Regardless I’m happy to have the guy with the staff, amazing character. Surprised he took a full time role so soon, thought he would take a little more time off first.
The term right hand man brings up one of two guys from the previous regime, either Berj or Ernie. Either one seems like a great place for Slater to start out as a coach. I think this gives him a chance to start coaching without putting him on a track as just a STs coach. I just like the idea of him on our staff.What is the actual job title though?

Agree. He's there to help players be better people and better professionals... before he goes to another franchise and turns into Lady Macbeth.Easterby
Ernie never could play so he was on the coaching/research/strategy side full-time from the start. He was 50 when he was brought in by BB to do his part in Dynasty 1.The term right hand man brings up one of two guys from the previous regime, either Berj or Ernie.

Vrable could have. I can’t think of anyone else.Ernie never could play so he was on the coaching/research/strategy side full-time from the start. He was 50 when he was brought in by BB to do his part in Dynasty 1.
Can't think that any player (especially one who didn't play offense or defense) can retire at 40 and be what Ernie was. Not saying Slater can't/won't contribute, just that the Ernie comparison might not be the best.
