New DC

Scott Symons (SMU DC)has had multiple top 25 defenses which is impressive and is a finalist for the Broyles Award which goes to the top assistant coach. Thanks for mentioning his name.  I think he would be a home run hire for sure.

Bob Diaco was a semi finalist in 2011 for Broyles award and won it it 2012.  He was more of a foul ball hire.

This the same coordinator whose defense has given up 21 points in the first quarter tonight against Clemson?  :confucius

I understand.  Just think that what Symons has done at SMU of all places with his defense is impressive.

My money’s on Symons. Lots of rumors swirling about him and it’s a Texas connection that Rhule favors. Good get too. Would make sense the announcement would be delayed until after their game on Saturday. 

His defense is getting crushed right now against Clemson, so this must be true. If he’s coming to Nebraska, it’s time to start regressing.

As soon as one is on someone's Nebraska list, they perform like it!

Clemson is going to hate to see him go.

To me, it often seems when an unusual result occurs, we later find out a coach had been interviewing around the time of the outlier performance.  Kind of similar to players being off due to too much attention being on off-the-field stuff.

He’s getting cheaper! 
 

Part of the plan!

I would put zero stock in this game.  SMU sucks.  Clemson has NFL guys all over the place.

But they knew, that he knew the strain...Didn't have to know his name....The strain was enough.

Obviously you guys just comment and don’t watch the game. SMU defense was fine most of the game as the offense cost them this game in the first quarter. It could have been a whole lot worse.

Eh. I saw SMU give up a ton of big plays. I’d also argue that Clemson’s stout defense created two turnovers, SMU didn’t just give it away. Maybe the interception should have been thrown away. If anything, SMU’s offense kept them in it, scoring more points on Clemson‘s first string than any team did this year. 
 

Sure, SMU’s defense was “fine”. I guess that’s the standard we’re trying to achieve now.

I actually agree.  I just like to dig.  They played reasonable.  It’s Clemson.
