Does anyone believe that Scott will be the ILB Coach and Golding will be the secondary coach? It seems like that has been the setup anytime they have coached together. Also Scott was a linebacker in college. Quite frankly I know he was at Texas Tech so a lot of the passing stats for Scott's DBs were probably inflated, but those numbers are tough to look at.

while i agree about looking at the #s being painful, you have to remember passing #s aren't JUST on the DBs. if a qb - especially a qb in the pass happy big 12 - has all day to throw, those numbers are going to be high. i have no idea if tech's d-line was good or not, but i do know that Saban coaches the DBs and whoever is listed as the DB coach is, essentially, Saban's assistant and a great recruiter.

If Lupoi is promoted to DC and play caller, he may switch to coaching ILBs. It may wind up like this:
Lupoi - DC/ILB
Golding - CoDC/DB (or OLB)
Scott - OLB (or DB)
Dunbar - DL
Locksley - OC/QB
Gattis - WR/PGC
Key - OL
Burns - RB
______ - TE
Banks - STC
There's still one more on-field staff position open to fill. Or Saban may have his guy, but may not announce it until after NSD. No one is assigned for TEs yet, but Banks was STC/TE Coach at ATM. So, the additional hire (or promotion from analyst staff) could be for offense or defense.
