Brown and Tenuta.

My theory and I have seen bits and pieces of it throughout a few other posts.

First and foremost this probably means Weis is gonna coach from the booth this season and Brown will be the field coach. While giving Tenuta control of the Defense with Brown able to mix in while keeping a hand on the pulse of the entire team on the field. Smart move IMO if all the coaches involved are on board.

Secondly, I think it means that Weis expects Brown to be hired after this upcoming season as a HC. Provided the season plays out at decent expectations I think that makes Brown a hot commodity and deservedly so, IMO.

Lastly, and this may be the only point that doesn't make you say, "no shit, Sherlock", is that Tenuta likes ND, wants to stay, and realizes that he is a DC not HC material. Outside of the NFL calling or a fallout with Weis it would not surprise me to see Tenuta here for quite some time provided Weis gets this thing turned around this year.
