Whomever is running the defense has them playing well. They are a well coached unit for the talent they have. I know if we had WSU's defense, we're probably playing for the Pac - 12 championship game.

That doesn't mean he belongs at a big time program because he doesn't. His air raid offense is meant for a program that will never recruit at a high level.

Never won anything of significance

He's not a defensive coach, so who cares? His defensive philosophy can be "You have free reign, DC. Get me the ball", just like Spurrier at UF with Stoops/Strong.

Won Big 12/PAC-12 COtY awards, as well as 3 different national COtY awards. He's been at TxTech and Wazzu, so he never had the raw material to win NCs there. He would here, especially if Wilson and YawYaw were kept on staff.

"Trouble"? Such as? And...so what? I don't want a politician, I want a damned football coach.

The "James fiasco" was him having some integrity...which I prefer in people. The James family is a bunch of dirtbags.
