This is nonsense. When a coaching change is made, most of the time, the entire staff is replaced... offense and defense... Sometimes, there are a few lucky ones that are held onto, but for the majority of the time the entire staff is replaced. We have lost 3 coaches this off season. One is now a HC, by way of another school, but a HC nonetheless. One was replaced that everyone paying attention to the program wanted changed. And one is a journeyman who is now at his 5th job in 6 seasons. I'm with you about the rest, but that part is nonsense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JFDTiger80 787 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 If this is going to happen with McGriff I would expect it to be locked down in a very short time frame. If it drags, he won't be coming here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me our DBs played better under Brown. It will be interesting to see which direction we go. Pogue is another possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one, will be happy to get the Crime Dog back on staff. However looking at things realistically, he will probably only be around for a couple of seasons at the most before he would get another DC job... Did you see his defense at Ole Piss? The “land sharks” were like going against air. That was probably his one shot at being a DC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yadadada. I don’t think anyone has said that... For the most part everyone is wishing him well and excited if we can get McGriff to be the successor.

auburnphan 6,050 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I thought our DB's played well under Brown. The biggest issue that they had, was somehow a mediocre QB would be able to throw darts against us when we had perfect coverage. If this is Steele's hire, I have high expectations. McGriff would not fall under that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AuburnNTexas 7,104 Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 When he came in I remember a lot of people saying goober couldn't recruit.. Last couple of DB classes were real good under Brown. I thought he did a good job with our DB's but not surprised he is leaving with his track record but I will be sorry to see him leave.
