DC would be bloody amazing 

Lots of hypothetical but we won't know until the new coach is hired.

Keep in mind that 55 years old with my fellow black folks is more like 35 IJS.

That is only a question Leavitt could answer. Think he probably doesn’t want to leave Tampa Bay are because of his family 

Which leads right back to Sanders hiring Leavitt as DC. And, think about it, Norvell gets called up to the SEC, Sanders goes to FSU and BOOM! Leavitt is back in the position that many are clamoring for now. 🤘

I haven't followed CJL's career because CSH took over when I first started at USF.

I hear Jim's defenses were great at USF.. is this a fair statement? You tell me.

I know he hasn't had the opportunity to be a HC again since USF.

What has happened when he was DC at the following schools for only a season or 2?
(Colorado, Oregon, FAU, SMU)

2015–2016 Colorado (DC/LB)
2017–2018 Oregon (DC/LB)
2019 Florida State (Analyst)
2020 Florida Atlantic (DC)
2021 SMU (DC)

Was he fired because he isn't a great DC or was it for other reasons all together? If it was because he isn't a very good DC, is that someone we want to be brought to USF as DC just because he was first coach at USF who coached at a much different time in college sports at a time when he was a much younger man?

I'm just asking questions for those of you who know. Thanks!

He basically saved Mike MacIntyre's job at Colorado before they eventually fired MacIntyre. Haven't followed him after that as much.

If true we will have it made. He will make sure he doesn’t fail at USF so he doesn’t mess up his chances at FSU whenever if that job becomes available. Don’t sleep on FSU’s Norvel though. He seems to be a heck of a coach and was able to handle the pressure at FSU.

He'll probably have a special out clause for the FSU job if and when that opens.  So long as he wins and wins quickly I could care less.
