OC and DC replacement discussion

[TideEngineer08]

I’m hearing that we are hiring Matt Patricia as OC

 

[tusks_n_raider]

I honestly don't know. But I honestly can't remember how long of a time existed in between the leaving and arriving of other coordinators. Does anyone remember? @selmaborntidefan?

I know that our culture expects things to happen instantly. In general, we aren't patient. Multiply this times 1000 for TideFans.

We wanted to know yesterday!!!

Most recently there was a 9 day gap between Sark and BoB and a month gap from Pruitt to Golding/Lupoi

I guess it could be 10 to 30 days

I suspected as much. We are still within that window.

Yeah I and mean I know it feels like forever but it's only been 13 days on Golding leaving and 2 Days on BoB...lol

I know I said I would add my apology to my signature but I have decided to wait and see who the replacements are. If they are worse, I will not apologize for doubting the old coordinators were leaving

I'd not be surprised if we know something just after signing day. That would be my guess.

But I also wouldn't be shocked if we didn't hear anything regarding OC until after the Superb Owl (Feb 12th).

IMO, I think signing day has something to do with the delays. I'm not sure who we're in on that is still deciding, but CNS has always made his thoughts clear about folks leaving for other stops in the middle of the cycle. That being said, I think he also realizes this because of this, the optics may look bad on us for doing the same. FTR, I'm just guessing. RTR

I don't but it's mostly because I don't pay any attention to it. It's like recruiting - doesn't matter who we sign, it matters who starts later.

I'm willing to wait until September as long as Coach Saban gets the guy he wants.

Dig that. We are in the offseason and all the coaches are out recruiting. Slow news cycle + coordinators change = check Tidefans 50 times a day.

We need someone hired soon so they will be prepared for Spring ball to have the team ready for the fall.

That's sandlot, can't change the rules in the middle of the game. LOL

I refuse to apologize if it is Dooley, Roman, or Grantham.

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Wanna know why I pay ZERO attention to recruiting?

Because "Billy Ray gone come to Alabama and set AAAAWWWLLL de records..."

He went 7 of 13 for 40 yards, 0 TDs, and an INT and transferred to Duke.

I've never paid ANY attention to recruiting since then. Too many "this guy is the next so-and-so" who wind up being the next "well, he could have been but his head wasn't in the game."

(I'll grant recruiting is far more refined with far fewer misses now than used to happen - but it's still an imprecise science and why waste time getting excited over some guy who may never play a single snap).

I'm not judging y'all who keep up with it, to each his or her own - I just don't pay it no never mind.

(Bo Jackson was actually Auburn's #2 choice when they recruited him btw; it happens).

 

[selmaborntidefan]

Wanna know why I pay zero attention to OC and DC?

Because I lived through the very same people going from "Kiffin? Oh, HELL naw" to "Kiffin de man" to "Kiffin is a distraction" to "Kiffin oughta take over when CNS gone."

Some of y'all are like pro wrassling fans....
