Bama Game Thread: Official Game Thread - Postgame Thread...

This is what I expect to happen in offseason:
-Changes on coaching staff in the off season on both side of the ball. Lack of preparation showed up again on consistent basis.

-We will see few players entering portal in next week or so. Some you will not be happy with. Some will be expected.

- This is pure speculation: I do not see Milroe coming back to Alabama next year in any form. If he does come back, we risk losing other qbs.

This is not the end of the world for the team. I think the team needed this season to be humbled and hopefully grow up a lot in the offseason. Not just for the players but for the coaches.

I think you may be right, but I would also expect some players to come from the portal as well............and I think Milroe will be encouraged to take his show on the road

Great TD catch by Williams. Oh, wait, forgot about refs

If they don't make being covered up or not a reviewable play, then they should just eliminate referees.

I turned the game off at halftime to save my blood pressure. Sadly I saw it coming. Milroe was off and the defense wasn’t playing well. Defense wasn’t going to be able to hold up with the way the offense was going.

 

[BamaSC]

TL;DR, this coaching staff is not Alabama level.

 

[TideEngineer08]

It’s not fun anymore.

 

[Evil Crimson Dragon]

I can’t wrap my brain around it. I don’t want to ride him too hard because he’s a kid, but Milroe may be the worst starting quarterback in all of football. I understand he’s super athletic, but that does you no good when every team we play knows he can’t throw the football. His football IQ is terrible and if it wasn’t for some great catches his completion percentage would probably be somewhere in the 30 to 40% range. The fact that coaches can’t figure this out baffles me.

They can...........but they are held hostage to his lank thing.........

 

[CrimsonNagus]

You can't fire DeBoer after one year. But his seat is a little hotter than I'd expected going into next year

Yes you can…

You’re fired!

See, it’s that easy.

I just don't understand how we have the worst depth at qb for 20 years. Our backup never seems to be good enough to play, yet every other school can bring in a 3rd string true freshman and have them ball out. Yet our stance is always that (insert mediocre qb here (2 & 4)) give us the best chance to win.

It’s not that simple…at all. There are many factors as to why Milroe is still playing. It has nothing to do with how good or bad Ty is.

 

[DzynKingRTR]

As I said before the season, you wanna be a pro? we'll treat you like a pro.

... lots of stuff I deleted before I hit POST REPLY ...

Can you ban or suspend yourself?

 

[GrayTide]

Since I have nothing positive to say about the entire football program, I will sign off for the night.

It just perplexes me that you can have your season on the line to play for the SECC and a playoff spot, and you show up and play like you don’t know what the game of football is.

And as far as the coaches go, I don’t give a rip if you can beat Georgia and LSU if you can’t coach your team well enough to beat middling conference bottom dwellers. You are useless to me. Find a new job.

This is unfortunately a problem with the majority of coaches and programs. We were spoiled with coach Saban and his ability to keep the team focused every week. I think guys like DeBoer and Kiffin are actually the norm.

The only way I can make this season make sense, specifically this game and the Tennessee game, Ty Simpson must suck. That’s the only explanation I’ll accept for not giving him a shot.

 

[RammerJammer14]

I am souring on DeBoer. Team prep and attitude is also on him.i keep getting told he is a winner, but he sure is building a habit of losing to bad teams. It’s unacceptable here. We are breaking all of the wrong records under this guy.

 

[ua86]

I didn't watch after the 7 min mark, which is something I have NEVER done. I just got back on the board to see if anybody can get a low luster on this total turd. Not looking promising so far.

 

[rolltide_21]

He can potentially fix it but he has to be prepared to see some players off.............Saban retired because he didnt want to deal with it

It’s going to take the LANK players getting out of the program. That’s coming sooner than later.

excellent post! DeBoer has 2 coordinators that are totally out of their depth. Will he address it and are we looking at the same guys next year?

We've moved on from small sample sizes. The fact of the matter for Milroe is that when the OL doesn't perform well he folds. In games where he consistently has time early in the game, he's unbelievable... but when it's clear the OL is going to be average or below-average, he wilts. Championship-caliber QB's find ways to perform decently when their OL have rough games. He also looks afraid to get hurt - that's the only reason he consistently veers east-west instead of cutting north-south on runs. I'm sure that's because of his NFL aspirations, but the part he needs to grasp is that he won't play in the League if he doesn't play unafraid to get hurt. Coaching-wise, either our offensive limitations or our inability to make adjustments kill us in these types of games. With CKD running things, I find it hard to believe that it's all about adjustments... so I'll default to the personnel.

Let me be clear : That won't be necessary. If I was him in a position... My mind would be made up and ain't nothing changing it. I'm just saying. I just don't see him coming back.

 

[UAH]

I yelled at the tv when he did that. It was so bad. All he had to do was follow the Olineman.

Milroe has consistently run out of bounds or as you say drift into a tackle. Never has been willing to go inside and take a hit for a 1st down.

Yeah, I thought CKD was a good hire, but after a most of the season review, his apparent lack of ability to get a team ready to play every week means he's not ready for the big time.

 

[Rolltidegirl205]

I really feel like many players will transfer and the program will lose a few recruits as well.
Then again, I didn't expect post Nick Saban era to be easy...
