.

 

[Cowboysheelsreds053]

and just like that, ITS OUR YEAR AGAIN GUYS

Lol, heard that for the last 28 years.

 

[AbeBeta]

So he'll teach our guys to "almost" sake the QB?

Gee, to the more seasoned eye, he'll teach players to always fill their gaps and not freelance to get to the QB.

"Waaa, our run D sucks" -- team hires a guy known for his run D .. "waaa, we need to get to the QB."

 

[ColoradoCowboy]

So he'll teach our guys to "almost" sake the QB?

You are thinking of "Almost" Anthony Spencer.

 

[Sarge]

He was really serious about going all in.

 

[RustyBourneHorse]

Now I likey this. I actually threw Gregs name out there a couple days ago as a dine line coach. I cant believe they actually did it. Great move.

That, and he was a bright spot during our 5-11 years. Plus, I remember him signing an autograph for me when I watched my first live Cowboys game against the Panthers in 2002. I'm happy with this hire.

wow, thats very cool stuff. He seems like a great human being too. Grounded. He was always steady eddie and played a good while in the NFL. He never gets the love he deserves. His stats are crazy good.Good solid draft pick.
