Glad to see at least one coach in La has a sack.

As a former Hud fan, I think I'm going to agree, unfortunately.

Defense has been shite since Hud got there. They're really missing Jay Johnson too.

This is why these "upcoming guys" should jump at the big leagues as soon as they get a chance to

Coaching is not a job where you can hold onto your leverage for too long before you lose your value

Last year him and 2 other former auburn defensive coaches were basically still being paid by auburn after being fired there.

It will be interesting how it shakes out if the other 2 guys stay around

Like Steve Spurrier yanking a shitty QB. They'd seen enough.

Greg Stewart had a good looking defense with Bustle's guys. Was fun to watch.

ever since his first year, Hud has had trouble recruiting the trenches. It's been the biggest weakness.

Hamilton actually made the Seahawks 53 man roster this year, too.

Wrong coach let go.

Not quite as physical a team with those "supplements" from Dallas going back to Texas.
