several tidbits
Clyde may end up calling plays as he knows all the terminology and style Gase wants to use
Gase was also thrilled to get Vance Joseph and Matt Burke on staff. Stated those were his top 2 targets in terms of assistants. Was nervous though Hue may take Vance.

First person he spoke to after getting the job was Dan Campbell.

“I feel pretty good about what we can do with him,” Gase said on the Joe Rose Show, 560-WQAM. “I feel like we can help him.
“It was going upward from the time he started. I know last year was a hiccup and I know he was disappointed in last year and obviously every Dolphin fan was frustrated with the situation that occurred. We feel really good with the staff we’re putting together, how we’re going to build this thing offensively. I feel like we can help with the sacks, we can eliminate some of these hits he’s taken. That’s going to be key.”

“I’ll be leaning toward offense early but the great thing about bringing Clyde in is it’s somebody that has been in this offense before,” Gase said. “I really stole it from them and Indianapolis. So him walking in, the terminologies are as close as it can get to what they had in Indianapolis. He’s going to be able to set this thing up pretty good where I’m going to be able to make sure I’m doing my job as a head coach but at the same time I’m going to be able to have my imprint on the offense, be able to call the game, be prepared for the game.
“I feel like we kind of mapped this thing out. I feel real comfortable being able to have my hands a little bit on defense and special teams, let those guys do the job but obviously know what’s going on.”

“They kind of came with that to me and we kind of discussed it and I was like ‘Hey we’re doing this thing together,'” Gase said. “And we talked about it. I got the so-called final say on that but I envision being able to do it together with those guys and I know the players they look at it different when the head coach is making that decision. They know where the final say is coming from.”
