Corey Hetherman

Offenses have been able to script against his defenses but he is great at making the adjustments needed. We haven’t had a coach that can make adjustments on that side of the ball in a long time.
He's improved on this a ton too:

Last 5 games on 1st drive of each half we are giving up 1.3 pts/drive. First 7 games was 2.4 pts/drive.

Enjoy it while it lasts because he will be a HC soon or offered a DC role in the NFL.
Big difference in a college DC and an NFL DC. CFB HC is likely his only path out of Miami.

99% of the time an NFL DC climbs the ranks as a position coach. They may leave the NFL for their DC job in college and then bounce back (Golden, Minter, and Macdonald). But almost exclusively an NFL DC will have NFL experience. Hetherman doesn't have that.

Don't think there's a single DC in league that went straight from college to NFL with no prior NFL experience.
