Bringing in Tee Martin signals desperation to me. I hope this is not true. If he couldn’t get it done at SC, what on earth would make one think he can get it done at Bama?

If coach considers Dooley, I hope he has burned his

Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
This is what Gattis had to say when he was introduced at UM. Maybe his idea of great and successful are different from those of Coach Saban.
[FONT="]'It is an honor and a privilege to join the University of Michigan football family under Coach Harbaugh, one of the most successful head coaches in all of football,'' Gattis said. ''I am deeply humbled by the opportunity to serve as your offensive coordinator. This is the leadership challenge I've coveted. The football tradition at the University of Michigan is among the very best in college athletics. My family and I couldn't be more excited to arrive in Ann Arbor.''[/FONT]

Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
That tells you that he wanted to call plays at Alabama and did not get that gig, so he went to a program that would let him call plays. Pretty much what we all thought.
Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
It would be as big a mistake as Butch Jones.......I don’t think Saban is that desperate
Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
I haven’t seen one offensive coordinator playing on the field in my lifetime, yet players seldom get blamed.
I’m not talking about botched fake field goal attempts, just regular plays.
Sometimes it ain’t about the play call, but the play execution. actually, IMO it’s mostly about that.
As for Enos, he had the experience but I don’t ever see CNS giving up the authority to hire assistants to coordinators on either side of the ball. I’m amazed that Enos even thought he would, which tells me he never intended to stay, just wanted to pad his resume.

Kind of an aside, but it’s funny how people refer to a successful play as a brilliant call, or an unsuccessful one as a bad call.

Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
I don't blame Enos for wanting control of his position coaches, and I don't blame CNS for wanting control of his recruiters. Of all the names tossed out there Larry Fedora makes more sense to me than any other. I will say that there should be no shortage of suitors to take the keys of this offense.

Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
I would take Fedora as OC and Tee Martin as QB coach.
How about Prothro as WR coach?

Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
i definitely think if Martin is brought in its for QB’s. He’s coached some successful QBs. I know no one here likes him but Saban only cares about his ability to perform.
Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
Nah ill pass on ole T. martin..Id take petrino or freeze though (even if for 1 year). Fedora is a negative for me as well

Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
I am still not sure there are people waiting in line to work for CNS, as most think. Of the names mentioned, if you want an OC who will be around for awhile, is a good recruiter, and knows what CNS wants then Derek Dooley is your choice.
I do not understand where the idea that Butch Jones was a great recruiter when he was the HC of Tennessee came from. If you want just a recruiter then Tee Martin would fit that bill. I believe replacement assistants and OC will be coaches we have either not heard of or did not think of.

Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
I don't know how I feel about Tee being here.....................I certainly don't want him as OC. There may not be a line of people around the block wanting to OC Bama, but there are certainly better choices out there. Mr. Mobile Money Order isn't anyone I'd want around the program
Re: 2018-19 Coaching Carousel
I don't hold a grudge but Tee Martin had his chance to come here out of high school. Not like I have a choice but I will trust Coach Saban to get this right as he does 98% of the time.
