That defense is going to get a heck of a lot better...and fast. Fantastic hire!

Michigan can't get any worse defensively, so no place to go but up.

I know Greg is a solid D-coordinator but I think he made a critical mistake late in the game vs. Pittsburgh by not rushing at least 4 against a depleted Steeler o-line. Gave Ben too much pocket time to beat him.

Dang - that is a good hire.

he didn't do much at ND, good hire but nothing earth shattering. I'd be a good DC with Suggs, Lewis, Reed, and Ngata....

He did a pretty good job as Florida's DC though. Now you can argue that Florida had some great players too. But he's not signing on at Purdue, or Minnesota. He's at MICHIGAN. They can get the kind of players he needs to do a good job, even if he were only average.

Dang...was hoping he might replace Norm when he retires.
