That was meant to say Hopson, sorry.

Gibson is actually a solid safety coach as well.. something I wish they would’ve tried earlier in his brief career. Still, wish the man best of luck, and hopefully either GERG takes over the LB’s, or we grab a solid coach after the bowls are over with.

Actually, I should take back what I said. He was DC(and I think a DB’s coach at one point) at Southern Miss and apparently real good there too. RR should have initially hired him as a DB’s coach and made a better hire at LB’s. Gibson should just be a recruiting coordinator or something for the program.

I’m waiting to pass judgment on Gibson — he wasn’t exactly given a ton of talent to work with. If he can’t put together a good secondary in 2011, then I think we’d have to look at other candidates. He’s a solid recruiter also, something that wouldn’t be in our best interests to give up.

I’m so glad he’s leaving, all this garbage about him coaching good linebackers at Southern Miss I thought was ridiculous. I’d like to see Tony go as well, but realistically that is not going to happen.
