Again, I don't dislike the hire. I'm just not all that thrilled about it either. These are my pro's & con's on Chavis and why I'm not disappointed or overly excited. I'd like to know everyone elses opinions on it.

Pros:
Long time SEC coordinator,
Previously built strong defenses,
Helped Tenn to a mNC,
Knows some of the SEC coaches schemes

Cons:
Soft coverage (Mustand/Third and Chavis)
Has had some bad defenses as of late
No NFL experience
The SEC coaches know his schemes
No luck against Meyer and Saban so far

Unkowns:
How he will do outside of Tenn?
Recruiting?

Saban, the offensive genius? Is Saban really matching offensive wits with Chavis?

As to the Meyer deal, they've played them 4 times:

2005: 17 points
2006: 21 points
2007: 45 points
2008: 23 points

I'd consider 17,21,23 points as having decent success against a tough offense with players as talented or more than yours. One very bad game.
