Let's just hope that we hire a Pac 12 quality defensive coordinator this time. Instead of hiring a MWC caliber coach and paying him an upper tier Pac 12 level salary, which has been Mac's MO up until now, hmm?

Your post makes no sense. His "MO?"

Close, but not quite. Once you graduate, you are an alumnus. You never give that up. There's no "former" about it. You may be a former student, but you'll never be a former alumnus.

What if you're a dick and they pull your diploma? Maybe hasn't happened, but should have I bet.

Funny. Lindgren was the coach with zero P5 experience and Baer was loaded with it.
I couldn't care less were the coach is coming from as long as the expectation is excellence. If a coach is still young and working his way up the ladder while kicking ass (Orlando) or has plenty of P5 experience and is kicking ass at Houston, idgaf.

I was going to respond to this...

Nothing more needs to be said.

You really don't know what MO means?

Haha. What I meant was Mac has only been coaching at this level for three years and, therefore has not established any sort of "MO." And as already pointed out, Lindgren was a "MWC" coach as well. Smart ass.

Smart as what? Do we know what his MO is?
 
All of the names on the list - even Gary Gibbs - are P12 level coordinators. That's not a legitimate concern at this point.

After looking into what Gary Gibbs has done since his stint as HC at OU, I'm actually a little more comfortable with him if that's eventually the direction we take. He knows the game.

For the job at hand, I think we need a guy with a lot of patience and willingness to help kids improve. I'd think Gary Gibbs, being a more veteran guy, might have those things as a strong suit.
 
would be nice to know the new dc by monday since d gibbs bowl game is friday, dead period doesn't end until 1/14 but having a new dc hired and in place would hopefully help recruiting although it seems like the class is already pretty much done...

Maybe. He's also 62 and has been coaching in the NFL for more than a decade. He may actually have very little patience with college kids. And that might not be a bad thing.

He had some great defenses at OU under Switzer. Also coached under Saban and Andy Reid (and the great Romeo Crennel...). He watched a player kill himself and managed to seem to stay stable. But mostly, I imagine he could put together a hell of a defensive staff while getting the most out of the players.

1. Switzer is God.

2. His age really makes me leery. Are we his last stop before retirement? Does he have enough/anything to prove?
 
Would be interesting to see names of assistants these guys have worked with that would be a good fit here.
 
Worthless poll I was looking for the Dave Logan option. Now that I got that out of the way I do wonder why D Gibbs took a year off and then went to a UFL team. Lack of options? Or was he not thought of as a good coach?

yeah - I agree with that. And as an aside, those assistant's associated recruiting pipeline that is current... The NFL guys and Pendergast won't have one. I would bet the UH coaches know of some really good Texas kids without top P5 options right now that might be poachable.
 
Need to add Dick Bumpas. His D is just dominating Ole Miss. Plus his name is awesome. The d-line could be the dogs in an ode to a Christmas Story.

Definitely. Some potentially big decisions to be made in recruiting.
