Twitter: Cowboys to name Doug Nussmeier TE Coach

[Risen Star]

The Cowboys are expected to name Doug Nussmeier as tight ends coach, according to sources. Nussmeier was the offensive coordinator at Florida last season. He has also been the offensive coordinator at Michigan and Alabama. He had a five-year NFL career as a backup quarterback with the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts. He was the quarterbacks coach for the St. Louis Rams for two seasons when offensive coordinator Scott Linehan was head coach. Like Linehan, he played collegiately at Idaho.

Another coach with QB coach experience.

Nussmeier was Linehan's QB at U of Idaho when Linehan was offensive coordinator there in 1990s

Hope he can develop te's as the witten era comes to a close.

Decent hire. I like this and Kris Richard. The rest are suspect.

 

[Carson]

Go Cowboys

He completely sucked as Florida's OC for the last 3 years.

That didn't take long.

Well...Guess Linehan had better turn things around because he should not have any excuses other than injuries.

He actually gained more of his guys this offseason.

Yhis should be a good fit.

Coached with Linehan?

Welcome.

 

[CWR]

Yes!

This sums it up well. While I don't know why, they've decided to go "all in" with Linehan. And this is another one of his guys hired.

Like you said, "no excuses".

 

[Silver N Blue]

Wow this far in and ....Championship

 

[kiheikiwi]

Well OK then.
No idea if good or bad, just glad they made a decision. Linehan looks like the big "winner" this off-season. Moore and Nussmeier are his guys. Hmmm

Maybe he will screw up witten so bad that they cut witten and make a good deal of the forum happy.
