I am wondering who is available and who people would like to see brought in to be DC?
 
Shane Burnham .. I think he would be excellent

I'm for this idea. The defense wasn't bad when given a chance. The 3-4 had some growing pains, but I still think it's the right way to go in this conference.
 
I heard UNC has a good DC.

Honestly would have no issue with PR. Keep him around in some way and keep players happy.

Would definitely be cool and I'm sure he would take it but that would then result in players listening to two different coaches. Anytime philosophies differed, players would be torn.

Why on Earth would he take it? Has this ever happened in the history of CFB?
 
I would like us to target Tyson Summers from Colorado State. Read that he is a good recruiter with Florida ties. Was previously at Central Florida.
 
I honestly have no idea what I would want in a DC here. I don't know what it really would take to slow down the Big 12, or if it's reasonably possible at all. I want something showing more results than what we have had the past 2 or 3 seasons, given that this season was better, but I simply don't know how we can or would get to that point.
 
Making Paul the DC would be the worst coaching decision in ISU Football history. If Campbell does that (which he won't) he should probably be let go.

You can't have the old guy around when trying to instill your philosophies. That is just crazy.
 
CPR's first few defenses created a lot of turnovers. This has really dropped off. I'd like to see a staff that stresses turning the ball over while maintaining sound tackling.

We have not had much of an identity, but if we have had one it is Linebacker University. I like the 3-4 because we can recruit good linebackers and tweeners. Give me three big bodies for the DLine and aggressive linebacker play. Maybe there is a Linebacker Coach, former NFL player that would be interested in a DC gig.
 
If our defensive backs could catch a ball, we would have a lot more turnovers.
