I have no reason to doubt this guy is the next big thing at DC, and I have no reason to say he won't hit the ground running. But DAMN man, it would have been nice to have experience

Where is our money? We hired an OL coach that was not going to be retained at Arky, ie a guy who had no job. We hired a coach from North Texas. Gave a couple of off field staffers their first on field jobs. Hired a guy with a great resume from the Big 10. Retained a couple coaches, they probably didn't need a raise. All in all I see 1 guy who MIGHT be paid more than his predecessor. And now we hire a first time DC? We're probably saving $800K at DC vs hiring a guy who's proven. So where's that money going? All to off field staff?

Just saying. We were told the assistant coach pool got bigger, that boosters were ready to pay up to compete. I've seen zero signs of it when it comes to the coaches we hire or the NIL offer we made to DG
