Derek Mason was a good secondary coach.  not sure about our guy of late.

You jest? Many think Akina one of the best. Has placed a representative sample in the NFL. Has he lost a step?

in addition to the other commentary, I'd add from what I've seen based on on-field product, I think Mason's DB were technically more proficient, particularly tackling, and much better at angles on passes and runs.  

in the end, Akina has say on the offers and recruitment (Jesse's and the Joe's) and the coaching (X's and the O's) and both aspects seem to be on the decline.
