I went into the U.S. Navy in a program to learn how to run a Nuclear Power Plant. It was there I failed to pass a screening test and was thrown out of the program. I was told 53% of all males were color deficient. I told them it sounds like a majority to me and who was say 47 % were seeing the wrong colors and 53 % were right? They didn’t buy it.

Most CEOs don't cut a top manager without having 2-3 replacements in mind.

I am REALLY curious to know who the next Bama OL Coach will be!

Hearing a lot of noise it’s Brandon Jones from Mizzou…which means it probably will not be him. If it follows most of CKD hires, it will be a guy from UTSA or Eastern Washington or Central Michigan. Anyone know the OLine coach for those teams? One thing I have noticed is CKD seems averse to hiring coaches from P4 programs.

And other studies show that women believe they are right 98% of the time. Was it a women that told you that you were color deficient?

Last year I would agree with you but I think he's feeling the seat warm up a bit and understands he needs a proven commodity with SEC experience.

I helped dozens of small and medium-sized businesses with screening for both executive and down to new hire positions. (I'm certified in 14 different assessment programs. I'm also happily retired.)

Most assessment scores for characteristics can be distributed on a bell curve. The skinny part of the top of the curve gets important with the top 12% or so. (Or the bottom 12%; you don't always want the top 12% for every trait.)

Color blindness? That's not normally distributed; but if you're in a nuke plant, the green lights are flashing and you don't see green ... NO PROBLEM!

Imagine making a million dollars a year, failing miserably, and being surprised when they stop giving you a million dollars every year

Crazy thing is a million a year is chicken feed compared to what some (many?) people make in finance, tech, etc

Am i the only one wondering why im not a billionaire? I live in miami where it is pretty crazy in the rich ppl dept (ref U Miami payroll, unfortunately)

Pittman is retired and I'm told isn't really interested in getting back into things, at least not now.

The two names I've heard that I believe are the most involved are Vanderbilt's Chris Klenakis, who has ties to the Wommacks and also was Chris Ault's OC/OL coach during the time Ault invented the Pistol offense at Nevada, and Missouri's Brandon Jones.

There is also a bit of attention on Eric Mateos, who was recently hired at Wisconsin but has prior ties to the SEC when he was Arkansas' OL coach under Sam Pittman and also coached at LSU.

I'm a little less sure about Mateos than the other two, but hiring either Klenakis or Jones would be "home run" territory for me.

Missouri’s run game under coach Drink and Jones has been impressive the last couple years
 
I think the 2 top guys supposedly being talked about are the Mizzou o line coach and Adrian Klemm who used to coach in the NFL for the Patriots o line and also at Oregon and USC. He also knows Courtney Morgan. I read that Bama may also bring in an assistant o line coach. Maybe one of these guys will be the assistant and the other the head O line coach?

Seems like recruiting is less valuable a skill now as the checkbook does that . Need a coach/technician over recruiting ability perhaps
