Sal coached DL and LBs. The DL and LBs won those two national titles for Bama. Sal Sunseri is going to help us win games this season. Couple that with our explosive offense and you've got a surprise team in college football come fall 2012.

Not saying he won't help, but let's not get carried away with this.

Carried away with what? I'm just referring to anyone who thinks our defense will be a pushover this fall just because it's the players first year in the system.

It takes awhile to get the 3-4 down. They're probably going to struggle at first.

Doesn't mean we're ready to be compared to a national championship caliber defense.

I agree. Show me someone who's comparing us to a national championship team first and then we'll bring up that argument.

Implying Sunseri is the reason for that national championship caliber defense is pushing it, IMO. He's good, but they also had lots of play makers and still had to be put in the right positions by the defensive coordinator.
