boomtho: Many people know much more about schemes than I do (including our new DC, hopefully!) so I'll opine more generally. First, I'd like our DC to actually be a plus recruiter. Kaufman was basically a non-factor, and we've seen how that gap in our coaches' recruiting ability translated into a lack of depth and top-end defensive talent. We need a DC to come in and re-engage on that aspect to really drive momentum, especially short term.
Second, I'd like our DC to have experience in a conference that faces a wide variety of offensive schemes.
