Hypothetical: Mike London after UVA

I got into a little debate with one of my friends about this and I wanted to bring it to TKP to see what the overall response was.

Imagine it's four years from now. Frank Beamer decides it's time to hang it up after winning his first and only national championship. Virginia Tech decides to make Bud Foster the new head coach of Virginia Tech. Because of Bud's promotion, VT needs a new defensive coordinator.

After going 32-61 in his tenure, that school in Charlottesville decides to let Mike London go. Like a little puppy dog lost in a snowstorm, he comes to Blacksburg in hopes of securing the vacant DC position.

My question to TKP: Under this scenario, would you want Mike London as our new DC?

Positives: Great recruiter, used to be a cop
Negatives: Terrible in-game management, not a Xs and Os guy, used to be a cop. The negatives would be mitigated because Bud is probably going to run the defense anyways.
