Seems like that guy might be Rocky Long if that is what he is looking for.

How do you think State fans would react to that hire? The first take optics might be that we missed and settled (that may be the perception on any hire that is not a household name now after the Newberry saga). But, on the other hand, the 3-3-5 was ahead of its time in many ways and the defense popularized by Joe Lee Dunn coming home 20 years later is an attractive prospect. I wonder if he might even be a candidate for an emeritus type consultant role off the field if Long were the pick.
