MVFC: USD's Matt Vitzthum confirms chip on Coyotes' shoulder, updates QB race & marvels about DT Chris Dixon

from Happy Hour with John Gaskins · host John Gaskins

Being a college football coach can be all-consuming and time-absorbing. In their scant down times, different coaches find different ways to get away from it all. For USD's first year head coach Matt Vitzthum, one of his comfort outlets was a dark and raunchy comedy show from the late 2010's. Hint: The main character on the show about a baseball announcer had a signature sport jacket that looked a lot like Vitzthum's red-and-black plaid blazer at MVFC Media Day. There's more to this conversation than random situation comedies that Netflix, sadly, only makes available some of the time. Yeah, there's the only football program in the FCS that has reached the quarterfinals three years in a row, but has it's third coach in three years and three quarterbacks vying to fill the mammoth shoes of Aidan Bouman. There's a defense that was sneaky good last year, especially during the Coyotes' four-game winning streak to finish the regular season and clinch a playoff berth, not to mention sole second place in the MVFC... and that defense has at least one sneaky great player Vitz loves talking about. Yeah, you'll hear about that stuff, too. But you'll get to know the new boss a little better.
