re: Charlie Strong - Off The Bench

So you fire Pelini for the same thing in Strong only difference is he has black skin? Yeah, sounds about right.

off the bench - they don't know shite

He hasn't coordinated a defense in at least a decade. He's not a DC for a reason. You need a guy who is proven to be able to shutdown modern offenses in NCAA. It's true you don't forget how to coach a defense but as you saw with Pelini it doesn't mean you can adjust your scheme to the evolution of the NCAA. There's no proof Strong could do that even if he could. Would be a terrible hire.

Use to be a lights out recruiter and DC but that boat has sailed long ago. If you're going to go with that much risk you should've never fired Pelini to begin with. It would be even better to a take a huge risk on someone like Reeves who you don't even know how much involvement he has in the defensive gameplan.
