I'm not really big on Jim Leonhard. We're pretty much swapping Golding for Jim Leonhard with same results. This year his defense averaged little over 20 points per game. They're not always consistent on field. He can't even beat Ohio State offense. he's like what 0-3 or 0-4.... against Day.
and I think we need to back off on Golding a little for the performance on Auburn:
I really dont' think we'll get rid of Golding. There is nothing out there we can upgrade... Schumann is popular choice but i don't think we can pull him.
and I think we need to back off on Golding a little for the performance on Auburn:
quote:
“I’ll tell you what, Auburn did a great job with the run game. They created some edges. Some of the plays they ran – when I was 10 years old, we ran the single-wing. You guys don’t even know what the single-wing is. But that was my first football (offense). I was the quarterback in the single-wing. But the quarterback doesn’t do anything in the single-wing except block. Some of the plays that they were running with the quarterback, I hadn’t seen them since Pop Warner (laughs). And they’re good plays, and they’re hard to defend. Their quarterback played an outstanding game from a run standpoint, and they executed.
“It’s like playing against Wildcat when the running back’s in the backfield and somebody’s gotta go cover the quarterback, except he’s a good enough quarterback to run. And then they created some Wildcat situations, as well. So they really attacked us on the edges and did a good job of cracking and blocking us on the edges. We practiced against some of that stuff. We didn’t execute it as well as we’d like at times, but they also created some advantages for themselves.”

Schumann and Muschamp are Co-DC at UGA. Anyone know who actually calls the plays on defense?

The text/quote following:
does not excuse the fact that this Golding-coached, veteran defense gave up 318 yards on the ground (at 7.4 yards / attempt) to a team that sits at the bottom of the SEC standings.
Additionally, these teams held Auburn to fewer points this year:
- San Jose State
- Penn State
- Missouri
- LSU
- UGA
- A&M
**Arkansas allowed 27 points; the same as UA.
That is absolutely horrendous and there should not be a single Alabama fan that continues to vouch for Golding at this point. I was optimistic before the season started that Golding would flip the script this year and field an outstanding defensive unit, but with his group’s performance this year, he has further solidified the idea that he has long overstayed his welcome in Tuscaloosa.

If this really is the case, it doesn't say much for the state of defensive coaching in the country.
I'd have to believe there are upgrades over Golding we could pursue.

This guy must be kin to Golding.
Ryan Walters has Illinois' defense in the top 3 in the country with Michigan and Georgia. Read his bio and it's a lot of what we desire in a DC. LINK

I think that one of the big problems this season was Too'Too. He plays hard and gives a lot of effort, but I just don't think he is strong/athletic enough to be that guy at LB. He has trouble getting off of blocks and filling holes. Seems like it led to a lot of successful plays on the ground for the other team. That and our safeties have been pretty bad in coverage downfield.
