Prolly the most impressive bowl victories, save for bama in last few years

Went with a blank check to what they considered the best DC in the country and gave him an almost unheard of at that time multi-year guaranteed assistant contract and full control of that side. Venables has proven that he is indeed one of the very best DCs in the country.

They attack on defense with tons of pressure and play a lot of press/man coverage. Interesting that they led the nation in pass interference and defensive holding penalties.

so... we didn't let Bama beat us bad enough??

 

[Indndawg]

Perhaps we should do the same.

Big opportunity for Dan and Cohen with Sirmon moving on. We can set the stage for Fitz's senior year with a great hire right now.

Track record indicates wasted opportunity on the horizon.

We need to do this yesterday!!! Call Todd Grantham and offer him 1.75 - 2 million!!!

I agree with you, but what makes you think we will open up the pocketbook to get a good assistant. Have we done that one time since Mullen got here? We don't pay our assistants well enough for them to put up with Mullen and stay for more than a year or two. We've got the money, so let's start using it for assistants.

Agreed. If Sirmone is leaving, then Cohen needs to remind Dan of the investment we have in place, the future we have with our offensive players on squad and incoming and make a good decision with a substantial offer plus incentives.

I'm not holding my breath, but this will be Cohen's first big decision with our football program and it is a chance for him to make a good hire.
