Meh. I don't think that this means that he is incapable of running anything else.

Jim Leavitt hired as new Colorado DC

I was thinking the same thing until I started thinking about the "5-2" being more of the "3-4 Under", which I feel is probably more likely considering the type of offenses we face and the speed that is needed on the field. Tough to have 5 legitimate DL on the field for a base D in the Pac 12.
Also, credit to Adam @ Rivals - he had Jim Leavitt on the original hot board.
Lotta street cred with the jucos.
I just went from 6 to midnight.
Great hire! I love the addition of Joe Tumpkin as DB coach as well. MM has really added a lot of quality experience on the defensive side of the ball.
I like the hire. He did great things for USF. They were nothing when he got there. He does come with one blemish:

As another snarky poster, I agree. Solid hire.
EXACTLY! This is probably a short-term stay but we need to get better, fast, period. I can't think of too many guys who better fit that.
Wow! I'm really impressed with this hire!!! This is a big boy hire and I can't imagine the passion on the sidelines with Mac and JL there...should be electric!
Now a Kool-Aid moment...does anyone see 7 wins this year with this hire? The only thing (besides Mr. INT) keeping us from more wins was our atrocious D. I'm not ready to drink it...maybe just getting it out of the cupboard.

beware the habu
I'm actually looking forward to spring ball.
You're a fan of hitting players??? Kidding. Very successful tenure there and will bring a great attitude to the defense.

Looks like a great hire. Lame if he did hit that player at USF, but we need some passion. Bring it!
I've spent time in Harlingen and no offense, but it's not anywhere near the hotbed of TX football. If that's his TX connection, that's just not going to count. He's got no TX connections that I can see. His recruiting grounds at USF was primarily SF.
getting pretty nice props on the rivals mb.

We finally have a real coach on staff, and now you choose to get negative about recruiting?
I don't know, I'm still having trouble finding wins with the home schedule we have next year. It doesn't get much tougher when you only have 4 conference home games consisting of Oregon, Arizona, Stanford, and USC.
