James Willis ... UL Defensive Coordinator

[Bigbuf]

Your correct I was implying that when HUD leaves he would replace him. Not saying that I want him to or that he could. Just asked what the board thought about him being a head coach.

I like Houston grads thought..lets see how he does as DC. Also like VO,s opinion that he doesnt have one. Just a question.

The guy has been around some big programs. I hope he works out as DC.

All that matters right now is we take it up a couple of notches on defense this coming year and the man recruits according to his reputation.

Responding to multiple reports that UL planned to announce the hiring of James Willis as its replacement for ousted defensive coordinator Greg Stewart sometime next week, Cajuns head coach Mark Hudspeth would only say Friday that the former Texas Tech defensive coordinator is "one of the final candidates" and that "no agreement" has been reached.

HUD downplayed how much willis had to do with this class, but I don't believe him. Maybe he meant he hasn't...yet

This should improve our defense to go with the high potent offense. Time to win a conference championship.

Should? How 'bout WILL.


I don't think people understand just how much of an upgrade is happening here.


This is HUGE.

if we get a defense with our offense and start putting up some of those boise st type blowouts, thats when people start paying attention. Boise st didnt just win all their games, they beat the big boys but dominated their conference foes over and over again.

Besides good coaching

The secret to Boise's success was home-and-home all the time, few exceptions.
