From the PickSix Podcast:

“I’ve seen some fans online overreact and think they need to get some other name. And that’s honestly I think that’s a tip to Matt Rhule’s ability to get Tony White. Like that turned out to be a success and people’s perspective is ‘why don’t you do that again?”

And it doesn’t mean their Defense is going to be better and in fact I would argue statistically it won’t be. The area where it needs to get better is in takeaways. They need to create takeaways. And that might be something John Butler can get done.
