Nearly every thought you post is unenlightened. Just today ESPN ran a story in which Mac Brown assures the world that Muschamp is staying at Texas. Why? Because so many teams are after him with big dollars and big promises. So yes, it's not likely to happen that he will leave UT for LSU. Nor is it likely to happen that you will ever gain control of your arrogance and secure the admiration of the wise.
Could be worse... Crowton could all of a sudden decide to use his pull and bring in Harvards DC as a favor to Hatch.
I think one thing to keep in mind about Robinson's tenure with the Chiefs is that he came on board as DC just after Neil Smith left via free agency, Derrick Thomas' tragic death, and a drug scandal involving Bam Morris that imploded the team. Vermeil and Robinson inherited a Chief's team in shambles. I agree that from 2000-2002 the Chiefs D was not very good, but by 2003 Robinson had them playing good enough for the Chiefs to make a playoff run. Was it Robinson's coaching or an overall lack of talent that made those defenses bad? You can't make chicken salad out of chicken diddley poo.
Chicken didley poo, eh, that's a good one. You definitely demonstrate how the devil is in the details. When people show a table of overall performance rankings for a team under someone's watch, it is one piece of information that should be considered, but is often misleading, unless the patterns are over a long time stretch. I'll bet someone can take the Saints offensive stats under Carl Smith and somehow make them look good and make an argument that he was a great OC - uh, maybe on second thought, that is not such a good example:lol: You get what I mean. Has Clemson's Vic Koenig-led defensive stats been a reflection of him or the quality of players or both? Who knows? The flip can be said of Greg Robinson, maybe he is a great coach who was brought in under ****ty circumstances.
I am not cheer leading for any particular person to be DC. On Saturday night, it is the players who are on the field, not the DC. We had the talent on the defensive line this year for any of us armchair analysts to look like great DCs had the players actually decided to play with heart instead of merely going through the motions. At the same time, it is really easy to forget that these are just kids on the field. I think Miles' decision to go with co-DCs was an attempt to keep continuity from the latest National Championship season going. It's the old "if it isn't broken, don't fix it" mentality. Usually, that is a smart decision but in hindsight it was the wrong move. I'd love to see how many posters on this board were opining that this was a bad decision at the time it was made. I think Miles will make some changes on his staff - probably on both sides of the ball - but I think he will wait until after whatever bowl game we play in to make those changes. That is the right timing to make changes, not now. Whatever changes he makes, my hope is that he hires people who will make meaningful and lasting impressions on these young men's lives while also being effective at their jobs.
According to Tigergumbo.com, Greg Robinson, the former coach of Syracuse, is a candiate for DC. He did not deny reports that he had been contacted by LSU. Any thoughts on this?
another speculation for what its worth. this one from charles barbre aka "the rooster" who has a local tv call in show on sun nights. this is from his website:
Robinson? Strange choice if he's the guy. He has a ton of NFL experience but zero connections to the south or SEC. I would prefer an experienced college DC who is at least familiar with the SEC. Has Robinson ever set foot in an SEC town? Get out the trusty GPS.
