demoted coaches?

I have a bad feeling that miles is going to retain both D co- coord. and put them as position coaches. I really hope this is not the case. He needs to clean house on the defense. It is hard to be motivated and respected by players after you have been unsuccessful. Just my 2 cents.

I would prefer them gone, but as long as they are not calling the defense I will be happy. How do you hire a big time DC if he can't bring in his own coaches? Dunbar maybe...?

Dunbar can coach DLine, but has trouble being told what to do. He should get a head job at a smaller school. Don't remember him as a DC. I remember he coached DLine at Nicholls under Daye and for a year or so under Saban. Went to the pros and then what?

I agree. You can't force a fit. Let the DC have full controll. If it has worked well enough in the past for LSU to consider for the job don't screw it up. If you don't think coaching matters just look at the SEC WEST. We need a coach who has a track record of improving talent at the college level. These kids all think they will play in the NFL and they look a a coaches ability to put players in the league. This was a bad decision with co-coord. LSU is not a learn on the job place. Sometimes talent will get by on talent but is obvious they were not well coached. I have my doubts that they would do any better as a position coach.

Yeah, because they did such an awful job in 2007.

The 2007 team:
1. More talent (although this D had plenty as well)
2. Leadearship on the field (This year NONE)
3. A DC that could coach. (This years D was confused all year. They would have been better off playing man coverage and blitzing ever play. I have never seen a team with more blown coverages.

i would actually prefer all the position coaches to be fired except for studwara and porter. we need a massive overhaul.

So it would be a bad thing for them to be doing what they were doing in 2007. Yeah Buddy! Makes perfect sence to me!

your spot on with 2 and 3, but #1 is a stretch. There is an absolute plethera of talent but poorly coached - Case in point...what happened to Curtis Taylor and Harry Coleman last year with Pelini at the helm vs this year. Also Chad Jones was ridiculous last year with the correct coaching.
