I like the idea of Arnett as DC because I believe in his X & O abilities. A solid gameday coach is the anchor and give him a team of stud recruiters with good coaching ability to stock the cupboard. Likewise the offensive side of the ball but Freeze can call his own plays and put the icing on recruiting. I would like to have a highly regarded OL coach to help draw recruits also.

Thank you but that took way too long.

Different forum.

I would think either would be upgrades. Roberts seems to be a pretty good DC but he sure made some flawed decisions this season.

He's an idiot so.....

He came out of the closet with his user name.

That's not a good average, it's a decent one. We need a great DC.

The online is and has always been the starting point for offense. Get a great line and a decent QB can look great. Likewise a mediocre OL can make a good QB look bad (see Bo Nix as example 1). If Freeze thinks he has the OL pieces he needs (skeptical) then we could probably roll with who we have at QB. If not it makes more sense to NIL the line up instead of adding one more stud WR.

Kiffin managed to call plays so maybe Freeze should focus on that and hire recruiters for gaining talent.

Hadn't seen this, where is it reported?

For the better I'm pretty sure.

I'm not sure about that., Alston and Cobb have looked pretty good, especially if Judkins is a locker room problem.

The guy certainly didn't get it done this season and showed nothing to indicate he's competent. This alone gives me pause about Freeze, he's shown little that he can manage AU football outside of recruiting.

He also doesn't have sec teammates surrounding him.

They both give me fits too.

Regarding coaching changes, I'm not sure why Montgomery was retained. The offense was putrid beyond the quality of our players. The defense was better, and maybe on par with our talent level, but some of the defensive in-game decisions were questionable to say the least. I've seen enough from the OC to say he doesn't have what it takes.

Not only did he underachieve, he made bafflingly elementary missteps along the way. From seriously flawed gameplans (or lack of), limited halftime adjustments (or none), poor player execution (or lack of), to the moronic QB carousel. Com'on man, I'm no coach, just a fan, and even I can see what half@ss product he's putting out there. That changes next year where we at least look like we know what we're doing or I'll firmly be on the "next" program.

In a year with only 4 good teams.

The way forward is made of making progress. We showed the opposite of progress today. Unprepared, undisciplined, and unfocused. Do that again next year and the next coach will appreciate the fine effort recruiting.

You can't switch QBs in game silly!

Well he'd be grinding it somewhere else if it was up to me.

With higher price tags comes higher productivity. If they put in the work it will be worth it.

That they can't catch?

Yes, it's their old NIL. Before anyone else had NIL, like 40 years+.

Not till we tell them to!
