Dan Campbell: High-Energy Interview With Brian Daboll

On Wednesday Brian Daboll told reporters about a “chair-throwing” Dan Campbell interview from 2011. Daboll interviewed Campbell for a coaching position with the Dolphins.

Why it matters: Dan Campbell was looking for a job as the Maimi Dolphins‘ tight end coach and Tony Sparano (Dolphins’ then head-coach) asked Brain Daboll (2011 offensive coordinator) to interview him. Here’s what he had to say:

“So I interviewed Dan, and it was a great interview,” Daboll told reporters this week. “He’s slamming chairs on the ground and hitting walls and going through all these drills. You guys know him, he’s a fantastic person, great family. It was an entertaining interview. (He) knew a lot. Obviously, he was very passionate, tough as nails. You could tell he was out of breath in half that interview with the stuff he was doing.”

After being asked by reporters about the working relationship he had with Brain Daboll, Campbell said he was “fun to work with”

“From the time that I’ve worked with him, he was always, man, I always was real impressed with him,” Campbell said. “He’s very smart, high energy, he’s got a real good personality about him. He can mesh with just about anybody. And man, he was fun to work with. I mean, he really was.”
