With Hue's copious experience with Offensive skill players, it would seem like DBs would be a fairly simple transition.  Who better to coach coverage players on when and where to expect receivers to make their breaks, cue tips on a double move, etc., than a man who's taught Offensive players how to defeat defensive players?

Not quite as sure about the whole "DC" thing for Hue, though.  Not sure what his experience/mastery of line play is.  If he did assume the DC position, he'd better be armed with a damn good set of LB and DL coaches.

Also, I completely agree with you about looking to Vance Joseph for the DC position.  Our coverage/secondary woes all seemed to begin, after his departure for Miami.
