Walker's timing is good

Darrell has lost a lot from the roster, but he has most of the impact players returning, including two who could not play last season. Plus he is coming in after one of the worst seasons in program history. Plus the vacancies give him a chance to bring in his own players immediately, instead of having to wait a year or two, as sometimes happens to new coaches. It would be very difficult to look very bad in such circumstances. If nothing else, our new coach has a very good sense of timing.
