Watch Out USC Pro Day, Chiefs Krumrie is Coming to Town

I like that he works out in jeans Wait, are those jeans?

via latimesblogs.latimes.com

USC is holding their Pro Day tomorrow and it figures to be another big event. It may not receive as much attention as last year's, which USA Today dubbed the top workout in the country, but maybe they're fine with less attention this year.

Mainly because the attention last year was on Pete Carroll's outrage at a hand-to-hand combat drill Kansas City Chiefs coach Tim Krumrie conducted with defensive tackle Sedrick Ellis.

The drill, pictured above, didn't sit well with Carroll:

The other Pro Day eye-opener was a hand-to-hand combat drill in which players engaged a former-NFL-player-turned-coach (pictured above). Carroll apparently wasn't happy with it and reportedly told the media, "That won't happen again here."

Ellis said "that drill's a doozy".  Other NFL coaches around the league reportedly scoffed at the notion that Krumrie's workout has any value at all.  Plus, it tires a player out in the middle of a workout which could jeopardize how they perform the entire day.

If you're not familiar with Tim Krumrie, then you probably haven't been hanging around here long enough.  He's the team's defensive line coach and, judging by a quick search of the site, not the most popular guy.  Todd Haley surprisingly (to us) kept him on board.

The Chiefs spoke with Fili Moala, USC defensive tackle, at the NFL Combine.

He has just a hint of "bitch" in his face...

What a baby. Krum is just a tough old bastard and obviously doesn’t track well with prissy boy coaches like carroll..

If Krumrie Tries That Stupid Drill Again

I hope one of the prospects punches him straight in the nose.

Predictions for 2009

1. Todd Haley's going to struggle with managing his staff in his rookie year as head coach.
2. The Lions will draft Matt Stafford, the Rams will draft Jason Smith, and the Chiefs will draft either Aaron Curry or Eugene Monroe.
3. Maurice Carthon will be the most hated man on the Chiefs' coaching staff within two years.

If Fili Moala Does That

I hope the Chiefs draft him in the 3rd round.

I Would Give Him Sufficient Props To Bump Him Up If He Jacked Krumrie

We need a little anger on that front line. :)

I think Krumrie also judges vegetables ripeness when shopping by throwing them at the ground.

It has about the same worth as a means of measure as his bitch slap drill.

If his drill is such a great barometer, why does our entire D Line of first day draft picks suck complete ass?

Good Question

I’m sure Krumrie would say that it’s because they lack heart and just need to be screamed at some more.

Yes. :)

Screamed at and then shuffled around the line more.

He sucks...

I have said it before. Krumrie should have been fired after the performance from our D-line last year. This guy has all but ruined the careers of a bunch of very talented players on our line. Tank, Turk, Glen, just need to beat the shit out of him and tell him to fuck off.
He will be the downfall of Haley.

I think Krumrie

will probably be fired. He was certainly on my axe list for this offseason given the abysmal performance of a heap of first round talent on the DL. However, what he lacks in coaching might be mitigated (to some degree) by his talent appraising and his ability to motivate. I think Pioli was wavering on whether or he should keep his job and decided to let him ride it out one more year. The position is his to lose.

One thing that may have persuaded Pioli to let him stay is the fact that another coach he used to know would perform a similar and seemingly equally bizarre drill. As head coach of the Browns, he would reportedly have a player punch him in the chest.

Krummrie was our only option as D line coach

what D line coach would want to work for a D line on a 2-14 team that just turned in the worst sacking campaign in history

Time is a great teacher... unfortunately it kills all it's pupils.

I seriously am questioning the retainment of Krumrie

I’ve seen him do these type of drills before under Herm. I just DO NOT understand any benefit of having him around except for his attitude, which fits in with Haley’s/Pioli’s style. Having said that, I just don’t see how he can make the line better with his coaching knowledge (or lack thereof).

I agree

All that handjacking sure didn’t help get any penetration off the line.

You And Me Both, Brother

Keeping Krumrie makes me seriously question Haley’s judgment.

Predictions for 2009

1. Todd Haley's going to struggle with managing his staff in his rookie year as head coach.
2. The Lions will draft Matt Stafford, the Rams will draft Jason Smith, and the Chiefs will draft either Aaron Curry or Eugene Monroe.
3. Maurice Carthon will be the most hated man on the Chiefs' coaching staff within two years.

as I said above

what D line coach would want to work for a D line on a 2-14 team that just turned in the worst sacking campaign in history… Not to mention we had the worst run defense in the league last year

One That Thought He Could Turn It Around

With a supportive GM, owner, and head coach.

Although I’m thinking the more relevant question would be, what good d-line coach would want to come work for a horrible d-line under a defensive coordinator (Gibbs or Pendergast) who isn’t very good? It’s one thing to work with a bad line and try to turn them around…it’s another when you’ve got a boss who may hinder your efforts.

3. Maurice Carthon will be the most hated man on the Chiefs' coaching staff within two years.

Does anybody know where to find the video?

I’ve searched around on Google and YouTube, but I can’t find it. I found one, but it’s crap and practiced at slow speed.

Im going against the grain here~

AND saying that I AM GLAD that they kept Krummy~ I think that Coach Haley wouldnt of kept him around IF he didnt think he was a good choice to be the DL coach~

that being said~ ITS A CLEAN SLATE for everyone, and having KRUMMY piss off college coaches, is plain FUNNY! That look on his face is like OMG YOU ATE MY SANDWICH look~

One thing I dont understand is * WHY WOULD IT TIRE A PLAYER OUT by DOING THIS DRILL WITH KRUMMY? * If it tires him out the WHOLE DAY like they say~ THEN actually I DONT WANT that player, HE’s TIRED? and we got 3 quarters to go!~

NO TY

Ol' Kansan' Chief
