The DC is going to be the South Alabama coach, Kane Wommack. I don't know much about him either, but what I have seen so far is encouraging. He was a semi-finalist for the Broyles award when he was the DC at Indiana when CKD was there as OC. The talking heads are saying it was a good hire.
So... the next hurdle is can they keep the players that are currently on the roster, particularly Caleb Downs. If Downs decides to stay, I will feel better about everything. If he chooses to go, I can't blame him, but I am going to be a little uneasy until I see how these guys can recruit.
Right now I am cautiously optimistic that this situation can work out and we keep rolling. But we will need at least a full 1 year cycle to know for sure. CDB can win next year with the roster he inherited. It will be critical to see what his recruiting class looks like next year.
If we end up winning that UGA game on 9/28 a lot of folks are going to be on suicide watch.

Yeah, I just read about the likelihood of Wommack coming on board as the DC. If Downs stays, I think most others will stay. Popcorn at the ready.
