[QUOTE="strong90, post: 316074, member: 2326"] ...and it was called Kiffin's O. Yes, CPJ has overall responsibility for the entire team's success, but CTR owns our defense and I'm sure that he would say so himself. CTR's experience as a former player, DC and HC suggest that he wasn't hired to be an up-and-coming protege' or a no-named surrogate. Interestingly, there are some similarities with the assumed roles of both CPJ and Saban. CPJ is an offensive guru who runs the O and Saban is a defense-first coach who calls the shots (Kirby Smart just implemented the playbook). They both hire coordinators to own the other side of the ball and both limit their influence to giving overall guidance and direction. For example, CPJ was applauded when he publicly called on CTR for a more aggressive D, and Saban was heralded for his on-air admonition "Run the damned ball, Lane!" As to the thread title, nothing tells me that CTR's scheme is designed to be "unleashed." What needs to be unleashed is CPJ's influence on CTR's defense. [/QUOTE]
