Doesn't sound like that's going to be on Chizik"s resume...reads like he got outcoached.

Dude, how many boards are you on?
Very veey few DCs have good numbers playing with a high paced spread offense. Fedora is an extremely hard offensive guy to put up good defensive numbers with
Appears that Gene Chizik has been hired to be the new defensive coordinator. A little history.
Was the DC when Texas won National Championship.
Was DC when Auburn went undefeated in 2004.
Was HC at Auburn when they won national Championship a few years ago.
Knows about winning championships.
Hope he works out.

He did, not hiding that fact. But again, I think it says more about Briles than it does Chizik. Most coaches will toss in new concepts for a bowl game. Almost none will completely overhaul their offense, let alone succeed at it.
Put it like this: Northwestern had a very solid defense on the year. And when Debord showed them things that they had seen on tape and prepared for, they typically handled it. But when we showed them something new, we gutted them... as explained here: Anatomy of a Beatdown 3. (sidenote: this whole series is very good, would recommend reading if you haven't yet)
A prepared defense can be a good one. An unprepared defense is meat, especially when your personnel isn't talented enough to just line up and win individual battles. Now consider that Baylor changed the entire scheme rather than just adding a package. NC's defense was dead in the water. Their only hope was for Baylor to make mistakes (largely, they didn't) or for the NC offense to match them (they tried but came up short).

Chizick makes $700k @ UNC.
Of the 2, which appears more of a Tennessee hire?
