re: White versus Jones

People have answered your question you just aren’t listening

Don't worry most of people posting just want to bash and trash. While I have never been a head coach I would imagine it would be like any other CEO of any other company.

1.) Evaluate the performance- yes Jones has less games to go by than White. And who knows what the dynamics were for the first several games before the defense finally clicked. Was O meddling? Was jones being held back or did it take him that long to realize what to do., no one knows except for the people in that building. Jones has been coaching for a while, just not in the DC role. So while there may be limited DC experience you can look at his body of work as a whole.

2.) Interview- I am sure CBK has talked with jones and interviewed him. Maybe they don't share the same vision or there are somethings CBK thinks differently on. I believe this is the biggest factor. If he doesn't think like the CBK or is not on the same page of what direction the program needs to go then its asking for disaster.

like many have said CBK has been around a long time and has been successful he is not going to change his style or way of thinking to try accommodate another coach. CBK may have targeted white due to his performance and being familiar with SEC offenses for more than 1 season, or maybe he got an inside scoop from someone that White could be obtained and then did his research and liked what he seen and decided to try and interview him. Thats my 2 cents.
