Smith had prior college DC experience at Rutgers though (where his unit put up solid numbers)... not sure if this guys called defenses before or not.

He was the DC at Richmond (FCS). If he is hired, then Haley would likely either be out or coach linebackers.
Regardless of the eventual hire, this entire process partially validates the "Miles clause." With every candidate mentioned, we analyze the position they can coach because the defensive position coaches' salaries are not contingent upon the employment of the DC. Furthermore, prominent DC candidates would seemingly want to bring in their own coordinators, but are unable to do so because of the guaranteed contracts on the books---potentially reducing our chances to hire these candidates. The same process would unfold, with even more at risk, if we guaranteed coordinator salaries in the event of a head coaching change. Hence, the real problem in the current situation might not be the "Miles clause" applying to coordinators, but rather the lack of a"Chavis Clause" applying to defensive position coaches.
