Shout out to DA. He was a darn good defensive coordinator.

As I used to say during his tenure, some guys are lieutenants and others are generals. You have to be a general to be a leader of men in football. DA was an excellent lieutenant and coordinated the defense during a period of resurgence for that unit (2017-21) versus what it was the previous period of time (2014-16). But he wasn't and isn't a general, personality-wise.

Plus, other details since his firing that have come to light, mainly the lack of mandated dynamic stretches before games, are just baffling to me.
