Bama Coordinator Search Thread

but, if all the players in that group are frustrated that they are doing their jobs, and making the blocks, and getting open and the ball is almost never coming out of the QBs hands, and it's causing the offense to sputter to the point it is hurting the team and then the position coach is able to at least moderate the situation, you have to give him credit for that. The tension from some of the players was extremely visible watching games. We've got multiple first round potential WRs on this team, and a couple of pretty good seniors who could have had a shot at the NFL with a decent season, but the ball wasn't coming out once we got into the meat of the schedule. I'm sure the WR film room got very, very tense with guys seeing exactly how open they were...

If Saban has issues with the offense and can still win championships like this then who cares?

I wish that in spite of my "blind spot" I was at the top of my field and the envy of all my colleagues and had accomplished a level of domination and consistency that smashed record books and sent my contemporaries helplessly scrambling for a way to unseat me.

Saban isn't good at everything but he's so good when it matters that he is literally unstoppable. People, talented and gifted people, have been trying desperately to stop Nick Saban for a decade and have little to show for it. Millions and millions of dollars have gone into coaching contracts, new equipment, and player evaluation technology; all in pursuit of knocking the King off his throne and yet...
Despite his apparently well documented blind spot or projected weakness the program he has built crushes the CFB world like a steam roller gliding over Frosted Flakes cereal.

It's not that Saban maybe made a call on offense too late - it's that it didn't matter. Tripping backwards over our own shoelaces with our arms in slings and a neck brace cradling our skull we still managed to win a national championship game against a healthy and disciplined opponent.

How remarkable that despite waiting till the last possible moment to make a season altering decision the team still had so much talent (stocked by Saban) and discipline (coached by Saban) that they were able to punch Georgia in the throat and snatch a title from their limp hands?

People should be more afraid of Nick Saban now than ever before. He can literally beat your best team on its best day with one hand tied behind his back.

Sure it is - if you are making unreasonable posts. As far as it affecting the coach, obviously one post, or one subject is not going to have an effect; but it piles up over time, affects the media's coverage, other fans and the attitude and spirit of the program. Aaron Suttles commented recently that Saban was growing tired of the increasing criticism. The whining after the AU was pathetic. What if he goes 10-3? The constant whining, no matter what, could push him over the edge. No one nor he is claiming his infallibility, but the arrogance and lack of propriety by some Bama fans is unbecoming. Have some fun and if you have criticisms, do it with respect. This is the toy store of life. This is a great and fun moment in Tide history.

How's that for fan posting etiquette 101? Sorry to be so preachy.

I just don't think I'd enjoy watching Freeze call 20 wide receiver screens a game.

I doubt Saban would let that happen. Ask Daboll what happens to OCs that repeatedly call dumb plays.

ESPN reporting FSU hiring Bell from Maryland as OC, so for now appears Locksley is staying and FSU was determined to have someone from Maryland on staff

While Long was the most intriguing name to me, Saban has literally forgotten more about what makes a good OC than I will ever know. That trophy he just carried home and set beside the four others inclines me to give the man some benefit of the doubt. So let's all just calm down and trust the process.

There is no reason to be watching this with much concern. Even the bad ones weren't that bad and the good ones had their faults.
