I am going to see a huge bust for Odom! Walters may not be up there but he will ok okay. The new and improve offense will help Walter and the players. Last year Missouri defensive players were worn out due to being on the field too long. Odom will need a lot more time and will need to recruit better to get better defensive players to counter the new SEC West offense that is now scoring more points than in the past. That is why Arkansas is in a bad spot because Arkansas isn't going to get the same level of 4* and 5* recruits to come to Arkansas that other SEC west teams are getting. That is part of the reason why Odom was fired. He couldn't get better recruits after 4 years! He isn't an ace recruiter. Drinkwitz have already shown to be a much better recruiter as a HC so far. Then Walters beat out Odom for a recruit recently. It is showing he is losing the recruiting battle to Walters already!

DJ Durkin was not the issue at Florida.

What you talking about? I was posting what I thought about Odom and Missouri and now Odom is at Arkansas and he will not be getting it done at Arkansas in his first year. It will take a while to get the defense to be good again and competing against SEC teams. The question is will Odom be given enough time to fix it? On the other hand Missouri will not need a rebuilt on the defense. This is what matters and what the outcome be in 2020.

Grantham’s defense lives and dies by the havoc he draws up on 3rd down, but they have been far more effective than not in recent seasons — no matter what Georgia fans say.

Looks about right other than Durkin being too low.

Yes I know but why ranked him so high? He will have a better defense than Missouri this fall? I doubt that! That is the whole point of ranking the DC! This is not about what the defense will be in 3 or 4 years from now! Talking about this coming fall! This also should be about recruiting class on defense too. Can't compete with lesser players on team if Odom does not picked up better telants after 3 or 4 years. Just like he failed to do that at Missouri. Missouri have already pass the recruiting class that Odom couldn't get it done during his HC career at Missouri.

I fully expect White to move up the list with what he has returning. It was a small miracle the work the defensive coaches did with a young secondary due to injuries.

These ranks will change with the Pass Attack SEC Evolution Revolution

The article blows Steele and puts him first based on 23 points vs LSU when we left 14 on the field — Grantham and Steele are a push at #2 behind Pelini —

Watch the 2020 LSU dee!

You’ll get Pelini vs Grantham in Gainesville
You’ll get Pelini vs Steele in The Burning Barn
You’ll get Pelini vs Elko at College Station

After LSU beats the Top 5, and you clowns eat enough smoke from Pelini’s tailpipes, you can anoint him the new DC Gumba in 2021.

What the hell are you talking about, man? The article clearly states that they're ranking these guys on their play calling abilities. They aren't predicting the order of finish for overall defense this season.

Did you not read the article?

White’s defense ranked No. 3 in scoring defense in SEC play last fall, but there were issues.


But, I mean, one would think that’s kind of the issue that matters.

Odom is a losing cause since Arkansas is rebuilding right now. How will play calling helps if they still get beat big because the defense could stop those good offense teams. This is useless since Arkansas will lose games due to bad defense and not because of play calling. That does not make sense for putting Odom way up there if his play calling will not matter? Odom play calling will only matters if the players are close to even match with the SEC teams. Other than that it will not matter! That is the whole point. Why give odom a pass for this year if they will lose just just about all the SEC games this fall. Arkansas may win 4 games. This is not going to look good for this writer on Odom being top 5 for play calling when the wins will not come due to players on defense aren't going to compete against the SEC offense in the first place. When Arkansas gets the players that can get the job done then you can say Odom play calling is in the top 5. Other than that it just a waste of time of saying this when everyone knows it will not matter at all in the first year or so.
First of all Odom need to set up the right system for each team Arkansas plays this fall. Second of all Odom needs to get the right players for the defense and get better players on defense that can compete against the SEC offense. Third of all he need to make the right play calling on defense. Again it probably take Odom 3 to 4 years to get this to work against the SEC offense.
Why bother reranked every DC the following year?

Which is why Odom is ranked high...because he's a good defensive play caller. It isn't ranking the talent on the rosters.

You posted an article talking about a specific thing then complained that it's talking too much about a specific thing.
