2009 Was one of the best Clemson defenses in a while, 2010 was definitely solid... But there was a HUGE dropoff in 2011.
Kevin Steele after leaving Clemson
quote:

"I have had a great experience at Clemson and feel good about what we have accomplished the last year three years," Steele said in a statement. "But there are some other coaching opportunities I wish to pursue at this time."


Coach Swinney after Steele deciding to leave
quote:

"Although we were inconsistent at times with a young defense this year, overall we have been one of the best defenses in the country the last three years under his direction," Swinney said. "I thank him for his hard work and dedication to our program and wish him nothing but the best."


This is kind of a response thread but why is Steele such a dreadful hire considering he wasn't that bad at Clemson? Plus LSU has more talent and experience than that 2011 Clemson team. Just interesting to me.

Thoughts?

I'll withhold judgement until I see what LSU's defense does this upcoming year. Just seemed like an underwhelming hire for LSU at the time.

He might work out for you, good luck

He can't be as bad as the rant has made him out to be

Lotsa folks thought the same of Chief. A majority of those that did were wearing Ernge at the time.

Seriously...Lots of folks mentioned we'd hate 3rd and Chavis. Which though we had athletes that helped lessen its impact at times, it still reared its ugly head.

Exactly.

I will admit us Aggies are biased because we don't remember him as Nick Saban's old defensive coordinator, we remember him as:

Yeah but how much of that was bitter Tenn fans?

I could see them being pissed at yall. Post Chavis they fell off a cliff and he was an alum there.

He's not the HC at LSU and Baylor was dreadful before, immediately after, and during Steele's tenure

I posted about his time at Baylor where he won 1 conference game in 4 years but it appears to have been removed. Are you swamp kittens so insecure that you requested an admin when I posted Kevin Steele's 1-31 conference record? Really? That's adorable.
