Ole Miss is about to hire a guy who has never been a coordinator in 26 years of coaching to be a DC? Let me explain something to those who don't understand coaching. Crime Dog is a hell of a recruiter. That's why he has been given honorary titles like "Co-DC" and "Recruiting Coordinator". He gets thrown a bone and gets a raise with a new title to recruit. If a guy has been that valued as a recruiter and has never coordinated his own defense in 26 years, major red flags.

You can say what you want about Dave Wommack as a recruiter but the guy had been a DC since 1985. He was the definition of an X's and O's guy who I greatly underestimated when Freeze brought him over. in 2014 he coached Ole Miss to the #1 defense in America. The guy knew what he was doing. Now we get to last year where the talent dipped but Dave didn't forget how to coach.

2016 national stats:
-100th scoring defense
-110th total defense
-120th rushing defense
-91st first downs allowed
-97th sacks
-87 INTs
-93rd passes defended
-86th opponent 3rd down conversion
-112th opponent 4th down conversion
-125th opponent redzone conversion
-89th in takeaways
-117th in plays of 50 or more yards allowed


So that defense which was arguably the worst in college football is going to replace an X's and O's schemer like Dave Wommack with a guy who has never been a coordinator in 26 years of coaching AND put in a new scheme? Holy mother that is an impossible task and odds for Crime Dog.
