If defensive staff changes are coming, who should OSU be looking to hire?

Reading some things posted here makes me little hesitant, but even looking past that I liked the idea of having the flexibility of the DC being able to be a LB/DL/DB guy. With this it would force us to go the route of DB DC. I do kind of like what I've seen/heard from the guy from the texans, but it worries me that he's a 3-4 guy. Maybe he can slowly implant the 3-4 over a multi year period while recruiting for it behind the scenes? Because right now we'd be wasting a lot of DL talent and forcing on LB that we don't have.

Ironically shazier is the prototypical OLB in a 3-4.

Re: Johnson established himself as one of the country's most prolific East Coast recruiters and a top-notch defensive line coach. Johnson is considered an elite teacher of defensive linemen. The move will carry significant implications on the recruiting trial, as Johnson was long considered Penn State's most important recruiter. His presence on the Ohio State staff will increase the Buckeyes' recruiting arm in both Pennsylvania and Washington D.C., where Johnson was a longtime high school coach.

I think Urban hit a "home run" with the hire. Johnson has proven to be an outstanding teacher/coach/recruiter, tireless worker, and a loyal employee to his school. Any past differences he may have had (with Ohio State) will be forgotten when he becomes a BUCKEYE.
