Half the people on this forum would be an upgrade to what we had. I'll take it.
The same thing you have been seeing for the most part. We have our own playbook and Rees will add a little flavor and call plays. Looking forward to seeing how it works out.I have no idea what to expect tbh
.
Although it was never widely discussed publicly, this media outlet revealed a few years ago that when then-head coach Brian Kelly considered successors to Chip Long as offensive coordinator after Rees’ debut coordinator performance in the 2019 Camping World Bowl against Iowa State, Rees had a flight planned for Tuscaloosa to meet with Saban.
Rees was elevated to offensive coordinator, the flight south was canceled and Rees began what is, up to this point, a three-year run as the head of Notre Dame’s offense.
At the time, the position of offensive coordinator likely wasn’t on the table at Alabama for the 27-year-old Rees. It probably was quarterbacks coach or some title that would have placed Rees in a No. 2 or 3 spot behind a seasoned offensive coach.
I don’t think we have really used a TE since OJ!I think Its a good hire. Keep in mind that they will run the Alabama offense, just with a little Coach Rees flare. I also believe Nick was impressed with how Notre Dame used the TEs, as Nick has made an effort the last 4-5 years to try and develop that position as an offensive weapon. It just hasn’t worked out.
CTR is young, can relate to players and should be a recruiting force With the Alabama name behind him . Plus , it’s a little bit of a middle finger to Baton Rouge’s Dirty Dancer!
What if he calls 3 runs up the middle with the Jumbo Package?As long as he never calls 3 straight pass plays from the 1 inch line and in the shotgun, I will like him.
Funny, The trend in the NFL is 12-13 personnel, same for some FBS teams . You can do so much with those formations, especially with athletic TEs. Yet, Notre Dame fans complain about the 2-3 TE sets. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t want to see it all the time as we simply have too much wideout talent, but it would create Mismatches especially in short yardage.I don’t think we have really used a TE since OJ!
He is.Btw, anyone know if he is a QB coach?
I imagine he'll add the QB Coach title at Alabama as well but we'll have to wait and see.Notre Dame (2017–2019)
Quarterbacks coach
Notre Dame (2020–2022)
Offensive coordinator & quarterbacks coach
Nope. Remember that viral video of him cussing out his QB from up in the booth?My first question is does coach games from the field?
even then, we coulda used Howard more. On a per game basis Latu wasn't that far behindI don’t think we have really used a TE since OJ!
