Wrights_Mill_Road 2 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 tubbs would be awesome but it wouldn't happen. he was the reason for chizik's, muschamp's, etc... had success at auburn. that man can coach defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VA Tiger 0 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Who in the world worth a hill of beans wants to work with Malzahn as a DC? WE can't recruit worth crap on the defense and we certainly can not coach worth dung on that side of the ball? You dream Mate. This probably the best we can do. Scary, isn't it.

ShocksMyBrain 9,364 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 They're expanding Cinci's stadium. I doubt Tubbs coaches anywhere else after he's done there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToomersRevenge 284 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Why in the world would you bring Chizik back? Not that he's a bad D coordinator...but really? And nobody thinks it'd be really awkward working for the guy you hired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesG 0 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I seriously doubt Gus will make the change.... we dont have any impact players on D (MAYBE one). What puzzles me is why our defense under CEJ is completely clueless and incompetent against spread teams. We played GREAT on D against K State, LSU and Arky ( all Pro style) and got absolutely shredded by all the spread teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played GREAT on D against K State, LSU and Arky ( all Pro style) and got absolutely shredded by all the spread teams. Johnson has never defended the spread well. Back in 2010 he was griping to the media about the spread offense and how difficult it is to defend against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gman87 398 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Manny Diaz comes to mind first. Holy s*** I hope you're kidding. He's awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metafour 4,969 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Holy s*** I hope you're kidding. He's awful. His defense at La Tech has been an improvement. He was also good at MSU. More importantly; his defensive philosophy (emphasis on forcing turnovers) mixes well with an uptempo offense that wants to wear defenses down. We typically win the game when we win the turnover battle with our offense, it would be a solid recipe to complement an offensive HC with a defense that puts our offense back onto the field. Louisiana Tech is tied for 3rd in the nation in Turnovers Gained this season. I'm not saying it would be my pipe-dream first choice, but a Malzahn/Diaz combo makes a lot of sense on paper. Diaz is also still only 40 so there is more room for growth there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeBags7277 734 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I think Diaz would be a good fit. He was an up and comer before climbing aboard the Mack Brown sinking ship, inevitably becoming a fall guy. The line between good and turrible for assistant coaches can often be as thin as making a single poor career choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger Vision 1 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 who would you like to see??? Some names I've heard was Chizik, Tuberville, Smart, Diaz, etc.... Also take into account school familiarity as well as overall success I'm sorry but when there are over 100 FBS teams and the 4 coaches you come up with are Tubs, Chizik, Smart and Diaz it tells us you obvs don't watch any other football besides Auburn Football. Tubs is done. Chizik is prob dumbest idea. Smart jumping ship is like Hitler joining the British army. We need to move fwd not regress. How will Diaz help us with recruiting? I'm sorry..but no man. I'd rather hire a CFL defensive coordinator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooltigger21 0 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 If muschamp is fired at UF maybe we go get his DC. He has produced good defenses despite a pitiful offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
