Message: [QUOTE="FfldCntyFan, post: 4132843, member: 71"] Some of the doomsayers may need to calm down a little. 1 - hypothetically, if a college team loses its DC to another job do they immediately dismiss the defensive position coaches? Of course not. While we may not end up with who Mora initially felt would be DC, we still can end up with an excellent hire (perhaps even a better hire than the initial target). 2 - This really isn't dissimilar to recruiting players. It well could have been a "who says yes first gets the job" and the target decided to wait to see what other jobs opened up. It could have been that once other coaches started changing jobs, the target decided to see how things fell out. Regardless, there is no reason to believe we cannot land a young, intelligent, ambitious DC. 3 - I believe that it is very likely that the defensive philosophy the Mora wants to run is what we will run regardless of who our DC is.
