Boone on Jim Tomsula (95.7FM): "It’s his personality that makes everybody likes him. But it’s his knowledge that makes everybody loves him.”

What Current 49ers Have Said about Coach Jim Tomsula

No introductions will be needed when the new San Francisco 49ers head coach meets with his players for the first time in the coming weeks.

Jim Tomsula, the team's defensive line coach since 2007, already has an established relationship with most, if not all, of the men on the current roster.

Here's a collection of quotes from 49ers players over the years on the new leading man in San Francisco.

DT Justin Smith

"He will make a great head coach. Number one, he knows what the heck he’s talking about and, number two, he has the personality to go with it. A lot of times those don’t always match up.

"He's a fiery guy. He's not just a rah-rah guy, there's a lot more to him than that. He knows his stuff so you don't have to yell and just jump around all the time. You can actually talk. He'll give us some information, some input, how we're going to shut it down and that's what I appreciate about him."

LB Patrick Willis

"The job he’s done with the defensive line, as far as the techniques that they play with, has helped me a lot. People ask me how I’m able to do what I do and it’s because of the defensive line. They allow me to be free and make plays. He’s one of the best defensive line coaches I’ve been around."

NT Glenn Dorsey

"He’s a hard-working, blue-collar guy and a lot of guys in the locker room can relate to him. He knows how to put football stuff in life terms that you can understand. He brings a lot of enthusiasm to the game, and a lot of wisdom. He works well with us and we respond well.

"He’d make a great head coach. He’s just a tremendous coach, and he’s helped me a lot, on and off the field."

LB Aaron Lynch

"Tomsula is amazing. Even though he's on my tail, I get a lot of real positives from him. That's the great thing about it. He's not here to baby me; he's here to make me the best that I can be. He knows how to do it, too."
NT Quinton Dial
"He's helped me out a lot as well. He's helped me go into my playbook and making sure I'm sharp in everything I'm doing. You need to be prepared to play the game. He's hard on me, to keep me on my toes, keep me going and keep me working hard."

NT Ian Williams

"I’m blessed to be with the coaches I’ve had like Jimmy T. I've learned so much, too much to talk about, a lot more about life with Jimmy T, and more about the fundamentals and having more confidence in myself."

DT Tony Jerod-Eddie

"He can get intense. My first year was pretty rough to say the least. But as I’ve gotten older and more mature football-wise, he’s backed off. But he can still get intense at times; he does a good job. Jimmy is on you about everything little thing. Now I appreciate him for it because I’ve come a long way."

DL Lawrence Okoye

"Jim was the complete, 100-percent reason I chose to come here. He instilled so much faith in me. When I met him, he made that clear to me in a way that other coaches and other personnel people hadn't. And I'm 100 percent committed to Jim, and I'm going to make sure that I prove him right."

S L.J. McCray

"He kept telling me, ‘Keep doing what you’re doing. Keep working hard and keep shining and they’ll notice you.’ He gave me a lot of encouragement."

If I could keep only one assistant it would be Tom Rathman. 

 

[Los Angeles]

@red80 what do u see in trestman

 

[red80]

 I think Trestman is a great teacher and coordinator, and the fact that he is a student of Bill's is a plus. He did a damn good job when he was with us with Steve Young and in Oakland with  Rich Gannon. Trestman is like Norv Turner: Good OC, bad head coach. He's an eccentric dude, but his football acuity is real.

Head coaches are leaders of men, managers of egos and I dont think that was Trestman's strength.

To repeat what Damon was saying......

If Tomsula is so well loved, shouldnt the assistant coaches want to stick around and coach with him? Isn't it kind of telling that none of them are staying?

 

[red80]

 Sounds to me like they're being relieved of duty. I know you know it's standard procedure for the new head coach to bring in his guys.



I wouldn't worry about what Damon has to say. Dude doesn't know **** about football lol. none of the dudes on the radio besides Greg Papa and John Middelkauf do. 


Doesn't sound like Tomsula will have trouble finding coaches.

Tomsula is one of the most respected coaches in NFL. He will be quite popular with asst coaches looking for work at Senior Bowl next week.

It's a personal move from the top.

Tomsula > Fangio as a Head Coach.

Congrats Jim Tomsula for being the next head coach of the @49ers . One hell of a coach that has an exceptional way of teaching. #NinerPride

Extremely happy for Jimmy T! Can't wait to get back at it!

the amount of players that love this goomba is crazy...

 

[wooster]

Just playing devil's advocate - but for such a savvy and popular coach, why was he a D-line coach for so long and didnt get promoted either within or gone elsewhere?

 

[lb510]

At the end of the day the question marks or offense were still going to be unanswered, lets wait until after the draft to see what the team really looks like. I really want to hear what his plans are for the offense... Still can't believe they didn't interview him.

As far as all the assistants leaving, yes its typical that the new coach hire new staff. in the case of Vic clearly he has hurt feelings as far as being passed up not sure I would have wanted a coach with that type of attitude as are HC. Sad to see him go but this may work out for the best if Vic really feels "he's the man"

Who knows.  Everyone has to start somewhere. Look at John Harbaugh. Dude had only been a freaken special teams coach before his ascend to head coach. Nobody questioning that move in retrospect.

He was an interim at one point

They mustve had some backdoor deal, where they just held him in the pocket until it was his time

Do you guys really believe that the niners interviewed 9 people and didnt interview Tomsula? thats foolish. Of course they interviewed him, agents leak that **** about interviews... not the niners FO
