Here is the catch to that though. If we hire the big name defensive coach it helps us to go outside of our area and recruit because it is a big name. If we win consistently then the high caliber offensive players won't want to go anywhere else. Petrino's two biggest on the field faults were his lack of ability to recruit high caliber athletes and not abandoning the willy robinson defense early enough.

Very true. I just get nervous when I think about hiring a defensive minded head coach because I can't think of many outside of Saban that also have a high powered offense to go with it. And I would surmise that Saban's offense has more to do with getting the elite of the elite offensive players at RB/OL and not so much the system itself.
