It's official: Lou is our guy
#80
Before Gus Bradley masterminded the Legion of Boom in Seattle he was the LB coach of the an average TB Bucs team. Before that his only stint at DC was with North Dakota State.

Before Marvin Lewis was the defensive coordinator of arguably one of the best defenses ever he was a LB coach for an average Steelers team and had never been a DC before.

Before Todd Wash became the DC in Jacksonville of one of the best defenses in the NFL he was a defensive line coach. His last sting as a DC was 10 years prior at Missouri Southern State.

Matt Eberflus who turned around a bad Indy defense last year was previously a LB coach in Dallas who had pretty average success up until the year before he to to Indy. His last stint as a DC before that was 10 years prior at Missouri.

I can keep going finding guys who were pretty much unheard of before they became DC's and ended up having success even if their position coach work was pretty unheralded. Obviously there are plenty who flamed out too, but this idea that it's a bad hire has no real basis in fact because frankly no one knows how it will go.
