Assuming Dan does what is necessary, who are some good DC's out there that we have a legit shot at?

Certainly no thanks to Adam Fuller. He’s bad. I do agree with you that there isn’t a lot of elite DCs out there. Asher from Texas gets very positive reviews and is well thought of but they didn’t have a very good defense this year either but lots of people speak highly of him.You want Adam Fuller? I think pacos choice is the young hot little thang running around out there. Not sure who is available but im not sure if you get a huge upgrade over Grantham. There are just not a lot of elite DCs out there that are currently DCs.... You have to reach like we did for Pruitt. If you cant find a proven dc do you think UF should "roll the dice" on an unproven but high potential guy like we did with pruitt?
I watched his defense enough at Memphis. It was like watching an old lady try to fill her water jug at the water spicket while not knowing she had a strainer bowl.You want Adam Fuller?

Strong back would be a no-brainer...doubt he would come though...but man, if he did, talk about getting the band back together...whew...
Again. If Strong haven't coached at Florida, not a single one of you would mention him.
I also don't know if his defensive schemes have updated for modern offenses.

and apparently, we’re all gonna sit here and just act like it isn’t a big deal that pass started this thread....Assuming Dan does what is necessary, who are some good DC's out there that we have a legit shot at?

I agree with a lot of this. Offenses are being favored in both college and the NFL. I don’t ever see defenses really being dominant anymore which is fine, they just can’t be as bad as ours. I do struggle with the amount of defensive pass interference calls that seem to be called these days. Way too many calls for ticky tack stuffThisthisthisthisthis.
Give me the young guy with new ideas.
Honestly, football is all offense now and you will never see another truly stifling defense (unless they adjust the rules). This is due to the restrictions on tackling and targeting and all that. Defenses aren't allowed to be intimidating any more. No longer can you punish a WR for going across the middle, or blow up a RB, or, well, touch a QB.
Having said that, all these old timey DC's had defenses that succeeded because they did those exact things. They don't seem to be able to adjust to a post-intimidation era style. Would like to see a young guy, with some new ideas, get a shot. If he can get them lined up on time and know their assignments, he'd already be better than Grantham.

Shannon has always been a bad DC. Even at Miami.

It will help more than we will ever know. Lol or whatever that line was back then.Shannon has always been a bad DC. Even at Miami.
Many of you who say that Strong sucks havent posted who you DO want.
A year ago SaturdayDownSouth listed the top 25 defensive play callers, the list follows. But Grantham is #9. His stock probably came down some after this year, but still - Can we upgrade the position by running him off? Just asking.
[/QUOTEMy take on Grantham is this yes he is a very knowledge DC . Just not at that level anymore for a program like Florida that strives to play for a championship. He is just not good enough to get you over that hump .The SDS Top 25: Ranking the best defensive play-callers in college football

I don't think our defensive players deserve Adrian Peterson style abuse.Jim Leavitt???
Leavitt as the DC, Mike Leach as the OC, Mangino as TE coach, and we'll find room on the basketball for Billy Gillespie and of course Bob Knight.I don't think our defensive players deserve Adrian Peterson style abuse.

Honest answer LG. I will join you on the podium of those who don't know but aren't afraid to admit it.............jimI'm not familiar with young, up and coming assistants ready to step into a DC role. JfJ posted a bunch; of that group, I think I liked the DC at Liberty the best, but WTF do I know?
2018 = #9 Defense in the Nation
2019 - #7 Defense in the Nation.
2020 - What a moronic loser, fire his ass....
PS
Recruiting? UF's top 4 rated 2021 recruits are #2 CB, #5 SDE, #8 WDE, #6 S.
So obviously no decent recruits want to play for that know nothing chump... 😏
Carry on....... 🤣
