And among the constants in that time since 2009 - LBer Coach Joe Vitt, DL Coach Bill Johnson...

Willis, who enjoyed a seven-year NFL playing career with three teams is a 14-year coaching veteran who joins the Saints after spending the past two seasons as defensive coordinator/inside linebackers coach at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette.

Brian Young enters his first season in charge of the club’s outside linebackers. In his seventh season as a member of the coaching staff, Young helped Assistant Head Coach/Linebackers Joe Vitt tutor the Saints linebackers from 2012-14 after breaking into the ranks as a coaching assistant from 2009-11.

Now about Bill Johnson, you may have a point, but we brought in 2 new LB coaches and Vitt is the "assistant Head Coach" now.
