Collins- Good DC. I think 1A\1B was his brainchild and when it hurt us against Bama and Ole Miss in 2014 Dan got pissed and let him go. Good DC. Dumb idea.

Manny II- Good DC who got distracted at the end with the Dan to Miami stuff and ended up in Miami. Without Dan.

Sirmon- LOL WTF?

I suspect Dan had the most input on Torbush, Wilson, and Sirmon. Maybe Collins to a lesser degree but I think a lot of it was "if your idea doesn't work and costs us some games your ass is gone" type of deal.
Manny 1 was good because we had NFL players on all levels of that D. Collins was good couldve been great but he got tired of Dans shit and was done before the EB of the 14 season. Manny 2 was garbage so was Sirmon.
