We LSU fans were thoroughly warned by Tennessee fans what we were getting with Chavis before he was even handed the keys to his office. 3rd and Chavis was the term they used. A bend but don't break defense... well, his defense broke us many, many games in the 4th. Not too mention we lost our nasty streak on the dd-line. I say good riddance. The Notre Dame game was further proof of where he was mentally...Gone.
Steele's d got shredded badly in a bowl game a couple years back so people run with that narrative. As of now, the fact Steele hustles his arse off on the recruiting trail (his first job as a Tiger) I say he is an upgrade. This fall we can debate his X and O approach, but as of now he was given a job to do (recruit talent)and he has worked hard and established trust. Upgrade.

More than shredded... Steele had a mental breakdown that game and was calling plays that he ran with the Panthers in the 90s and nobody on their D had any idea what the hell he was talking about. And Steele is a nervous wreck out there. It's been reported that on game days he sometimes forgets to eat, sometimes pukes, and has had to receive IVs after games. And the bowl game vs WVU isnt the narrative people run with... Steeles' D got worse each year at Clemson, was fired from there, and was demoted while at Bama. That's the narrative people run with. It was just capped off by that bowl game.

He's a better recruiter, not arguing that. But that's about it. And he's our freaking defensive coordinator. Lot more to it than being a good recruiter.
I hope he does an outstanding job for us and is an upgrade over Chavis as DC. But looking at what he's done recently, I don't know how anyone can say he's an upgrade over Chavis as our DC. Recruiting is just 1 piece of the pie.
