The defense he put together at Tennessee in '85 was truly nasty, too.

I actually came here to post what you just did. Chavis was an outstanding DC for a very long time.

Nah. I like his aggressive style but his defenses get torched way too often.

I can think of 3 - all coached at Bama:
- Oliver
- Smart
- Donahue

He was really good, and a really cool guy. I use to run into him pretty often, where I use to live. He was funny as hell to talk to.

Correct answer imo.

Erskine "Erk" Russell
I readily admit that the choice is sympathetic more so than rational. It's more for what he did at Georgia Southern as head coach than the Junkyard.

Ken Donahue was to defense what Bud Wilkinson was to offense. Innovative and as tough as a 2 dollar steak. The best thing to ever come out of Tennessee.
"Brother" Bill Oliver was a very close second.
