We were 4 points away from a 1 vs 2 undefeated matchup in the sec title game against Georgia with BOB, Pete, and an injured Bryce Young. I really think we're going to be fine with these hires.
BREAKING Kevin Steele hired as DC
- Thread starter CrimsonDollar
- Start date
Seems like Steele will at least reestablish toughness and some of that energy and focus we all want to see. Also, I suspect this is his last hurrah so maybe he comes with a different perspective/appreciation? Be nice to see a younger guy on staff be named as Co-DC or at least a larger role. The hot name or young guy doesn’t always work out…it’s about more than winning the “press conference/ news cycle” but I’d prefer to win both! 
We probably win a title last year with Steele calling the defense.
Put it this way.
We wouldn’t have given up 52 to Tennessee, and we wouldn’t have failed to stop LSU a single time after halftime.
This is an upgrade over golding in every aspect except recruiting. Our inside linebackers may actually develop again.
Clearly a stop gap until Pruitt can return at some point. And much much much better than Grantham.
Everybody needs to step back from the ledge.

Here are KS's Scoring D's since leaving Bama in 2008
Clemson 2009, 2010, 2011 - 20.4 PPG (24th NCAA) 18.8 PPG (13th) 29.9 PPG (81st NCAA)
LSU 2015 - 24.3 PPG (41st NCAA)
AU 2016-2020 - 17.1 PPG (7th NCAA) 18.5 PPG (11th NCAA) 19.2 PPG (14th) 19.5 PPG (17th NCAA) 24.7 PPG (38th NCAA)
Miami 2022 - 26.8 PPG (67th NCAA)
His best season is 2016 with AU but if you notice his PPG got worse every single year and 2017-2022 are Pete Golding level numbers.
His average PPG for those 10 seasons with other teams is... 21.92 PPG
HARD PASS on that!!!
This is a TERRIBLE and LAZY hire.

Can’t repeat what I said when the alert came in but the wife said “WHAT’S WRONG?!”
Not excited about this at all.

Alabama fans: You can't look at the stats when discussing how bad Bill O'Brien is.

Color me extremely skeptical..................this isn't a good hire. If he proves me wrong I will admit it.............but I would have thrown the bank at Schumann.............SMH hard
It may not have been my pick, however the guy who gets paid 10 mil and hates to lose seems to think this is the best way and I have great faith in him. However you choose to view these hires they a huge upgrade from what we had.
Time will tell.............OC, yes possibly a really good hire................Steele? I dont think so.
Miami was 85 in ppg in 2021 before steele arrived.
