my thoughts on Gary Gibbs

ok we know how he has been here with limited talent so i did a little research on his past jobs to see if we might show improvement with talent improvement
in 2002-2005 he was a linebacker coach for Dallas in his first NFL job
He did real well at that role in Dallas, in my opinion.In 2001 He was DC at LSU
and Gibbs' defensive unit finished the year ranked 21st nationally in rushing yards allowed and also led the SEC in interceptions with 18, picking off at least two passes in six of 12 games. In 2000 While at Georgia, his defense ranked 19th in the nation in total defense and 12th in scoring defense, allowing just 18 points-per-game.1989-1994 he was head coach of Oklahoma During his six seasons as the head coach at Oklahoma (1989-94), Gibbs guided the Sooners to three bowl games and an overall record of 44-23-2. In his first three seasons after taking over the program from Barry Switzer, Gibbs continued the school's pattern of success, improving Oklahoma's record each season, from 7-4 as a rookie head coach, to 8-3 in the second year. A 9-3 season in 1991, his third year at the helm, included a 48-14 win over Virginia in the 1991 Gator Bowl. In 1981, Gibbs was named the Sooners defensive coordinator, and he held that post until taking over as head coach in 1989. During his tenure as Oklahoma's defensive coordinator, the Sooners captured the 1985 national title, and their defense led the nation in total defense three straight years (1985-87) and twice finished first in rushing defense (1986 and 1987).
ok through my research i have come to the conclusion that Gibbs has to be better than he has shown us. He has had success everywhere else. maybe just maybe we give him so good young players and he has success here.
