JessN: Assistant coach hiring tracker...

I assume we will use Jay nunez the same way Oklahoma did.

In practice he will coach special teams and be paid basically as an on field coach. But will technically be an analyst or support staff role, so hewon't be on field for games position coaches will be given different responsibilities for special teams in game or inge may get that specifically.

Oklahoma paid him about a quarter million to be an "analyst"

I really like the nunez hire.

UPDATE...

Officially added William Inge (finally) and Jay Nunez to the hire list. Inge will likely coach either Edge/OLB or ILB, depending on which position Wommack takes. Nunez will serve as special teams coordinator but does not appear to be officially an on-field coach.

I am not trying to be critical, I am just thinking through the hire, but these are not overly impressive numbers. View attachment 40704

FG% isn’t on the ST Coach unless they are getting blocked. And punting stats can be misleading. Especially if your PK is struggling.

Unless someone can tell me otherwise, CKD has put together a coaching staff that will put him in a strong position to succeed in his first year. I'm not sure which CNS staff to compare this one to, but it appears to be a lot better than any CNS staff from 2018 on.

It will be interesting to see what kind of work environment CKD brings with him. I think my two biggest criticisms of Saban were his tense to shut the offense down for the backups, and that his work environment wasn’t conducive to keeping successful coaches long term. I mean coaches took their lumps and ran as soon as they could and it always put Saban on his heels trying to find acceptable replacements.

Most were promoted to coordinator or head coach and who would blame them. Others were asked to look elsewhere. There may have been a few but that statement is not very accurate.

So you’re going on the record as saying the assistant coaching remained at an elite level for the entirety of Saban’s time at Alabama? They learned what could and left, most haven’t returned even if things didn’t work out. Lance Thompson and Kevin Steele? Are those the only two?
 
Saban treated his coaches "right" but he also was very demanding of them as well. These two things aren't in conflict with each other. If he was going to work 12-14 hour days, so was everyone else whether he explicitly told them or they felt the pressure to. That level of work and commitment can wear on people.

I'm going on record saying your statement "they took their lumps and ran is fast as the could" is not an accurate statement.

I did not insinuate the assistant's remained at an elite level his entire tenure so not sure where that came from.

Anyway, the Saban experience is a huge thing to have on your resume and every assistant we ever had knew it and many parlayed it into promotions.
