I like Roof, loved him as a player and wished he had more success in his first stint as DC. Hopefully, it will work out better this time.
Auburn's D's were GT 2010-2012 bad in 2009 and 2010. However, UCF's D in 2011 was good, and PSU's D this past year was pretty good. So, who knows, maybe Chizik was more involved during the Auburn years.
And he's had a great deal of success in the 14 years since he left Tech. I seriously don't understand the negativity about this.
I'll take 2-1 right now.
Hasn't brought in a recruit above 3 stars since 2009 in 5 years at freaking Auburn and Penn State.
Will this hire split folks the way the CPJ hire did? Stay tuned ...

Initial reaction at work
"Solid record of beating UGA" = 1 good defensive performance and a 2-1 record because of the Jasper Sanks miracle?
Riiiiight.
it has too...those of us who remember him in 99 as a DC...remember. Some of the worst defensive efforts I have ever seen, to the point where GOL said he is taking over the D. Sound familiar?
Yeah, I was at a lot of those games, including some victories over our instate rival. He won the Broyles award in 2000. He has also had some impressive success in the 14 years since leaving Tech. Sound familiar?
Now watch Bill Curry get the AD job...
