His father was an awesome guy. I’m sure Ryan is too. Love seeing Landon getting swept out.

As Calvin Griffith said "I don't know what nepotism means".
I’m not sure it can be nepotism when the previous generation is deceased.
I think he started as a video coordinator or something, so it’s not like he was given a head coaching job out of the shoot. Names matter in almost everything. He has a recognized name. Probably has something going for him if he’s on a championship staff.
