We need better defensive minds. I think he did ok as the DB coach but schematic wise the d was just ok. Hard to tell if it was all due to change this year or what. Still expecting to see something happen with Roach although his recruiting ability may keep him on.

Far as OC I do agree Tommy did better last year with even a worse oline. But not sure many changes coming except maybe o line. CKD is main offensive mind so not too confident a change will happen but hope some shifting.

Edit: most have seen some of the worst game plans this year so almost any change should be a good sign. Although prefer most on offensive end.

Forgive me I just don't have the time to keep up with this stuff as I once did, but did DeBoer not hire Hitschler? He was not a Coach Saban holdover that I recall.
DeBoer hired him. He was at Wisconsin last year. He had ties to the south though, having spent several years at South Alabama

edit: he also was on staff at South Alabama when Wommack was DC there.

Sheridan or someone else, with Milroe departing, how can we not see marked changes in the offense? QB will not be the only changes to personnel on offense.

Ive learned of new details... He didn't mesh well with the players... and didn't do great job of recuiting as well. There was lot going on this year. I all of suddenly understand why Chi was emotional this year. It make sense.

Are you saying Hitschler didn’t mesh? Who did you mean by Chi? Moore?
