Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: SUPERCOACH on April 29, 2016, 12:18:52 PM Replacement? Next man up, let's go.
My only concern is the NCAA aspect of whatever happened. Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: McBaman on April 30, 2016, 03:18:19 PM Not sure what this adds, but FWIW....

We have taken a major hit, just hope another one is not coming.
??? Quote A person familiar with the situation told AL.com it did concern a potential recruiting violation, which may not have been serious in nature, but Davis was not cooperative with the school when questioned about it. It appears that lack of cooperation led to his departure. It won't be just another staff change for Alabama because Davis wasn't just any recruiter. The recruiting website 247 Sports ranked him the No. 1 recruiter in the SEC for 2016 and No. 2 nationally behind USC's Tee Martin, crediting him with such signees as Gordo linebacker Ben Davis and Texas quarterback Jalen Hurts. Among Davis' "top all-time commits," 247 listed nose guard Terrence Cody, cornerback Kendall Sheffield and defensive tackle Daron Payne. Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: McBaman on April 30, 2016, 07:11:05 PM You're right, MD, this is a major hit. The press focus on the draft is deflecting attention; probably a good thing. This story is far from over.
As someone said earlier, at least it's April (May) while there's still time to find a replacement coach. But Bo will be hard to replace as a coach. Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: BillBrosky on May 01, 2016, 09:36:16 AM Now you have to wonder if the reason he was #1 in the SEC was because of, potentially, other violations. :dunno:

I hadn't thought of that. Like I said, I hope no money was involved. :stars: Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: Red Elephant on May 01, 2016, 04:22:45 PM http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2016/05/new_details_regarding_potentia.html#incart_2box_sports (http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2016/05/new_details_regarding_potentia.html#incart_2box_sports)
Maybe this wont have such a bad ending. Quote According to a source familiar with details of the case, Davis is accused of visiting multiple out-of-state recruits during a period when coaches aren't allowed any contact with recruits. Quote The recruits in question did not end up signing with Alabama, according to the source. Quote The source compared Davis' alleged violations to the NCAA violations committed by former Florida wide receivers coach Joker Phillips in 2014. Phillips ultimately resigned from Florida, and the Gators received no further penalties from the NCAA.

Quote The NCAA contacted Alabama's compliance office regarding the situation, and Davis was questioned and caught being dishonest before eventually resigning, according to the source. Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: McBaman on May 01, 2016, 06:00:20 PM Perhaps another case where the cover-up was worse than the crime. To me, doesn't sound like a major violation.
We have lost a great position coach and that can't be minimized, but it sounds like the replacement is on the way: http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2016/05/alabama_expected_to_hire_longt.html#incart_river_index Don't know anything about this guy. But if CNS likes him, then so be it.

Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: Marshal Dillon on May 01, 2016, 08:55:07 PM He's from the South so he will be happy to escape sunny Buffalo. Sounds okay, not sure about the recruiting prowess.
Quote A former standout defensive lineman at LSU, Dunbar was LSU's strength and conditioning coach under Saban from 2001-02 and later returned as the Tigers' defensive line coach in 2005 under Les Miles. :dog: Title: Re: Bo Davis to leave Alabama due to possible recruiting violations Post by: ricky023 on May 02, 2016, 10:51:10 AM It seems LSU under Miles in 2005 had a great defense that year. Coach Dunbar was the D-line coach of course they had CNS players but that is what he will have here and CJP helping him out as DC. He should do well here. I see where he was also the S&C Coach under CNS at LSU. This could be fun i guess. RTR!
