I've said before I think it's more likely to be Tucker. He makes sense in a lot of ways.
He is a long time Saban guy.
He is a DB coach, which all of Saban's DCs started as.
He has had excellent results at both the college and NFL levels.
He is older, which is the way Kirby went with His OC choice.
His name is super easy to work into limericks.

I believe they to I like tucker better he can help Kirby he has a lot experience witch will help Kirby. Mel o Mel where can he be
Lupoi makes much more sense. Young, energetic, and a great recruiter. Kirby will be the one truly running our defense. Therefore he needs someone young who he can mold into his image. Yes he hired an experience offensive Cordinator which is exactly what any good young defensive minded head coach would do. Of course on offense he would want an experienced play caller with a vast background. Whereas on defense it would make much more sense to bring in someone who is willing to take instruction and who will listen to his ideas. I would not imagine Mel Tucker would very much enjoy Kirby Smart running his defensive meetings every week.
100.99999% who else knows Sabans Bama defensse no a whole lot of people. Fit the bill eather.
I'd be all for it. Saban doesn't like His coaches making lateral moves though.
If Kirby offered both positions, I'm guessing Tucker would be the DC. I think it's unlikely Lupoi would come unless He was offered a higher position than He has at Bama. Maybe Co-DC or Assistant HC and recruiting coordinator. Adding both Coley and Lupoi would be great for recruiting.
Saban has said He doesn't like His coaches making lateral moves. He has talked several out of making them, including Kirby in 2011.
I still think Kirby is more likely to give Tucker the DC position, but I won't be disappointed if it's Lupoi.
I respect Saban and his methods. He'll probably go down in history as the greatest college football coach, but I don't like him.
I respect him I don't like him as a person tho but the more I think about he got real soft when talking about Kirby. It's worring my Bama friends. It's like Kirby was like a sun to him.
