Who do we hire as DC ?

Jim Leonhard but he is not leaving Wisconsin unless
its a head coaching job.

Belk is legit and Antonio Pierce is done a good at ASU but this is his first year.

I try not to name defense coordinators from UGA & Bama because of the talent they have on the team would make Manny Diaz defense look decent.

It is being so long for many of us who saw greatness @ this U in the beginning of this century. This mediocrity and incompetence **** needs to end
 
I like what Mattix* is doing at San Diego St. SDSU beat Utah so he clearly knows something Mario doesn't.


*I originally said Arnett, but @Liberty City El dropped some knowledge on me. Arnett is at MSU. I like him too. Who would have thought Leach would have a top 25 D!

He is going to have his fair share of offers I’d bet. He is young, he has UH defense playing lights out, highly ranked in several defensive categories, secondary background, learned under Saban/Kirby and was on Bama’s staff with Mario for 2 seasons. He is also a great dude, worked with him and he would have us in GA as well as TX HEAVY on the trail.

Mullen OC
Belk DC

I’m screaming that until hires are made, idgaf.

Great post and you are right on the money. Belk is a fantastic candidate for DC. Mullen for OC would also be a very smart and shrewd move. Anytime you can get a coordinator with head coach experience it is a huge plus. Mullen's offense isn't my favorite but I do like it. I also feel he would be flexible with the talent available.
 
Just keep in mind, Napier worked with Belk too at Bama so wouldn't surprise me if he goes after him if he gets hired at one of these vacancies. Again, I think that he will be a hot commodity once these schools get their head man.

Mario has a history with Todd Orlando. I wouldnt mind seeing Jimmy Lake on staff (maybe Co-DC?)

Good call on Jimmy Lake. Lots of good names going around here. Lake, Belk, Schuman....all great choices. Nothing like an imminent coaching change to get the blood pumping!
 
Morgan Scalley from Utah. Controversial but great DC and has problems at Utah. They cut his pay and took him off HC in waiting. The kind of misfit we need that will continue the chip on the shoulder play we are used to.

My point was the AD deserves to put in place the HCs he succeeds or fails with.

The HC(s) deserve to put in place the assistants they succeed or fail with.

In the new AD and HC(s) we trust, until we don't.

One of the major problems with delays CMDs replacement is the top coordinator candidates will be picked off by other teams. It would be great to have someone named by next week unless the man is already on board and working on his staff.
 
**** I'm riding with OP with this on. In OP's voice
