This is my thought and I'm going to move on from this.
I found this interesting that everyone is comparing CKD to the previous coaches, in how they wear clothes on sideline, how he handles the program, and etc.
"Coach Saban would've skull dragged Moore and kicked him off the team!!!!!"
"Coach Stalling wouldn't put up with this! "
Things like that makes me wonder about fans sometime, because to me, every coach we hire, we hire in different era, different times, so they handle things according to what they see what's best for the team and the program itself. I really don't care about CKD and how he wears his hat, his t-shirts on the sideline. I really don't care about the music at the practice. I really don't care he doesn't get upset on the sideline. All I care is that he puts the team in the best position to win games each week and I know he will.
I'm not happy with Malachi Moore and the way he acted on the field. But that doesnt mean he deserve to be kicked off the team or anything like that. Everyone needs to step off the ledge and put emotion aside. It's just football in the end of the day. The outbursts by Moore is nothing new. I used to see that all the time growing up. Marvin Strong had his moments, John Petty, Matt Burke, Eric Robinson, John Wallace, those are local legends who excelled in sports and are from Huntsville who went on to do big things after high school and I know all of them. The point is Everyone is human. We all do things like that. If you say, "I would never acted like that." I don't believe you. You probably have done that and just don't remember. It might be at home, at work or somewhere in public.
What happened Saturday night was inexcusable for the coaches and the players. Everyone messed up. Offense tried their best and they did their job, but Defense couldn't get the job done. Wommack should've made adjustments, and he didn't. there was way to stop Vandy's offense. Nine missed tackles was charted in this game. Nine. Those nine tackles would've resulted in unfavorable position and likely forced punt.
I think Defense will be fine going forward. Whatever happened in Georgia's game carried on to Vandy's game and I'm not talking about performance on the field, I think it's some internal locker room issues going on because some players don't like new changes and so they're acting up.
I was very confident we would beat vandy, but late Thursday, I was starting to get concerned, and what Saban said confirmed my gut feeling and I told my wife, we would struggle in this game, not because it's Vandy, but because the players was not taking it serious. But going forward, I expect defense to improve significantly this weekend.
Time to move on to SC game.
