It really is hard to believe that we screwed up QB recruiting so badly after a string of Hurts, Tua, Mac, Bryce, to this guy who looks like he hasn’t progressed from middle school level football. How. How did we get there.As much as I can appreciate all the success we had under CNS, I can't honestly see how he came to signing Milroe and hiring Doug Marrone. There had to be a massive amount of hubris or massive amount of neglect in these 2 program wrecking decisions.
Those aren't the only ones. Over and over Saban hired good recruiters over good coaches as he was sure he could make up the difference. He was right some of the time, but he was also wrong some of the time.As much as I can appreciate all the success we had under CNS, I can't honestly see how he came to signing Milroe and hiring Doug Marrone.

Well, I have to admit I wasn’t certain whether he would throw 4 interceptions and cough up 1 fumble or the other way around.We haven't introduced uncertainty and the unknown into a game in a long time
Him transferring would have been for the better for sure.I think our best case after Saban retired was for Milroe to declare for the draft or transfer. Him coming back put CKD in a no win situation that pretty much forced him to ride Milroe.
JM was a last resort after we missed all the guys we really wanted in that class. He wasn't a guy we were really after, and we tried to get him to leave once he was here, but he wouldn't.It really is hard to believe that we screwed up QB recruiting so badly after a string of Hurts, Tua, Mac, Bryce, to this guy who looks like he hasn’t progressed from middle school level football.

Well, it might be time to "encourage" him strongly to leave...........JM was a last resort after we missed all the guys we really wanted in that class. He wasn't a guy we were really after, and we tried to get him to leave once he was here, but he wouldn't.
As I heard it, back then he wouldn't go unless.he was going to be guaranteed to be the starter and no one would do that so we got stuck with himWell, it might be time to "encourage" him strongly to leave...........
As was what I heard..........I'd guarantee him this time he wouldnt be the starter and to go pro or go awayAs I heard it, back then he wouldn't go inless.he was going to be guaranteed to be the starter and no one would do that so we got stuck with him
I get that you don't like it. I don't either. I'd literally get fired for going 0-12 before I let my subordinates drive the bus, but that's one reason (among many, primarily ability) that I'm not a football coach.
Managing people is a truly underappreciated skill. And good managers are pretty rare. Modern coaches aren't the steel-fisted guys many of us grew up with - those guys can't remain employed - but rather the guys that figure out how to herd the giant group of cats we call a football team...
I'm glad I'm not in that position I would not be diplomatic or polite, his only choice would be that he has no choice.Well, it might be time to "encourage" him strongly to leave...........

".... You don't have to go home but you can't stay here"
Except he stayed.
I get that. But if Saban couldn't squash it who can?????????????I get it, I really do.
But there are plenty on here that have spoken directly about the grip the LANK crew had on the coaching staff. If even a hint of that is truth, benching JM wasn't an option. Think the OL looks bad when they're trying? Wait and see how bad they look with 2-3 of them start playing turnstile football.
It sucks, but this is what this team had to be if CKD was going to keep the basic team together. If it wasn't this, then we would have had even more emotional outbursts about losing 5+ games.
Give the man a couple of seasons, let him climb out form under he was left with and build his own thing.
I'd do it if they would let me..........I'm glad I'm not in that position I would not be diplomatic or polite, his only choice would be that he has no choice.
He certainly got his revenge on usJM was a last resort after we missed all the guys we really wanted in that class. He wasn't a guy we were really after, and we tried to get him to leave once he was here, but he wouldn't.
