re: Coaching Changes Discussion - Chief locked up, what about rest?

The only thing that will derail this staff is a bad DC hire. So unless you think you suck as a DC, then yes, it's about as stable a place as anywhere.

Our DC hire is going to make or break Sumlin's career, which means it will make or break the career of any DC we hire.

If I am Boom, I am not looking for a longterm job. I am looking for a place I can hangout for a year or two that doesn't hurt my chance at being a head coach for some PAC team afterwards. Our DC position has a lot of pressure tied to it, especially compared to someplace like a USC where OBC absorbs all the heat for you if things go south.

SC has never recruited on the level we are right now.

They don't have to, they are in the SEC East. Heck, we need to recruit better than we have been doing in the West, even Sumlin said so.

Both are pretty good situations honestly as both have young talent.

Sure, I agree with that. Any other offseason and we would be the best job out there that isn't an entire staff replacement.

I'm not at all saying we'll get Muschamp but some of y'alls reasoning is nothing more than low self-esteem

Maybe, maybe not. I am usually a sunshine pumper for A&M but I don't like this offseason to be hiring a DC. In retrospect we should have fired him after last season.

Oh well, better than looking for a head coach right now. Nebraska, UF, and Michigan and screwed- all the obvious good options that you can actually get got taken last cycle.
