I am pumped for Flood as Oline coach. Finally a quality oline coach. Course I thought the same when Wickline came here, but apparently Flood actually likes to recruit--The Brocks mentioned him and his coaching as a big part of the Bama appeal. Not sure if that is just yacking or not but it's there.
I am not sweating S&C hire. Sark had a good one by all accounts at both UW and USC and I can't imagine he isn't aware of the importance after being around Carol and Saban.
On the Muschamp front---Didn't Football Scoop or TFB say they weren't buying the Muschamp is out talk and think it is just negotiating between Will and Texas at the moment? The whole floating Derek Mason's name was referred to as leverage in negotiations correct? I believe they said Mason's side doesn't believe Texas will actually offer him and that they are just negotiating with their real target?
I like Muschamp as a DC.....he was a little too bend but don't break against tech compared to how some others attacked the spread but I'd still take him back.
That's a contract thing. Typically done by smaller schools to prevent bigger schools from money whipping someone for a lateral move. My brief googling shows that Bama, along with Texas and many other "Blue bloods" doesn't typically include this in contracts.
Also, it seems pretty typical when someone leaves bama for a HC gig they tend to take a few coaches with them.
Unpopular though it may be...growing up I enjoyed Bohls writing, especially after another stupid loss of which there were many....
Davis and Golden I have never cared for their coverage though.
Then do us all a favor you whiney tool. TAKE THAT DISCUSSION TO A THREAD THAT IS ACTUALLY DISCUSSING IF SARK IS A GOOD HIRE OR NOT AND KEEP IT THE HECK OUT OF THE STAFF THREAD! Caps were so you didn't misunderstand what I was trying to convey.
I agree, people don't know squat about the staff situation and 9.95ers were all caught so flat footed about the fire and hire that some (FCB) were just throwing out names that were tangetally connected to Sark and had name recognition. Of course those same idiots(FCB) wouldn't have the mental capacity to realize that it is 2000 and Mike Stoops is not a splash hire....
Well after a 2 month or so foray onto the football board my IQ is definitely reduced....anyway...Sark has some solid potential.....he kind of reminds me of a low floor high ceiling recruit....He could fail spectacularly if things go badly but could be amazing....beats Herman or a high floor liw ceiling guy like campbell..
Paging @immamac can you ask the idiots who can't read the thread title to take their batching about the hire to another one of a multitude of threads and at least attempt to keep this thread on staff discussions....
Well if we are quoting Tom Hicks, he also said in writing in an interview that after speaking with Mack he told Sabans agent that we weren't interested 8 months before Mack was fired after talking to Mack. Then after they canned Mack the damage was already done and Saban wasn't interested.
