Some of you have a short memory. Kevin Steele, while a sold coach, didn't have a great go
of it as DC or head coach. He was basically demoted after 2007 at Alabama as well. And was even out of coaching as support staff in 2013.

Tuner may not work out, but he's a former NFL DC with eight years experience doing so. He's also very familiar with Nick Saban. I think we will take our chances with a position coach.

Tucker has not had much success but Saban is familiar with him and must like him, same can be said for Steele. As an LSU fan I just hope Steele has learned a few things since the last time he was a DC. I don't think Tucker is some kind of big swing here, Saban is really the DB coach.
