Should the Packers next DC be Jim Leonhard?

I think we all admit we want Dom gone... so who should we hire? Based on what I've seen this year from the Badger defense, who have excelled despite injuries and play incredible assignment sure defense, I'm confident that Leonhard is a guy who is going to be an NFL coach very soon. He understands what it takes to succeed in today's NFL, and he would probably relate far better to the young players we have who seem to be developing too slowly. He is young and hungry. I'm not interested in some old retread.

Thoughts?

As mentioned, he has only coached for 2 years and likely will get a couple more before being hired away.

I agree about someone young and hungry unless a guy like Wade Phillips or Gregg Williams comes available. A guy who is successful everywhere he goes.

It's close to Mutiny of the Bounty for Williams in Cleveland.

for the record I would prefer Richard Lionheart as the new defensive coordinator.
