Brad Lambert - Marshall - 3rd in total defense this year - Broyles Award finalist

Kurt Mattix - San Diego State - 4th in total defense this year.

Ilaisa Tuiaki - BYU - 9th in total defense this year.

All ranked ahead of Freeman's defense at Cincy.

Chris Ash - Texas
Runs 4-2-5 and did a decent job in his first year there. No one on here seems interested in him but I like him over most candidates mentioned. He also seems more plausible than landing Leonhard or Odom. Sark may retain him but it doesn't seem like a given he will.

I was wondering about Chris Ash, too. Why not begin the process with a half dozen guys and Ash and Nielsen be two of the 6? Steele wouldn't be a bad pick as a stop-gap (he'd be 6 of 6).

If you're gonna name this guy, Arnett from Mississippi State should be mentioned. That's basically his defense that remains at San Diego State.

They had a good defense this season. He and Reaves at UAB abound definitely be considered.

Fine with me! That's a positive sign he's willing to go back to coaching college. And for once O's connection to Pete Carroll could work in our favor.

Offer Ryan Nielson the $3M you should’ve offered Freeman and be done with it.

Yay! Another battle for a coach. That has seemed to work out well for us.

That’s what O wanted to do but he’s apparently not a big enough name

Rumor is Chris Ash and Charlie Strong are up for the last assistant spot at UF. Either one would work here
