Expected. I don't particularly like it with the baggage but he does bring a lot to the table.

Maybe due to only 1-2 years Co-OC at Tulsa, 1 year OC at Texas, and no NFL experience and limited to air raid expertise, as compared to guys like Daboll & Godsey. So, seems like he's not as good of a fit with Saban's offensive philosopy.
Well, when will Kiesau likely be named as OC?

Looks like it's gonna be Daboll. I suspect Kiesau had better odds than Gilbert.Posted on 2/13/17 at 4:52 pm to TidalSurge1
If you don't win, the odds don't matter.

Iirc, the violations weren't too major, Bama proposed his "punishment" to the NCAA, they OKd it, then Bama imposed it, soon parted ways, end of story.
Edit: Here's a little about it: LINK

What the hell is going on around here? Now, we are hiring folks for jobs that aren't even available.

Prior reporting was that Pannunzio interviewed for TE coach, which seemed a bit odd since he's been in an administrative role for years.
I think Pannunzio's role would be different than Dickens, who is mainly a football PR guy. However, we have Ed Marynowitz too, who's a player personnel / scouting guy and looks years younger than Pannunzio. Like Pannunzio, he was with the Eagles.
This is from Pannunzio's wiki bio:

LINK ]5 things you should know about Alabama offensive coordinator target
Sec Country | Feb 13, 2017
Sec Country | Feb 13, 2017

New England Patriots assistant coach Brian Daboll is expected to interview with Alabama football coach Nick Saban for the vacant offensive coordinator position, according to FoxSports’ Bruce Feldman.
Saban is searching for someone to replace Steve Sarkisian, who left for the same position with the Atlanta Falcons.
Daboll coaches tight ends for the Patriots under Bill Belichick.
Here are five things you should know about Daboll:
1. He’s worked with Nick Saban
It’s been a while, but Daboll worked as a graduate assistant under Saban at Michigan State (1998-99). Saban has a long history of hiring guys who have worked for him at some point.
It also helps that Daboll worked under Bill Belichick, whom Saban respects and admires as much as anyone in the coaching profession.
2. He was born in Canada
Daboll, 41, was born in Welland, Ontario, but attended high school in New York. Daboll was a football letterman in high school, and became a two-year starter in college at the University of Rochester.
3. He spent time as a defensive assistant
After working as a graduate assistant at Michigan State, Daboll had a brief stint as a defensive assistant with the Patriots in 2000. That didn’t last long, however, as Daboll moved to the offensive side of the ball in 2002. He’s coached offense in some capacity each season since.
4. Three stops as an offensive coordinator
Daboll got his first big break as the Cleveland Browns offensive coordinator in 2009. He spent the 2009-10 seasons as the Browns signal caller on offense.
From there, Daboll had one-year stops with the Miami Dolphins (2011) and the Kansas City Chiefs (2012). After spending one year as a coaching assistant (2013) with the Patriots, he was bumped up to tight ends coach in 2014.
5. Was expected to be in line for Patriots offensive coordinator job
According to Jeff Howe of the Boston Herald, Daboll was being groomed to replace offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels whenever he decided to chase another head coaching opportunity.
McDaniels will be with the team during the 2017 season, but his future beyond that is uncertain.

Thanks. That's good stuff. I feel better about the possible or likely hire.

I also posted a couple of more detailed articles about Daboll's OC jobs on page 14 of this thread.

I completely forgot about losing Napier so we have 3 openings if you include the new 10th assistant spot.
Posted on 2/13/17 at 6:35 pm to TidalSurge1
Maybe I missed something but not sure why one of the 5 things I need to know about who Saban is going to hire is they are from Canada
Posted on 2/13/17 at 7:12 pm to TideWarrior
He would open up that pipeline to Canada. Duh.
