Anyone notice the glare Dabol sent CNS's way after his tirade?

[CoastGhost]

I noticed he didn't talk back! :biggrin:

 

[gamersfuel]

well it was a glare. but who knows what he was thinking. possibly not even glaring because of the butt chewing. could have. only Daboll knows

 

[Redwood Forrest]

I have never been big on criticizing play calling You can check my record on that. However, passing the dang ball late in the game with a three score lead was NOT good play calling.

But here is the one that WAS JUST PLAIN STUPID NO MATTER WHO CALLED IT -- INCLUDING OUR HEAD COACH. Backed up on our five yard line we HANDED the ball off two or three times. That made me insane. I told my wife you never risk a handoff on five lard line when you are trying to run the clock out. WHAT THE HECK! Who ever called those plays needs a pay cut and sent to Football 101 classes.

Saban chewing Dabol out was a lot more refreshing than watching DuBose clap incessantly when Bruce Arians called a ill advised pass late in the IB. Still chapped about that after all these years.

I love it. I spent 24 years in the Army. You learn very quickly to take {butt} chewing in stride. Daboll and Saban are fine. In today's politically correct and snowflake environment a lot of people think its the end of the world. It happens. Some will say "but not in public". Maybe Saban should have called a time out and took his OC into the medical tent for privacy. :biggrin:

Not sure who you were responding to, but I had asked in the beginning of this thread if anyone noticed Daboll's following expression as Saban was walking away from him AFTER he had cleaned his clock. I didn't have a problem with what Saban did. I assumed that Saban was angry about things not being done and he must have felt that Daboll should have known what he expected. But I did pick up on Daboll's facial expression.
And yes...I spent almost 10 years. 9 years and 9 mo in the military world. I know what it feels like to take a reaming. Thanks for your service my man. I was a non-com myself.

If you watch ESPN coaches film room version, they talk about Saban getting on to Daboll. They go on to say that coach wants to run the ball and get the game over to avoid injuries. Then one series later, Jennings gets hurt and one coach says "this is what I was talking about, this is why he wanted this game over" I found it surprising that they all came to the same conclusion about those circumstances very quickly......but there are no guarantees , freak things do happen but its a shame they have to keep happening to this team at the same position

I watched that and they were spot on, and it was pretty entertaining getting an unbiased opinion from most of them. I got tired of listening to Dino and his Clemson discussions though. It was funny, they kind of ignored Major Applewhite at times.....like ignore the new kid. And they sure talked about the Texas kids alot during both games. lol

They also talked about Tua.....but only mentioned him as the Hawaiian kid or the lefty because "I cant pronounce his name" lol

Thumbs up!

I give and take {butt} chewings almost daily.

You are correct people are just too soft in today's World.

All you have to do is watch the SEC video where Rogers talks about Hurts and Fromm. Look at the examples he shows where Jalen is not executing. He didn't even show the touchdown to Ridley where Ridley was wide open in the middle of the end zone and Jalen didn't see him. Daboll is calling good plays - we are not executing those plays. I can understand why our receivers are feeling the way they are. True - some are dropped passes. But Jalen makes them harder to catch in a lot of cases

It doesnt matter who the OC is.....pass plays are not going to be executed with much precision at all. It is what it is. Bama needs a QB whisperer.

I wonder who our 10th assistant will be for next year? Have we hired one yet? If not, it need to be someone extra for O line or QB .

Absolutely agree!!

By definition developing QB's is an inexact science. One only has to look at the NFL to understand that.

 

[InsaneMustang]

Is it possible the glare was a look of - "you're right, my bad."

Absolutely. One has to put on their big boy pants when they are being paid millions to make the correct play calls. I got my {butt} chewed many times for a heck of a lot less money. This is much ado about nothing IMO.

I've cleaned up this thread, but any more posts where people try to side-step the profanity filter will result in suspensions. Ignorance of our rules is no excuse - read the site policies and follow them or you're gone.

Clear as mud?

 

[ROTYDE]

I took it as more of a grin or a chuckle , a recognition that he had been there before.

 

[USCBAMA]

Watched a replay and the Clemson player crossed the line of scrimmage and that's where initial contact was made and then pushed upfield.
With regard to the Saban/Daboll confrontation, I said it regarding another coach last year, and will say it every time. I think it is wrong and most always detrimental to verbally abuse a person in a leadership position in front of his/her subordinates.

Who initiated contact and where that happened is really a moot point here. The Bama player was an eligible receiver who was clearly blocking downfield on a forward pass play that was beyond the line of scrimmage. The rest is window dressing to the debate, it should have been offensive PI, just as it should have been last year (actually twice last year).

 

[ontopp]

We all have the advantage of the after the call succeeded or didn't. I think for me you go with the Flo of the game who's doing what to the other. I'm going to go back to Ray Perkins days, it was 4th and something around 2 mins left Can't remember a lot other than I didn't agree with him on punting the ball back to Tenn simply because they were having success moving the ball against us. But he was and NFL coach that's the norm for them. I think we we're behind we never got the ball back and lost.

 

[theballguy]

Maybe he was thinking about what boxes he'll use to move back to Boston.

Yeah, I would go to Foxboro too -- after all, Daboll was a positions coach before and if he had a chance to be OC for the Pats, well, that's where I'd go too. It's not like Bama OC is Daboll's dream job and it probably shouldn't be.

This is how I see it too. Nothing really major. Daboll knows what Saban expects, and he is perfectly fine with that.

Thanks. I was only throwing that out there because I wasn't sure of all the points in determining a pick/OI or not.
