The avg overall defense ranking for the conference is 83.2. There is one Big team ranked in the top 60, UT @ #14. I guess it's possible that the other nine teams all have shitty recruiters and terrible DCs but it's probably more likely that the insane offenses we have to face over the 9 game schedule is a major factor. Give Cosh some credit for eff's sake. We were rough ridin' atrocious last year. We brought in some solid new guys and now we're an average defense in the best offensive BCS conference. Oh, and we're 10-2. What's the best record for a VK coached defense over the past few years? How many of his HCs reaped the benefits of his jimmies and joes and is currently still employed?
I dont think Cosh is the devil, but I would certainly like to see him leave and a better D-Coord come in. And VK is definitely to blame for his team's 86th ranked offense, 105th ranked scoring offense. Definitely his fault the coach got fired
I think we can all agree VK is better than CC. That still doesn't change the fact CC proved his defensive plays are more effective with better players this year. He doesn't have the gems that other teams have. Also, VK's total defense this year is ranked 6th in the nation. Hopefully Cosh gets the job; just hope we get someone better.
Just seen this posted on TOB...
Whether you think Cosh is a good coach or not, the fact is that he's our DC because he's settling. He can't get a better job, that's why he's here. If he sucks next year, we're not happy. If he does well, he'll leave. I rather him leave now.
