more from Jalen Ramsey on Raheem Morris.
“I’ve had great coaches, honestly. I mean, since the time I was traded here to LA couple years ago, I was with the legendary Coach Wade. And then I got to be with Coach Staley, who obviously I think very highly of, and he did a great job and he helped me a lot. And he opened up my game to where I was able to showcase my skill set even more just by different positions and coverages that I was able to play while he was here and he got his opportunity to go be a head coach,” Ramsey said. “And I personally think he did a good job. And then when ‘Rah’ got here this year, he kind of just took that and went to another level with it. And not only personally allowed me to play multiple positions and be effective all around the game, but like the way he taught me the game, the way he breaks down film, things like that he’s done with me personally that’s like improved my game like more than I could ever, ever honestly think about. And then not only that, just the leader he is like really, really the leader he is – how he coaches all of his guys, knows all of his guys, not just like he doesn’t treat us all the same, but he treats us all fairly if that makes sense. Like he knows how to treat different people, how they need to be treated. He’s honestly – I could probably go on and on, on about coach ‘Rah,’ but he’s like genuinely one of the best leaders I’ve ever been around in my professional career, for sure, but just in general me forever playing football. He’s one of the best leaders and the way he challenges guys and brings the best out of them. It’s something that’s honestly special and that’s something that any of these vacancies out here. If they could get a guy like him, they in good hands, they in a good position.
except they did to him what Red McCombs did to Mike Tice. Got him because he was young, naive and not smart enough to say no. I'll repeat, he'd never even been a coordinator when they gave him the Bucs job he was the secondary coach. Then, like McCombs, they slashed the payroll on the field and off. Gave him subpar tools to succeed and nothing to back him up.
However, unlike Tice, he didn't just throw his hands up and say screw it. He worked to become a better coach.
