DC at Duke is a name I've been hearing a lot for the D.C. Position. Supposedly Chavis has garnered some interest too. Just passing along some stuff I've heard. Have no idea how legit it is.

Chavis would be a move back to 4-3. I actually think our personnel matches better for 4-3

Chavis is way past his prime. I hope we talk to Shannon.

Yea, because Chavis’ Defenses have been SO good in the last 10 years. Good GOD!!

Chavis would be a disaster hire. LSU was better after he left and UT hated him and was glad that he left. He did next to nothing with the talent at TAMU as well.

Gosh I hope its not Chavis. Past his prime, and basically doesnt recruit any more.

Really Clark?

What? His scoring defense was #4 nationally his last year at LSU and Top 15 every year except one when he was 21st. LSU has been 41, 5, 21 since he left. A & M went up like 40 spots his first two years compared to the year before. This year was bad. How much was the issues of coaching staff about to be fired I don't know and playing defense behind Sumlin offense is an issue as well. But don't misconstrue the LSU job

Agree, Chavis would be only a notch above a Carl Torbush hire at this point in his career.

Knowles at Duke was the DC at Madison Central back in the 90's if its the same person.

Knowles coached lb's from cut at OM. He's got Duke's def in top 25 in a ton of catergories. Think he is from Pennsylvania originally

Knowles would be good- don't think he ever coached at Madison Central though.

Chavis- wouldn't like it.

We cqn not be so bad to follow up a great hire with Chavis.

If Chavis' work at ATM is any indication, no thanks.

Not endorsing him... just saying I think we could be better in a 4-3, not necessarily a chavis 4-3

Chavis' 2 minute prevent defenses suck big time. Especially don't want to be in game against Bama with him as DC in last 2 minutes. So I hope this doesn't happen.

Otherwise, I tend to agree with you.

True. Difference is Grantham went down swinging. He still blitzed (probably sent too many tho) and didn't get there in time. Chavis goes into his 3 man rush prevent D and I hate that crap.

That was before we would offer him 1.2 million a year to coach.

No to Chavis. My Aggie friend is completely fed up with him.

We've beaten Chavis at least 3 times I think. He's overrated. Get someone under 40 please.
