    I want to say this..

    The SEC is NOT a conference you let a new Defensive Coor get his feet wet. Stupid move on Dan's part. Add in a complete new defense that non of these guys in their 13 years of playing football every played in. Well most of them.

    Yep
    Not only did Mississippi State embarrass LSU on this night. Davis Wade Stadium wrecked Tiger Stadium in music choice, atmosphere and, most of all, volume.

    Yup. We pulled the dreaded double whammy.

    Hired a first year D.C. to run a defense the players have never run.

    Perhaps a first year D.C. running a 4-3 would've been fine or an experienced D.C. teaching the 3-4 may hae been fine, but both at the same time was major stupid. I'll admit I whiffed and liked the idea at first. In hind sight it was terrible judgement.

    Isn't this what we did with our head coach when we hired Dan?

    He coached in the SEC. Sirmon is a PAC 12 guy with no ties to the SEC. Terrible hire when we could have waived the non-compete on Tom Allen. He wasn't going back to OM with the NCAA nuking them from orbit.

    Mullen was a OC when we hired him. A little different then position coach to DC. I agree with shotgun if we had ran a defense the players understood it might have been different.

    Sirmon was a mistake, but it's easy to second guess the decision after the shit show we've seen this year on D and losing 2 starting corners to start the year.
