No. His boss got fired. New coach came in and brought his daddy with him.

What was he suppose to do? The guy needed a job.

Exactly. Totally different scenario than Saban's.

I remember reading infamous Vol fan Sabanocchio's post about how much better Tennessee's defense would be under Monte than it had been under The Chief.

I think many Vol fans believed this, and it was obvious both Kiffen and former UT AD Mike Hamilton believed it as well.

Only problem was, Monte has yet to improve a defense from one year to the next. To be fair, he's been at two different schools now, but it's not like he didn't have talent to work with.

The main problem with Monte's Cover 2 in college is the restrictions on practice time college football has that the NFL doesn't. The Cover 2 needs a lot of reps to make it work to perfection.

Meanwhile The Chief has improved his defense in some respect both years he's been at LSU. This year's looks to be his best ever, anywhere.

Very sensible answer to a dumb question. As another poster stated "whole other scenario than $aban".
