Seems that way.

Now, that he won't be their HC, he probably won't stay there as DC.

Source : #Oregon Ducks recruits believe defensive Coordinator Jim Leavitt will not stay

What a toxic recruiting situation that must be. Oregon would be best served by letting him go now if he wants rather than forcing him to stay through the bowl game.

If Cristobal wants xCJL as his DC Jim has some money to drop to leave.

Think it has more to do with an offense guy being the main face of organizations.  Jim's D is usually very good. I know we have CS and Tenn hired a defense guy.  But most teams seem to be looking for O.

Good D usually leads to an O

 

I'll let myself out.

On retaining defensive coordinator Jim Leavitt:

"He does want to be a head coach. He's passionate. Boy, has he had a tremendous impact on our defense and our team. We'd love to have Jim stay... we'll do everything we can. We've showed our commitment last year when we paid $1.15 million. It's funny, I spoke at a luncheon today and the first question I got was, 'Pay him whatever he needs to keep him,' and I said, 'That's interesting, I came here a year ago you said how can you pay $1.15 million for a defensive coordinator and now you're telling me to do whatever I have to do. We want to make sure we do everything we can to convince Jim to stay but in the end, it's obviously his choice."

Interesting hire by SMU. I don't know much about Sonny Dykes but I do recall hearing his name here and there in the past. Was this a good hire by SMU?
