    He was the DC at northwestern state when we hired him & his defense was pretty terrible but created turnovers and you know how much our previous coach loved turnovers

    He brought him in as defensive assistant ..When lucus took over as DC he had the greatest linebacker core UL has ever seen which hid a lot of his coaching inabilities that .. when they left his true abilities were shown

    Point being he wasn’t brought here to run our defense. He got the position under circumstances. He was brought here to coach LB’ers.
