Grubb to be next OC at Bama per ESPN

[cdub55]

you just really don't get it.

the RPO based offense as well as the IZR/OZR concepts are the ONLY thing the Nilroe could somewhat do, even though he didn't do that well at all.

There's no way he could run effective play action. We made a few attempts at it and just looked stupid cause the fake wasn't even close - like a yard away so it did nothing and Nilroe was even more off schedule than usual. Even just a hardcore run based set wasn't going to work because Nilroe can't make the most basic throws to keep the safeties from constantly crashing the box and putting us into situations where they'd have 2 free guys we couldn't block.

You're saying take the option out of the RPO or IZR. Well that's exactly what CTR did in 23 and everyone railed against him and thought he was the worst OC ever, at least until this year when someone else had to try to make lemonade out of rotten lemons. There just isn't enough sugar in the world to cover it up.

To add to that...

Play action plays really lose their advantage when the QB is changing his stance pre-snap on whether he is trying to execute a run play or pass play.

I can 100% assure you that the OC wasn't making the call on who the starting QB was...

He was trying to make chicken salad out of….

I think people are just trying to show that we weren't as bad as we looked sometimes. We were just one position away from being very good the past two years.

It is the offseason. No recruiting news. No spring ball. No nothing.

How dare we discuss the most recent football team and season on a football forum.

Some of yall act like we are talking about Namath and Bear...

Some of us see that a new post has been added. We go to the trouble to see if there is some new and substantial information, yet we get the same stuff repeated over and over again.

We could if some folks weren't continuously blaming Milroe's poor performances on Sheridan...

In that case I apologize. I never looked at it from the perspective of how difficult, troublesome, and courageous it is to log on, click on a link, scroll down, and then have to actually read the text.

TBF, this thread is supposed to be about Grubb...not Milroe and Sheridan...

 

[Bamabuzzard]

There is a Milroe thread already open. Please use it while you can because as I posted this week we will eventually close it along with the topic of Jalen Milroe as it pertains to content on this particular board. You will be more than welcome to go to the pro sports board and start a Milroe thread. Let's get the thread back on track about Grubb and his involvement in the 2025 offense that will not have Jalen Milroe a part of it. Thanks!

What does this have to do with Milroe????

 

[BamaMoon]

I'll try: Imagine Milroe as a running back coached by Grubb.

I'm sorry, back to Grubb as new OC.

NC here we come!

Interesting - CKD must think Sheridan knows what he's doing with QBs despite what was happening on the field in 24.

Sheridan was pretty well liked by the players From what I've heard. Im fine with him as a coach, may just be best not calling plays, and can handle some of the recruiting end while grubb focuses on game planing

I just want to wake up and find out 2024 was a bad dream.

When we move on from “DeBoer and Sheridan were the wrong hires and 24 proves it” line of thinking I think we will probably see less and less of Milroe threads. Because the obvious rebuttal to it is “Milroe was an ineffective quarterback for that system”. That’s why it keeps coming up on threads about the coordinator, and I think most here want to move on from it but some want to put so much blame on a coordinator or a HC for not being able to go undefeated or make the playoffs with a flawed team.

I get it. I truly do because I felt such a great frustration for 2 years in a row not knowing what would happen from week to week.

But, there's the other side of it that acknowledges that noone/team can stay at the top all the time. So, with a couple years of being "down" we'll enjoy the rise to the top more as we start seeing it happen.
