Former Alabama safety takes swipe at LSU's new defensive coordinator
Alabama and LSU have created one of college football’s best rivalries, and it’s usually the country’s most physical game every year.
Former Alabama safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix just completed his rookie season with the Green Bay Packers. But that didn’t stop Clinton-Dix from taking a swipe at his former coach, Kevin Steele, who just happens to be LSU’s new defensive coordinator. Steele was Alabama’s Director of Player Personnel in Clinton-Dix’s final year in Tuscaloosa.
Kevin Steele defensive coordinator for LSU? last-time he was a DC he got 70 points scored on him. ?

Steele left Alabama, where he was the Crimson Tide’s linebackers coach, before taking the LSU job. And the game Clinton-Dix is referring to was the 2012 Orange Bowl, where Steele’s Clemson Tigers’ defense gave up 595 total yards and 70 points to West Virginia.
Ouch.
