[personal] [Husker] Who says you can't changedefensive coordinators mid-season?

[Brown, Laura (LLU)]

The name just brought back a lot of good memmories especially seeing he
was a LB coach.  :-)

I'll throw a name into the hat. He is the DC and Linebackers coach at a 
small college in Nebraska and his name is Tony Harper.
second year in the program and has the team headed in the right
direction.

	You know, that's an excellent question.  I don't pretend to know
much
	    

about
  

	all the different coordinators around the country, but I've
always
	    

felt some
  

	of the best hires are guys who did really well at a lesser
program or
	    

a
  

	lesser position from the pros (like pelini @ LB coach).  I think
if
	    

you go
  

	out and try to find a guy that's been really successful at the
major
	    

D1
  

	level as a coordinator, he's either going to cost too much or be
	    

looking for
  

	a HC job somewhere.
	 
	For instance, find the 'mid-major' team with the best defense or
maybe
	there's 'specialty' coach (ex. Linebacker coach) in the pro's
who
	    

seems to
  

	have 'the stuff'.
	 
	Fact of the matter, I've heard a couple names that sound
intriguing.
	    

Kevin
  

	Steele and Bob Davie just to name a couple.  Heck, I've heard
Lloyd
	    

Carr
  

	might be looking for a job this year (kidding).
	 
	I've always been a pretty big fan of USC Linebacker coach Ken
Norton
	    

Jr.
  

	(probably because I like the 9ers).  Also, say what you want
about Jim
	    

Mora
  

	Jr, but the man flat out can coach a defense.
	 
	That's about all I can come up with in my head.  No inside
knowledge
	    

or
  

	anything, just a few.
