[QUOTE="TromboneJacket, post: 852749, member: 2580"] And I agree that it shouldn’t be either/or, but it sounds like we opened the wallet (by GT Athletics standards) for the OC job and probably don’t have the resources to get a new DC who is likely to do a better job next year with our defense than Collins will if he assumes the DC role. I honestly don’t know what happened (specifically, other than bad coaching in general) to make our defense decline like they have, and I’m sure Collins was shocked too. When we first hired CGC, Temple fans warned us that Patenaude would be a dud, but by all accounts Thacker did a good job at Temple. Temple doesn’t get better talent than we do, so there’s no reason that most of the same coaches should have put out a significantly worse defense than they did before. Next season is Collins’ last opportunity to buy himself more time, so I imagine that he feels that if he’s going to go down, he wants to at least take things into his own hands with regards to defense, his specialty. In the event that we win enough games for him to stick around (I’m guessing 6+), he’ll still need to find a long term solution that allows him to take his hand off the wheel on defense. But right now, he doesn’t have the luxury of thinking long term. [/QUOTE]
