DAG 33,954 Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 (edited) 4 minutes ago, Tiger1992 said: You really think any coach should have to worry about their coordinators conspiring against them? What I am saying is he hired those guys. If you hired guys who conspired against you. Either 1). You hired the wrong guy 2). You set limits. If there is a guy who is conspiring against you, you dead that issue quickly. If you don’t have the support to dead that issue , then you be man enough to say this isn’t a situation I need to be in. This is my last response to this. My apologies @ellitor. WDE War damn CBH. Edited March 5, 2021 by DAG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant more so that it would be a bad look if we hired him in the midst of a scandal, kind of like how it was a bad look when we hired Ira Bowman who was being investigated for his scandal at Penn State in basketball.

Carnell 592 Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 On 3/4/2021 at 12:27 PM, steeleagle said: But I wonder how we compared to other top programs in the SEC like GA, LSU, TaM? Alabama is such an extreme, I really find it hard to compare to them. If Gus had only 5 or 6, I wonder how he could really analyze the effectiveness of our offense or even defense, without detailed input and breakdowns. I guess it was more of Gus' need for a small inner circle of trust and input? It is really not the size of the staff but the effectiveness of the staff in identifying a player in 3 areas. The first is identifying the best player similar to how rivals & scout identify players and rank by numbers and stars, the next is identifying undervalued players ie Donatarris Thomas and third is identifying non ranked or even a walk on that will fit certain situations.

Site rankings should not be involved at all in a staff's eval of recruits. Also Scout doesn't exist anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying site rankings are involved. The evaluation is done by the coaching staff but they will rate the players by position very similar to the way recruiting sites do.

E I think you are not understanding what Carnell was trying to say. He was using the site using stars and numbers as a scale. He was saying our coached would have their own scale to compare players with as one part of the criteria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff's shouldn't use for anything more than a directory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that Gus was doing it when he became a coordinator at Arky...so he has experience...remember when the HC was taking over the offense from him there because he didn't like some of Gus' plays? And then Gus was speaking to boosters behind his back? Sound familiar... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are the good ones who can reel kids in? Outside of Friend and Bobo, TBD on a lot of them. Carnell is OK, but there has been some talk he dropped the ball on some kids last year. Not sure how much truth there is to that. Ethridge seemed to do pretty well with the WVU transfer. But no one else has a true recruiting pedigree. Doesn't mean they can't, just that they haven't. I do wish we had one person on the defensive side of the ball with a strong background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Cadillac will get his chance in the upcoming recruiting year, bc we definitely will need a replacement for Tank, as he enters his more than likely last year in college when he is a JR. He and others will have to deliver at RB in 2022 for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tank is a special human being and we can't hope to get that combination of brain and talent every cycle, but in terms of pure physical talent, we absolutely should be getting that caliber of player every cycle. Our rivals can and do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also say he’s a huge reason we still have Tank. Edited March 15, 2021 by toddc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
