"Chavis has been criticized for his use of the Mustang defensive package. Tennessee defensive backfield players line up between 5 and 15 yards away from the players they are covering in his scheme. The third string quarterback for a struggling UCLA team opened the 2008 season by beating Tennessee. With future NFL players in the defensive backfield in Demetrice Morley and Eric Berry, the secondary of Tennessee continues to struggle to stop short or long pass plays. "



This doesn't give you a warm, fuzzy feeling does it?

Saban was doing it here and there against State and Auburn.


Get over it. At this point, it's safe to say ANYBODY is a huge improvement over what we have.

Oh, I don't disagree. But Chavis is not in the Saban/Muschamp mold of aggressive, blitzing defense. He would be a huge upgrade over what we have now but his style is not that different from Pelini, imo.

If he can have the defense hold the opponent to 1 fewer point than the LSU offense scores,....I'm all for any scheme.

Second or 3rd in the SEC isn't bad. And top 15 nationally also not bad. Anyone know about DB's and Safeties in the NFL who studied under him?

Johhny Majors put it best:

"John Chavis has been saving Fulmer's job for the last 10 years."

Chavis is easily the best DC in the SEC.

Following the 2006 Season Chavis was named as the Assistant Football Coach of the Year by the American Football Coaches Association.

Putting this in perspective, the LSU D gave up over a half a mile to offenses this year.
