Coach KS is doing a very good job and I am glad he is at Auburn. I am glad to someone who thinks like I do about CKS. He has taken our defense to another level that we have not had since Coach Tuberville. If little Nicky thinks enough to hire him more than once, he must have something that is good about him. I think that CWM did a good job of recruiting of which is showing this season. CKS is an excellent recruiter as well. It is kind of silly to dwell on CKS past performance.

Only time will tell whether or not his defenses decline. Any DC will see a decline when he loses top shelf players and has to break in a new group of defensive players. We could go on about this until the end of the season and get nowhere. The bottom line is that he is doing a super job. He has a solid core group of experienced seasoned position coaches that are working as a unit. Let's look at how we turn out at seasons end. Doc, I, too, like what CKS is doing with the defense. I expect it will be solid at year's end. CKS's defenses have declined over multiple seasons in the past. I'm sure we all hope that doesn't happen here at AU.

Timeslider 6 269 Posted October 16, 2016 Share Posted October 16, 2016 I know Doc tends to wear those orange colored glasses, but i will give CKS the benefit of the doubt until he proves me otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are having an almost identical season that Adams and Lawson had their freshman years Davidson is certainly a force, but he's a strong side DE. Lawson a weak side edge rusher. Hopefully Holland steps his game up between now and next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While many CKS non-fans will mention that he holds the NCAA Bowl Game record for points allowed, most see that only as confirmation of opinion already held. Namely, that CKS's defenses get worse over time, not better. Can you expand on his defenses getting worse rather than better historically? Do you mean as the season goes on? From season to season?
