You do realize LSU had him on their DC radar, right?


u really have zero intelligence on the content of any conversations that may have taken place.

Also, the guy has had zero employment gaps during his entire coaching career.


baw, what does this even prove? lots of coaches have zero gaps baw.

He may or may not be exceptional at Alabama, but he was never going to be without a job in 2015.


His hire is much closer to the thank god i have a decent job lined up behind the safety of saban than he's the nice heir apparent to take the reigns over Kirby? Why did Nicky never promote him before?

No one thinks he's the heir apparent to Kirby.

Nick had him as a GA at Mich State and after a year of coaching DBs at Miami (OH), Saban gave him the DB job at LSU (sounds like a promotion from Miami of OH). So, right out of the gate, you're wrong. Also, OSU promoted him from DB coach to co-DC. The Browns promoted him from DB coach to DC. The Jags promoted him from DC to Asst HC/DC.

The man has been promoted before. Like many coaches, when there is turnover at the HC job, he's taken a step back at new jobs, but he's always worked back up in those new jobs.

Let's not act like you or anyone else on this board is fully aware of his reputation in the coaching ranks. LSU fans may have been "melting" at the possibility of him as your DC, but not all were. Also, the mere fact that he was considered for your DC spot and that Miles interviewed him tells you that he's more well thought of by those in coaching than he is by you...Baw.
