Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: ricky023 on January 14, 2018, 04:21:43 PM Well who in the world will we be going after now? Jim McElwain. RTR!
Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: lstephen on January 14, 2018, 06:04:57 PM My wife suggested Coach Mac. Several players have suggested promoting Mike Locksley.
Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: McBaman on January 14, 2018, 06:10:38 PM Coach Daboll just didn't quite seem to fit at Bama, so I'm not surprised he took off. Other than the disruption and bad timing (vs. recruiting), I don't see this as a huge loss.
Somehow, I don't see CJMc doing an encore as our OC. The players seem to like Locksley but if he's such a good O coach, why didn't he get the job a year ago?? The pool of available and attractive candidates changes from year to year. CNS is never caught off guard by coaching departures so I imagine he'll find somebody good pretty soon.

At least there's no shortage of coaches wanting to coach (and learn) at the best. ;D

Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on January 15, 2018, 08:35:46 PM Hugh Freeze was in the Mal Moore Building today, but it looks like it was more of an advisement meeting than an interview.
He and Saban do socialize outside of football as well. Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: 2Stater on January 15, 2018, 09:15:10 PM Stranger things could happen. Saban does like to give 2nd chance opportunities.
Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: ricky023 on January 15, 2018, 09:42:44 PM I like Chip Lock or CML. I would love to them both on the team. RTR!
Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: Chechem on January 18, 2018, 06:41:21 AM Mike Locksley is the new OC. Wait for it...
:popcorn2: Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: 2Stater on January 18, 2018, 07:14:22 AM I hope he turns out to be a good one. We know he's a good recruiter.
Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: Hannibal Lecter, MD on January 18, 2018, 09:16:45 AM Locksley's contribution to the offense last year, supposedly, was more on the RPO side of the offense as Daboll coming from the Patriots was relatively unfamiliar with it. I hope this isn't a signal that we're going to stick with a heavy RPO-based scheme. I hope we go with Tua and use his football intelligence to go back to more of a pro style offense.
Title: Re: "Brian Daboll leaving Alabama for NFL job" Post by: ricky023 on January 18, 2018, 09:29:25 AM Well we as fans have seen what he can do and other teams. This should open up defenses if he is starting because they just say run and maybe pass. RTR!
