    Anyone with "Associate Head Coach" by there name isn't leaving unless it's for a Head Coaching job somewhere. I have always understood that Bumpas wasn't the real brains behind TCUs' defense.

    Frank Spaziani.. Listed as the #6 defensive coordinator on rivals.

    -The Eagles have picked off nine passes in their last three games.
    -Very involved with his DBs
    -#5 total defense
    -#17 passing defense
    -#14 scoring defense
    -#7 rushing defense

    Could we pull him from BC to LSU?

    Gary Anderson has definitely gone up the charts in my book with Utah's performance vs Hall of BYU. Throw in the fact that TCU could only put up 10 on them as well. The two biggest games of their season and the defense came though big time.

    He should be a name we will hearing more and more about.

    I always liked how hard UConn's defense played. Maybe that Orlando fella?

    Chavis is the most likely on that list. Already knows the SEC, and is definitely out of a job.

    definitely should make the short list

    Tennessee has played great defense all year long

    Hard to do when you offense is 3 and out almost every series, but he has managed to keep it together

    I think Tennessee is 5th in the nation in defense right now. And if they had a stat showing average yards per possession, Tennessee would be #1.

    That's impressive, and given that Orgeron looks to follow Kiffin to TN, he could be available for LSU.
