How we feeling about this new DC?

quote:

---

Dude is a high energy recruiter that relates to players and runs the Saban/Smart/Steele/Muschamp defense.

I mean, hard to ask for much more

It’ll be interesting to see how he does here. High energy and a great attitude goes a long ways towards success.

His defense statistically haven’t been great so I guess Sam is leaning heavily to the recruiting angle and saying we need better dudes since our defense already sucked.

Elite recruiter, knows the SEC as a player and coach. Young, big energy guy.

Fits what we needed. Will probably make some noise in the portal immediately.

He said Hampton was under heavy consideration but never said he was the guy. Might have been between him and Williams

I'm fine with this. Never heard of him and only know what I read here. Sounds like he's what we were wanting in a DC.

And seriously, if he flops, he won't be any worse than what we've had for most of the last decade.

you crap stirring knucklehead!

In honesty, we should have hired someone WAY better

Am I truly disappointed in this hire? Yes, absolutely

I would have liked the Tulane guy, loved the Maryland guy, or even LB coach Lance Thompson from Maryland who did ample time with Saban at Bama

Would have been elated to get the Syracuse guy


and I wasn't fricking joking a week or so back about taking Pete Golding from Bama off their hands. They hate him, because Gump fans are fricking idiots. That would have been such a fun hire and a good hire. And so the resident 9th grade smart arse idiot on here can be served a microwaved preemptive STFU on that Golding topic

I like that Travis Williams cut his teeth as a GA under Gene Chizik at Auburn, under Ted Roof the DC, who is still considered a highly knowledgeable guy in this game.

Screw the Malzahn connection, I can't stand that guy.

Williams had a year I guess with Muschamp and that's good. And more time with Kevin Steele. Excellent.



What none of us can ever predict is some young guy who blows the world up and becomes a household name in two years. Can this young guy do that? Sure he can. So I'm All-Hog and Go Hogs Go. Do I like the guy already as a person? You bet. Do the opposite George said. Maybe the opposite line of thinking is what ends up making us run through the streets drunk with a goal post.


Looking back, the only time I've ever been excited about a Hog DC hire, it was John Thompson, and he did well enough to get the Florida job and then a HC job. Excited about Robb Smith? no. Excited about Odom? Not really. Exited about Willy Rob? No. Excited about any Nutt DC besides Thompson? No.

Odom was a step up from Chavis, hopefully this guy is a step up from Odom. I’m just glad that Sam has gotten a respectable coach who has potential to move forward.

His two hires have been impressive. We’ll see how they pan out. I’m looking forward to it.
