Thought that too, but it seems the trend is toward young up and coming coaches. Son could always consult with dad, just like Mayur consults with Tomey

He needs to consult more because besides blocked kicks, our ST are pretty bad. Even you have pointed it out (punt returns). So consulting is not the same as having the experience especially with in game adjustments.
