What has Ellis Johnson done on his own for decades? Other than go 0-12 at Southern Miss....other than a brief stop at the Citadel he has been a career assistant. He was terrible at Bama under Dubose.

Kirby has the best situation of any coordinator out there.......why should he rush into to 2nd rate program?

How can you compare Ellis' time at Al Obama with Smart's? Just a hunch, but maybe the talent level is a little better now?

And very good at USCe under an offensive hands off the D HC. Dubose was an idiot and he struggled with bama. He upgraded big time at USCe and did well.

If that is a slam at AU you're an idiot.

Nevermind, we all know you're an idiot already. Congrats.

Not all defensive coordinators are good head coaches. Remember that guy named Gene Chizik? He coached some of the best defenses in college football during his time at Texas and Auburn, and now...? You saw what the defense looked like at Auburn. Besides, it's retarded to judge Ellis Johnson by what he did back in 1999. How about we judge him by his defenses at South Carolina? They were pretty damn good.

We all see the purpose behind your terrible post though, but at least you try hard.
