Well folks, this is my bet. Fits all the criteria. Would be an upgrade from a recruiting stand point, not enough data to give a reasonable opinion as far as X's and O's go. His first season as DC last year I think he did well, what does the rant think? He only makes 400K at Nike U. Is an Oregon lifer and a WC guy, would give us new recruiting contacts and a new "energy" in the locker room.

I know he wouldn't be a superstar splash hire, but my gut tells me he would have success here.

No we don't need to recruit the west coast, Have plenty players right here in the south. Pellum is not going to be the next DC IMO.

Why would he leave a yearly contender for LSU?

Moving cross country to take the same job, at a school with less money and a HC who may not be there much longer.

I don't see the benefits for him unless he just really wants to be in the SEC

We don't need a west coast lifer with those contacts, rather have a DC that knows the south and can recruit like a mad man in Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Florida. You are just not going to get that many recruits from the west coast to go to Baton Rouge the returns vs the effort/costs just wouldn't be there.

Also why would Pellum leave west coast lifer great program at Oregon and I would bet Oregon matches if we offer. This doesn't make sense especially sense he has no ties to Miles, the South or the SEC.
