Barry had the title of Assistant Head Coach.

Wonder if that title is now added to a young position coach to help retain him. Pleasant, Evero or Henderson could be candidates.
 
Seems like a lateral move, makes me wonder why he would take it.
 
who cares....

Think its the DC thing, he's not going to be one here. He has been passed over several times now and can learn this defense inside and out from Staley. Not a bad move on his part honestly.

Granted, he hasn't had the the blue chip players to work with, but other than Littleton, who did he really coach up?

Yes, but having coordinator and the fact of learning from Staley might have been the reason. I'm not upset about it because McVay can add the supervisory tag to Pleasant or Henderson and most likely make Chris Shula the linebacker coach instead of outside linebacker coach.

Plus out of all the Assistants the Rams could lose, like @NJRamsFan I'm fine with this.
 
I'm thinking McVay had a talk after the O'Connell sitch and gave him a couple of names he could take. Barry going before they hired a DC concerns me though. Where Barry could have been blocked, they could still lose Pleasant, Henderson or Evero to the DC

I'm not particularly knowledgeable on who should be the next lb coach, but please get him or her some talent at the LB position.
