I am wondering if Saban new about these moves before hiring Capers? I thought it was odd that we added a new defensive coach without any leaving. This was kept very quiet.

Pretty much has to be one of two scenarios, as far as I can see it...

1) Saban saw Muschamp's departure coming, and that it was directly related to bringing Capers here in the first place.

2) Saban and Muschamp have issues (personally or D-philosophy related) that wasn't publicized which led Nick to hire Capers. Muschamp, seeing the writing on the wall, accepts the Auburn offer.

I'm guessing it was the first one.  If it was the second one, Muschamp would never have had a chance to coach the Dolphins.  He worked with Saban at LSU and Michigan St.

It's always possible for people who have worked well together in the past to develop problems later on, but I agree with ya here...the first scenario seems most likely.

Then this raises the question of why Muschamp left? He is still going to be the defensive coordinator and now at the college level. I can't imagine Auburn is going to give him more money.

Also, what do you guys think now that our D rides solely on the brain of Dom Capers?

For some reason that makes me very nervous.

I thought Richard Smith was our DC? Ahhh, I hate it when teams invent all kinds of weird new titles, totally screwing with the sense of hierarchy ;-)

Although, with the number of "coaches" we have, some creative titling is probably a must...

From what I understand it was a co-duty. Smith formulated the gameplan and Muschamp called the actual plays (or was it vice versa).

In regards to the Capers comment I have no worries. The guy is a defensive genius. Just becuase he had a rough time in Texas doesn't mean anything. The guy had the whole show in his hands then, not just the defense.
