I thought his team was well prepared last night and played their butts off. That said, no my opinion hasn't changed and in fact worsened listening to his post game presser. He had enough excuses and blame game to last a long time.
Agree that that's a real turnoff...I thought his team was well prepared last night and played their butts off. That said, no my opinion hasn't changed and in fact worsened listening to his post game presser. He had enough excuses and blame game to last a long time.
Can you provide some specifics?
Thanks for the reply. All I really remember from the Dubose era was he seemed to invoke God a lot all while boinking an employee. I have no recollection of Dabo.I do not think that Earl will want to provide specifics about Dabo's time at Bama under Dubose. It really seems that he was far more involved with the transgressions under the Dubose regime although that was perhaps never made public. That is my guess here. And his recruiting success at Clemson ( all the while wearing his religion on his sleeve) is pretty interesting.
I tend to be firmly in the no Dabo camp...My problems with him go back to the role he played in the Dubose regime. I'm unconvinced he's changed, despite the Bible-thumping...
I never thought I'd see a question like that on here. I know you are smarter than that...Can you provide some specifics?

Having said that, I'm not sure what the best alternatives are. Kirby is a Georgia guy if he succeeds, and beyond Urban Meyer and Nick Saban, there just hasn't been another dominating coach in college football since Pete Carroll left for the NFL. Even Kiffin seems like a long short alternative down the road (if he goes somewhere as a head coach and shows maturity/success). I just don't see someone that I'd want to replace Saban with right now (not that I 'd want to replace him with anyone, but there's no one I'd be enthused about).
So, I think Dabo needs more on his resume. I think he needs to show he can win without Watson, but... if he does? I imagine that could win over people and their well warranted hesitation when it comes to Dabo.
Let me assure you that, when any staff member makes a statement on here, it has backup, even if it can't be released to the public. You are perfectly free to disbelieve it, if you want, but I think that all of us have been pretty accurate. Perhaps a board with staff you can really trust?Thanks for the reply.

Edit - also a lack of over-site concerning Albert Means
I wasn't doubting you or anyone. Simply asking a question to understand better.Let me assure you that, when any staff member makes a statement on here, it has backup, even if it can't be released to the public.

Signing Blake Barnett and Jalen Hurts suggests the offense is going to continue to evolve.First off I don't want his style of offense at bama. No need for it when you can recruit prostyle athletes and game manager QBs. this offensive system has disastrous results if you can't get a high caliber athlete at QB who also has equal amounts of poise under pressure. Even these athletes are capable of having off days. Just imagine what would have happened last night if DW had at about 80% of his level last night? I think you would have seen the national dynamic change on the idea of the spread offense and I would argue it's already changing to a degree.
You don't read Bamaro's stuff on the NS board, do you?I know you are smarter than that...
