So, a couple questions:
1. Does Duval want Boyd around his football players?
2. If the answer is no, can he actually say "no" without making the TC posse angry?
3. If Boyd is allowed to stay in order to help with non-football athletes, can he stay in his lane?
4. Does Boyd have any advantage anymore over the new generation of S&C coaches?
Seems to me, Duval needs to be able to say "yes" or "no" without having to feel he has to appease anyone. Can Boyd be around S&C and not meddle into football if that's Duval's wish?
I've heard both sides of the story. I know for a fact certain individuals most certainly did not want him around because they felt he was looking over shoulders and, while his experience is fantastic, his knowledge of modern technique isn't what it once was. I've heard that other certain individuals felt honored to have him assist and felt his ideas were better than not-to-be-named prior coach.

It would be foolish not to use the expertise of the man who made S/C a major part of college sports. Duvall should be a deciple of Boyd E.
Boyd pinned Zach for the job a few years ago when he came back, but was overruled last minute by MR for Philip.
While I would have loved for that homecoming to have happened then, I'm glad we didn't get Zach at that time as we may not have the change to have him and Frost now.
But to answer the question, Boyd and Zach are extremely close

NO, this is something new entirely. And for evidence, I present this.....
This thread does kinda have a "Stength" to it.....
for the record i wasn't trying to be a jerk to the OP and if it came across that i was i've got no problem apologizing.
it seems like anytime the S&C program comes up Epley's name is brought up like he's going to come in with all the answers. he was ahead of his time when he was here, but the rest of the country has caught up. the top 40 programs in the nation all have facilities that are on par with each other. from nutrition to sports psychology to lifting to data analysis....we aren't ahead like we used to and bringing back boyd epley isn't going to magically elevate our S&C above everyone else in the country.
we don't need Boyd Epley. we need the NEXT boyd epley. Hopefully Duvall is that guy.
here's 15 pages about the disfunction of the S&C Program

He is, Duvall is a man that learned under the best...he is not like the new guys who don't push their atheletes to maximum performance. He knows that the old ways--mainly hard work--are best. Nutrition is probably the biggest improvement in recent years, if you can get your guys to follow up...and, because he is a kick-arse old school guy, he can get them to do the work.

Would you ask the builders of the original IBM about the new notebooks? Would you tap into Henry Ford for ideas on car designs? It may not be that extreme, but methods do change, even in hoisting chunks of metal around.
Silliness. Lifts do not change nor does good technique. Modern "changes" revolve around computerization of routines and measurement of progress and newer equipment. Nutrition and lifestyle also impact S&C greatly, so there have been advances in these areas, but when you get right down to it, HARD WORK in the weight room can't be replaced by any computerized program or even by nutritional improvements.
Try to make a better mousetrap. The old ones work fine. This is not computer science or even automotive technology.

That is too simplistic. We did squats in high school but that didn't mean my high school coach knew the best way to utilize the squat rack to make me a better football player. Like I alluded to before, we have no way of knowing whether Boyd has kept up with modern S&C/nutrition. Duval may be utilizing techniques and approaches that Boyd has never learned. Just because Boyd was once the greatest strength coach on planet Earth, does not mean he still is. If he is, and Duval is happy having him around, then great. But we don't need ignorant HuskerNation get all pissy because Boyd is not working with the football team if, as possible, he's not up to the task.

I meant it doesn't matter whether you "care to know" the TC rules. You only get to know them if the TC cares to share them with you.To me it does. And, really, that's all that matters.
