Great breakdown.

My idea was strictly upon the basis of us acting like a big boy -- something I have no real reason to expect us to do at this point...

Gotcha. Yeah I get that. Probably hard to pull off with him but i get it.

[I seen it dawg]

I think he was incredibly impressive calling the D at LaTech this year. I couldn't say that any other year, with the occasional exception of 2010. I'm hoping he's a lot more mature and smarter, and CDM picked up on it.

That said, we don't have to offer LaTech's DC our DC job any more. We can offer him the LBs job and still increase his pay. I don't understand why we're scared to hire great, established coaches. Arkansas hit a damn HR with Shannon as LBs coach, then Florida does the same. USC hires Ogre for the DL. So on and so forth... I'm ready for us to start doing the same.

Zero reason why we can't. It's stupid not to. Money is not the problem...

Looks great. Good stuff. Wish I understood more of the adjusted stuff. Can you give a cliffs notes of how they come up with adjusted stats like this? That is a very encouraging and impressive breakdown.

They basically just seek to eliminate (in this case offensive)SOS as a factor, much the same way I do when I do the "this is what the defense gave up vs what the opposing offense averaged". So, you even out the opponents in a way of saying "X amount above average or x amount below average". FootballOutsiders even eliminates garbage drives and such in some of their calculations. Their formulas are significantly more complex.

Thanks. Definitely sounds more accurate

So Torbush sucked so badly he had to leave after (1) YR (no data for yr 2). Wilson was better in YR 1 than 2; Collins was better in YR 1 than YR 2.

Why is this trend?

Does Manny's return count as YR1 or YR 2?.....

The scoring for Collins's second year was better but yards worse. So which year was better probably has to do with your point of view. I think the end of last year was the best of Collins but the beginning was difficult while guys gained experience. And these numbers do not include Collins in the Northwestern game but I give him a pass for that.

Is year 2 worse for our recent DC's due to our "Football Inventing" head coach meddling with the defense after he's had an offseason to think about how to "improve" upon it? Mullen is the only constant among all DC's and we know how he "knows it all" when it comes to football.

Nope. You could say Wilson's first year was a continuation of his and Diaz start. And again you can make a case, especially with Scoring Defense, that Collins's second year was better.

The best game of Diaz's career at MSU was Auburn 2010. That was the only time all season Scootin Newton was shut down.
