1. Cohen knew this was coming and was prepared for it.

2. Half of y’all think Grantham is the only guy that knows how to coach a defense.

...and they'll tell you it's not because of the money but I've never once seen God call a preacher or a coach to less pay.

I wouldn't say that. I'd say continuity on defense with a known commodity is a good thing.

It's very rare, but I've seen preachers do it. Kinda sad how ministry is so much of a professional these days. I will have to say though that churches contribute to this outlook, maybe drive it. Very sad.

I think its just that we've been so inconsistent on defense in 17 head's tenure, that Grantham was ray of light. People tend to cling to hope

It probably wouldn’t hurt to have one side of the ball not learning a new system. But at his rate our defensive players would probably think it’s weird to have the same coach in consecutive years.

My guess is that if you are a defensive commit...

You would feel much more comfortable with who you know than who you don’t.

I definitely want Grantham back, but a lot of our adulation comes from just how pitiful Sirmon was in comparison.
