Awesome article. Could be a GREAT recruiting tool.

That's a fantastic read - and why we need to continue to do whatever we can to hold on to CSC.

Cochran is the highest paid strength and conditioning coach in the country.

And he's probably still underpaid compared to the value he adds to the program.

Great article. Smart tried hard to pull him but we raised him. Also, I think he has one more year to vest. Next year, we may be more vulnerable...

Thankfully, money talks.

I hope not. Pay him whatever it takes.

True, although the bond between Smart and Cochran is really strong...

Yah, I was half-surprised he stayed this year. I think that allowed leverage (along with cash) that can be used next year, if needed. We'll see, I'd sure hate to lose Cochran.

But, if we do, knowing Coach Saban is hiring the next one gives me comfort

Its funny how they cussed Coach Cochran when "The Funeral" video popped up a few years back..Now they would welcome him with open arms & wouldn't blame them one iota..

There's a reason Coach Cochran is the best in the game at what he does..

I would be one of the first in line to donate blood or an ex wife to keep Cochran at Alabama, but even he can't fix that weak backbone environment over there. They fold like deck chairs on the Titanic or the French looking at the Germans. They need culture strengthening more than physical.

And yet they still act entitled. One of the most annoying fan bases around IMO.

Other than money, what else can he get? An assistant coach might take a pay cut to get a head coaching job somewhere, but Cochran has pretty much maxed out as far as job titles go.

Great read. He's a pretty darn inspiring guy.

ROTYDE · Oct 16, 2016

I say give him what ever it takes.

ccc2259 · Oct 16, 2016

A great read, and I'm darn glad we have him, as long as we have him.
