So now that Grantham is out, and it seems like Pruitt isn't happening, how do people feel about Ansley?

He was DC under Pruitt at Tennessee, and DB coach at Bama while Pruitt was the DC, so I imagine he could be Pruitt-lite until Pruitt's NCAA issues get cleared up?

Ansley definitely has coaching chops. Otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get his foot in the door in the NFL with no prior experience at that level and then get hired by another franchise after the UTk situation blew up.

It's just a question of whether his ability to coach DBs translates to an ability to run an entire defense. I'd also have some concerns that Saban would do the same thing he did to Golding and force a career DB coach to coach inside linebackers.
