I don’t know if I’m ready to discuss this.

I don’t know if I’m ready to discuss this.

We could always just link it to the other threads about this. I have never heard of Josh Palet though.

TBH, I had to Google who Josh Palet was.

TBH, I had to Google who Josh Palet was.

Maybe since he played for Coach Saban and these other coaches were on staff, he has some insight.

2015 walk-on from San Diego. Dad is a long-time local sports talk guy there and apparently Josh does some sports talk now, as well.

Palet said he was planning to play for Southwestern again until he received pitches from Division I schools about football (he had kept his football recruiting package up to date as another option). He had applied to attend the University of North Carolina and the University of Alabama for academics, with the prospect of being a walk-on for football. UNC was the first to show interest and Palet flew back to tour that campus.

But things changed quickly when Palet received a call from Alabama while in North Carolina. “Alabama was really my first choice but when they didn’t call back at first, I thought they had lost interest,” Palet said. “But, when they did call, it was the greatest day in my life.”

I would take Sark at this point. But, timing will matter greatly on who gets the job next. For example, I think after his first national championship Dabo would have been the guy, but now I think that ship has sailed. I personally hope to see us go with an offensive minded coach over a defensive guy. I think the game has changed and I don't want to see our offense regress to what Georgia is today.

No. And I remember Billy Ray, Jonathan Richey, and David Valletto (who wasn’t a QB but an obscure name).

He never met a buffet he couldn’t dominate.

Using this logic, we should ask Duron Carter what he thinks, too.

But do you remember Cotis Nunley?
