January 9, 200620 yr Saban has contacted former Houston Texans head coach Dom Capers about a position on his staff, a source said Friday. Although fired by the Texans on Monday following a 2-14 season, Capers is considered one of the NFL's top defensive coaches. Capers has already received feelers from five other teams about defensive coordinator positions, the source said. It's unknown whether Saban is discussing a defensive coordinator role with Capers. Richard Smith currently has the Dolphins' defensive coordinator title but splits responsibilities with assistant head coach/defense Will Muschamp. Saban declined comment about the situation through a Dolphins spokesman. Jimmy Sexton, who is the agent for Saban and Capers, didn't return two telephone calls seeking comment. Capers, 55, was Carolina's head coach from 1995 to 1998. He also served as defensive coordinator in Jacksonville (1999 and 2000) and Pittsburgh (1992 through 1994). Capers is especially knowledgeable about the 3-4 defensive system the Dolphins deploy. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/s...a-sports-front
January 9, 200620 yr Capers would be a tremendous addition to this team. He is a 3-4 specialist and is a great D-Coordinator. I love how Nick Saban is always willing to improve his team in any capacity.
