Scott Cochran is Leaving for Georgia

[bamamick]

There are a bunch of assistant S&C coaches on the staff right now, yes? I would imagine the fort can be minded until a new person is either hired or promoted.

It’s official: Scott Cochran leaves Alabama to coach special teams at UGA

The Bulldogs announced late Monday that Nick Saban's longtime strength and conditioning coach will replace Scott Fountain as Georgia's special teams coordinator.

“Mustache man”?

Fu Manchu man - Joe Willie Namath!

Amusing to think of Cochran as Special Teams coach. "Kamikaze" KO teams in the old parlance perhaps, but maybe Banks turned down the job and this is 'Irby's way of avenging not getting a better candidate for the job in stealing Banks away...

al.com reporting it, special teams coach at Georgia. Interesting development, especially in wake of the last two years of injury issues.

I've often wondered if his approach and techniques have contributed to some of that...……...….I'm sure it has been looked at

I think this is a slap in the face to CNS by BOTH of them. I can’t wait until game 3.

Well, if Saban didn't fight for him to stay, he probably isn't too worried about it

This is a SIGNIFICANT loss for Bama and ridiculous coup by Kirby and UGA! Is this the first sign of a “changing of the guard” in the SEC???

CSC was great for Bama. He was there for all of coach's titles. ( 1@ LSWho too)
However, the game has changed a bit to a faster, quick twitch type athlete (not all the way around, still need big thumpers) and maybe he isn't as skilled at training that type of athlete as he was the "jumbo" athlete?
Clearly there's a reason that CNS didn't (as far as we know) fight it...
Bring on a new guy that gets these kids tendencies/mentalities and let's go!!!
CNS knows best...I'm excited to see who comes on board...RTR

You have an interesting way of interacting here sometimes. The biggest difference in AL and Georgia is still the two men at the top.

Ummm ... while you all are firmly focused on trying to use Alabama as an excuse to "change the guard" you may want to focus on the teams in your own division first. lol

I wish mods would lift the cursing ban just for posts responding to DawgByte.

I do not like him leaving us for UGA but I still respect him for what he has done. 5 national championships with him as the S&C coach. There have been some skinny athletes come into Alabama that left 20 or more pounds heavier and it was all muscle. I will thank him for the good times but I cannot wish him luck at UGA.
