Yikes. Yeah, not sure why he signed up for that after taking Washington to the national championship game.

It's the same concern I'd have going to the Seahawks with Carroll evidently staying with the organization a different role. That's gonna make for a weird dynamic.

Cos his Washington recruiting class is like #38 and they're returning 4 starters - dude is walking away when his stock is highest. That Huskies team is going to crater.

This season would've given them a huge recruiting boost and made them a prime time destination for portal kids. Saban's shadow was gonna loom huge over whoever took that job without him literally being there staring over their shoulder. I just don't see how that's gonna work at all.

Regarding the Alabama job, somebody has to be the guy after the guy. Never an easy spot to be in though.

Seems someone on staff is a reasonable route. Then when it doesn't work out it's easy to move on and it's super appealing again to outsiders

ENSD is early December - most of the best players are signed up before the National Championship is played.

He's clearly not a very good recruiter.

Saturdaydownsouth.com spilled a bunch of digital ink on how it would/should/could be Lane Kiffin. I guess there wasn't anyone real worthy on staff since those that might have been qualified already moved on to other programs.

Im nothing like them. Im the ultra rare type of doing what I say. I mean Ive stopped following the NFL as a whole. Im 100% panther fan, just happen to keep up with NFL with the bit and pieces I get following panthers. Well, given my spending, i truly dont matter to the NFL....

Sorry I wasn’t lumping u in with those morons. I’m just saying people are addicted to the NFL.  It is a force.

    • the way it should be. the way it has to be.  when you get a rookie (no matter where he is drafted), you don't expect him to play like a vet or even get a grasp on NFL offenses like a vet. if you intend to have him running the offense, you build the offense around what they do and what clicks.  not Young's fault, but he was sold as someone who would be a rookie but has the mind of a seasoned vet. guess what...he wasn't. reich and "his" crew had no idea how to work with a rookie QB or groom one. they thought they knew, but they didn't and it was obvious in the lack of plan they had for him. their plan was to treat him like he was a seasoned vet. even with that, i don't think they had any clear vision not just with Bryce, but with the offense. There was no cohesion between all the various coaches. nothing fit together and reich wasn't a strong enough leader to pull it all together.  i like the approach of starting over with the fundamentals and i think it's good for any new coaching staff or new QB to a system. you don't know what to expect so you start from the beginning to make sure you're on the same page from the beginning. and as you get more used to each other, you learn what works, what could really work well, and what won't work and you form the playbook around that. contrast that with chud who had been working on a playbook for years and just wanted to use it regardless of whether the situation called for it or the personnel he had (on the team or even on the field) fit what he wanted to call.   or last year when we had coaches from completely different backgrounds trying to put something together that was supposed to be a blend of what each brought to the table, but just ended up being a sloppy predictable mess that didn't fit anyone on the team, QB, WRs, and OL.
    • I've always been super pumped up for the upcoming season but I've never been so uninterested in a new season. After six years under Dipper I've been left at end of season drunken and wallowing in my own piss... not invested in the team right now but hope Canales and Morgan make a good team together...
    • There's no discussion anymore, it's just a circle jerk about how bad Bryce is, and it got old a while ago.
