Good question. I would have been far happier if they were announcing Smith as the DC.

Secondly, if the reason Kiffin get a free pass for his defenses awful performance at USC because of recruiting sanctions, how does Ryan not get the same benefit for all the injuries his defense suffered???

Eberflus was the technician and the organizer essentially the "brain" of the defense, Rob was the bravado and was obviously disorganized.

Further, Henderson was apparently not happy with Rob being missing as well, on the Cowboys Break they suggested there was some discord on the defensive staff especially towards the end of the season.

As for Lovie. He was still interviewing for HC positions--including at San Diego.

72 is the new black.

You can pick something reasonable if you like. A sig or something. Or if you want to do money, pm me and we'll have one of the mods hold the pot

I'd think about it if I were you though. If we only go 5-11, I win. That's not a very fair bet for you.

I can see that. Neither Rob nor Rex seem like "attention to detail" guys.

Since he's here we have to hope for the best. Our defense for years hasnt produced turnovers or been able to stop anyone. Here's hoping we can change that. Now I'm interested in what occurs with the offense

Yeah, offensive coordinator will be Norv at the ripe young age of 60.

Callahan was brought in to spin straw into gold but it didn't work. I wonder if the o-line will be totally neglected again this April?

Probably.

Wonder if 'naps' are in the contract language.

This made me chuckle.

I feel like this sets us back. Hope our defense doesn't suck next year.
