I'm beginning to wonder how good Steele actually is. He's a tremendous recruiter, but his defenses haven't been that great at Clemson. He was co-DC at Alabama in 2007-08. He was an assistant at Florida State with Mickey Andrews from 2002-06. His head coaching experience was at Baylor, but not many guys do well there. I know he went to UT and has had two stints as an assistant, but other than that what is the appeal?

Dooley supposedly had Steele all but signed the first go around when hired, but Steele backed out over an issue with the AD (Hamilton).
Wilcox and Sirmon did a really good recruiting job and he needs someone to fill that void. Being that a lot of guys will not attach themselves to Dooley at this point, I am guessing that Dooley is hoping Steele's ties to UT as well as relationship with Dooley and Hart (new AD) will be enough to bring him to UT, bc that is probably the best they can pull for now. In addition, he will help keep defensive recruits in tact and put an adequate D on the field.
