Nestucca Duck    No. 1 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Can anybody tell me why the strength and conditioning coordinator is always in such close proximity to Coach Cristoball during the game? I suspect he likes seeing himself on TV...just curious.   Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckman    No. 2 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Yeah. I don't remember seeing such an animated strength and conditioning coach on game days before. Also, I think it's weird that it's mostly coaches that are responsible for bringing energy on the sidelines. I think that should ideally come from the players. Remember Joey Harrington? Or, more recently, Troy Dye? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Joseph   Moderator  No. 3 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Interesting. As was Saban not bringing Feld back to Bama when the S+C Tide coach moved on to Georgia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimpleDucks    No. 4 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Mario has had trouble staying off the field during play and UO has had sideline warnings in earlier games.  I don't know if this happens all the time, but I've seen Feld stay close enough to pull him off the field when he looks like he's going to go batshizz crazy. 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Fischer   Administrator  No. 6 Share Posted October 18, 2021 Interesting question--no idea, but I do recall Jimmy Rad on the sidelines at every game. Next to the coaches? I do not recall that...  Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in the game against Ohio State Feld also corralled some players on the sideline who had gone down to either celebrate with the Duck fans (or maybe taunt OSU fans, not sure).

Haywarduck   Moderator  No. 9 Share Posted October 19, 2021 It does seem he has taken the roll of bouncer, sideline controller for the Oregon players and coaches. I would imagine this is an assigned role, but don't know for sure. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw777b    No. 10 Share Posted October 19, 2021 I saw a great interview with him a few years ago. He seems like a great guy. He's definitely responsible for keeping the sideline in line. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feld is what is called a "belt coach" where part of his job is to keep the HC off the field.  There are quite a few pictures of him pulling MC back.  Lots of coaches use their strength.coaches in that way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
