Title: Who would you like to see as DC for Auburn perhaps in 2012
Post by: Godfather on November 28, 2011, 12:12:53 PM
Can we talk about potential replacements for Roof?

My short list would be...

Mike Singletary (LB/ Asst Head Coach) Minnesota Vikings
Roy Anderson (Defensive Asst, Secondary) Baltimore Ravens
Dave Wommack (Defensive Cord.) Arkansas St.
Tracy Rocker (DL Coach) Tennessee Titans <edit added>

I honestly would love to see Rocker come back as the DC.  Assuming he also coaches the DL, and can get a good LB and DB coach to come with him, his fire and intensity would be a huge plus imo.
Also, Joe Whitt Jr. would be worth a look.

Many Diaz, Jim Leavitt, Tracey Rocker or any other mean mother fuckers that would put the fear of god in our D and light a fire under their ass.  I haven't seen an ass chewing on a player since Rocker was there, unless Boluware is chewing out a special teams player or someone committed a personal foul.   

Anyone remember this guy?  (http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2010/0708/pg2_g_zorich_b1_200.jpg)  He once said in a SI article that he wanted to hit a QB so hard that his helmet rolled 10 yards down the field with his head in it.  I want players with that kind of mentality.

Lots of steroids make you say things like that.

So does being mean. 

"Good" -- Kevin Gogan's respone to being asked about having the reputation of being one of the leagues dirtiest players.

EDIT:  It's football dammit.  You are supposed to be mean and want knock someone out with every hit.

Yes, having Rocker back as the DC would be f'n great. This guy would demand complete control of the D and make them the meanest sombitches in CFB. I also like the Wommack guy. From the little I have seen, the guy knows his shit and would also create an mean ass D.

Dick Bumpas.....close enough name to Butkus for me!  And could you imagine a mustache like that walking around on our sidelines?

Evidence inadmissible, unless one of them happens to be a Defensive Coordinator and carries a playbook in their back pocket.

Bumpas DC from TCU

2004 first year at TCU - 28th in the country in rush D
2005 - 12th in country in scoring D
2006 - 5th in the country in scoring D
2007 - 16th in the country in scoring D
2008 - 2nd in the country in scoring D
2009 - 6th in the country in scoring D
2010 - 1st in the country in scoring D

2011 - dealing with the same situation Roof dealt with this year at Auburn having to play freshmen and sophomores all over with only 4 starters returning just like Auburn...currently 36th in the country in scoring D(Now THAT'S how a young defense should perform under good coaching).

other accolades:

*finalist each of the last three seasons for the Frank Broyles Award

*coached Tejay Johnson who one of three finalists for the 2010 Jim Thorpe Award, recognizing the nation's top defensive back.

*mentored defensive end Jerry Hughes into being a two-time consensus All-American and the 2009 recipient of the Ted Hendricks Award and Lott Trophy. Hughes, who had never played on defense until arriving at TCU, was also a finalist for the Bronko Nagurski Trophy and Rotary Lombardi Award.

*mentored 1990 Lombardi Award winner Chris Zorich.

*many of his players made all American teams throughout his 30 year career

He's a native from Arkansas where he graduated. He's coached at Arkansas, Tennessee, service academies, Notre Dame etc.

Currently he would be a steal as Gary Patterson only makes 1.8 mil a year at TCU as head coach. No doubt Bumpas makes much less, probably around 300-400k at most.

 I want my DC to be nasty, hardnosed, a little wild eyed crazy, a mutha fuckin Billy Badass...That's Kevin Greene. The players will reflect the coaches. I want 11 Nick Fairley / Tracy Rocker / Kevin Greene / Ray Lewis / Willie Wyatt / Warren Sapp / Mark Baron / Takeo Spikes / Dwight Freeneys out there fuckin up the offensive gameplan all day, every game...not giving a fuckin shit what the offense is doing...3&Outs on Offense? Perfect, it'll give the Defense more time to fuck shit up for the opponent's offense. The ONLY Defenses that somewhat compare to what I want are LSU's and bama's.
