If it's real I'm real curious about how Kiffin will do.I just hope he brings Chief back.Don't believe Monte can do what he does.Also being fired by Davis is not a definite.Look what Davis has done to Raiders by not letting the coach do his job.Davis has one big ego and I'll never understand why he hires coaches instead of doing it himself.His coaches are "in name only".Anyway I still won't believe it 'til the possible news conference Monday.

Chavis with 20 years experience an rated in top 15.I didn't even know Tampa Bay still had a team.And yes,most people say I'm crazy.

I wish him the best of luck because he will need it, that is if he has to live up to the standards for our HC discussed on VN over the last few years.

Tell me your joking about Chavis being better than Monte.

Well okay. That's the beauty of this board, we can agree to disagree!

I know that this has nothing to do with his coaching abilities, but I am anxious to see what folks come up with (especially the Bamers where I live) to make fun of. I don't think I will hear any Krispy Kreme jokes or "hey, your coach is fat" comments. Now if I can't come up with a good come back, I can just say "well, our coach looks a lot better than yours". LOL:)

In all seriousness please give me a brief synopsis of Monte.I had never heard of him to my recollection 'til Kiffin's name came up for HC.Monte may be great but I just have no knowleg ofit but am always open to learning.Lack of knowledge is terrible but unwilling to learn is worse.

With all due respect to the Chief, Monte and Coach O will have our D even better. Monte is the best defensive coach in the NFL, I think he could handle the SEC

Sounds like a good hire....and with some potential side benefits for the defensive side of the ball with Monte.

Monte Kiffin is the mastermind behind the Tampa 2 scheme, which is a slight modification of Tony Dungy's Cover 2. His defensive philosophy has several hallmarks.

Speed over size and strength. Coordinators that employ Kiffin-style defenses will often replace linebackers with safeties and linemen with linebackers in order to put more speed on the field, an approach known as spinning down.

In particular, linebackers must be able to cover receivers; in the Tampa 2 scheme, one linebacker frequently drops back into pass protection, turning what looks like a Cover 2 defense into a Cover 3.

Kiffin's defenses also employ large but quick defensive/nose tackles as run-stoppers. Preventing scores over preventing yardage. A Kiffin coordinator doesn't care how many yards an offense gains, as long as the team doesn't score, an approach known as bend-but-don't-break.

Multiple defenses from one look. Kiffin-style defenses try to use the same personnel (or the same kind of personnel) at all times, so that the offense cannot adjust its play call based on the alignment of the defensive personnel.
Attacking and causing turnovers. Kiffin-style defenses focus on getting the ball away from the offense by stripping the ball away from the ball carrier or reading the quarterback to make an interception. The risk is that if the ball is not stripped or intercepted, then the ball carrier on offense has a better chance of gaining more yards or scoring; the reward is that the offensive drive is stopped without a score more often, frequently giving good field position.


First things first...Lane needs to get those recruits back into the fold.
