We still have two more hires to make. Still could be a big name or two. Plus, big name =/= best fit

This.

I don't know much about this hire, but if he had anything to do with the defense's success at Alabama during two championship seasons, I'm OK with giving him a shot.

If Pruitt knows what he's doing and knows how to surround himself with people that know what they're doing, I'm not too worried about this one.

I really think it's a solid hire. Guys on 247 have been saying that this guy is an up and comer in the coaching community. Plus, whenever you hire a Defensive Coordinator to be an assistant, I never really see that as a bad thing

Plus a former Director of Player Development on a back to back championship winning Bama team...I'll take it. Hopefully he can help get some of these guys coached up.

Continuity is also important, if the coaches have similar coaching styles and defensive philosophy it ensures that the staff is on the same page and the players understand the system. I think it will be a good hire, they both have had similar coaching careers and have been surrounded by Saban in recent years. Not Sexy but I think it helps Pruitt guide the defensive side of the line with less resistance from the assistance coaches.
