If the Legion of Doom was not already taken it would sound great to me. I hope it works out and I hope that we will be keeping our DL coach as well.

What a dumb idea. It's the same as when you have two quarterbacks, if you do, you don't have one. Someone has to be in charge. Now if it's just semantics, like the way Foley made it seem like McElwain was actually paying two million dollars of his buyout, fine. But the idea of co-coordinators is ludicrous.

In Zach s latest article it says Robinson is the only coach on the defensive side being retained

Gonna have to agree here. I mean, if we look at past precedent like the 2006 UF team with co-defensive coordinators Charlie Strong and Greg Mattison, that defense was TERRIBLE.

This seems like an incredible amount of handwringing over a position coach, great recruiter or not.

Sure is. I think everyone is just anxious to get the staff in place.

With all the T-Rob knob slobbing going on around here, he better pull in some top notch recruits, on both sides of the ball, if he's retained.

Exactly. Even all of Muschamp's defenses basically had two coordinators. Him and Dan Quinn, then him and Durkin.

It's not at all comparable to having two QB's. At all. Drawing up plays and executing plays are totally different.

Recruiting is hard work.
