I've always thought Saban worked more with the safeties. Could be wrong though

I like this hire. I'm happy Bama has a seasoned, veteran coach at this position.

at alabama hiring a db coach who is a 10x better hire at DC than what lsu actually got. chicago the last 2 years is clouding everyone's minds, but hes was a really good nfl defensive coordinator at the browns and jacksonville. had no talent to work with at chicago, wont have that problem at bama

I wonder who downvoted you?

So he was basically hired just to fill the NCAA coaching numbers.

Isn't there a board for this? Or is it down already?

As a life long Bears fan I think this is a horrible hire. Last year he would not, or could not, adjust the Defense to the strengths of his individual players and the veteran players did not respect him. A perfect example was Fuller. The kid is a physical DB yet he would not switch to press coverage but instead played him off. Who knows maybe he can be a great position but based off what I saw him do in Chicago the past 2 years I would not hold my breath.

If you would've started a thread about this there would be 20 pages easily... Bad placement have a downvote...

Sounds like status quo for Bama DBs. Saban has always wanted run stoppers first and pass coverage second.
