Looks like he could be the next defensive coordinater. Anyone know anything about him really?

i know that he has aggressive attacking D's at georgia tech and they've been ranked fairly high nationally yearly while not having nearly the number of athletes that LSU does. he'd be a great hire

I remember people proclaiming the Tech defense the best in the ACC this year before the season started, and I'm not talking about Virginia Tech. Could be very interesting.

I see no reason why he wouldn't just join the LSU staff since he wanted to work with Les. Of course that can't be officially decided until have Pelini is officially to Nebraska. The only down side to this is the slight possibility BP does not get the Neb. job and stays at LSU. Now, that would be a nightmare!

Fiery guy, aggressive playcaller, blitzes a lot. His D has kept em in games that Reggie Ball and this year's O have tried like hell to lose. Was DC at tOSU before Tressel got there, and DBs coach there before that.

GT has always had a strong attacking style defense under Tenuta... they just dont have the athletes that LSU has. I would love to see what Tenuta could do with top tier athletes.

this year georgia tech is ranked higher than LSU in scoring D, they lead the nation in sacks, and are second in TFL. sounds pretty good to me

Well hopefully he doesn't lose that attacking style that Bo had in 2005, only to abandon it two years later.

If John Tenuta comes, can we also get Judy Tenuta?
