David Gibbs is leaving UH and is looking for a new opportunity: LINK

Any chance LSU is interested? I don't know much about Gibbs, but could he be a dark horse? candidate?

Would much prefer him over Stoops, Steele, or Brick.

Houston had winning records over the last couple of seasons because of its defense--that's never happened before. It's been a decade since he was at Auburn, so he's gained some seasoning.

this is an interesting development... not many coaches just leave a job without something lined up

well, didn't UH just hire a new HC? I think it is the Ohio State OC, right?

Was a good DC for Auburn but that was before spread/high octane offenses dominated cfb.

Our defense sucked in 2005?

From what I remember, Tubs had to take over and asked him to GTFO after the season.

Tubs had a lot of attrition from assistants who weren't part of the BBQ Gang. I don't know any details of why his assistants left esp David Gibbs.

UH has already hired Todd Orlando the DC at Utah State as Gibbs replacement.

UH supposedly offered more money than Tech. But the Utah State guy looks solid.
