I think we'll hire the new DC by the end of the week, but I wonder who. My bet is on the man from Cut Off, LA. despite his record this year, we know he's a hell of a DC and an even crazier recruiter.
The defense is solid and yes you need a Coach , but and yes I started to say anyone could come in a do the job . But that is not so.Where is the last coach thatwas with Saban , offer it too him now ! I asked this question yesterday , but I am not a tiger fan I guess http://www.tigerforums.com/tigers-den/64290-who-will-coach-you-defense.html
Regardless, I believe Miles said Bo would be coaching the NC game. Apparently he will return to BR after dead week starts on Dec 17.
Who will run our defense? Glenn Dorsey, of course... Seriously, I don't believe Pelini will run it for the NCG, nor should he. He has other commitments now, and we will move on. I still don't believe his heart was in the job from mid-season on as it was. He should, however, receive a ring after the beat down the Buckeyes.
Let me preface by saying that I don't think Bo SHOULD stay and coach the NCG, although I have no problem with Bo...just don't think his mind will be on LSU. Of course, I'm pretty sure his mind has been elsewhere the past SEVERAL weeks, so maybe he'll be more clear thinking now. BUT, correct me if I'm wrong...CParso?? Aren't we about to enter a dead period concerning recruiting? I don't think he'll be able to recruit much between now and then anyway.
Dead period is Dec 17 - Jan 3, then again Jan 7 - 10. But he does have to put a staff together and all the other stuff that comes with being a HC. I do wonder if there are enough hours in a day to do both jobs.
I guarantee you that this has been decided already by Neb and by LSU. Pelini has had the NEB deal done for close to a month and at that time we were in the driver's seat for the NT game. So that was worked out already. We just don't know it yet.
miles said again on jordy's show on 1210 this morning that pelini will coach the D in the NC. not sure how i feel about that.
Don't know I how i really feel about this, but thank god we have good senior leadership. Now we just need a better gameplan than what he had for the last few weeks of the season.
