The fact you can't actually address what I said and just use insults says more about you and others.
If you actually comprehended what I said, I'm highlighting the fact QB play is down and that has allowed him to be so inconsistent yet garner Natjonal praise
I get it though actually discussing the points with one-liner insults is hard for people around here.

Nick Sheridan was nomaited for the Broyle’s award. What a joke. Motherfricker scored 3 points last game.

I do not think either coordinator will be terminated but one or both may leave for another opportunity. If they want to be here, they'll be here in 2025.
They're probably on 2 year contracts anyway, so it would likely be financially prudent to give them their two years and evaluate from there.
I think both could argue their issues are scheme fit issues with the roster they inherited. They won't get that excuse in 2025 with a 2nd full offseason and more talent acquisition of scheme fits.

Kd is being evaluated - this year - with respect to how he is handling certain things many of us don’t see directly.
I will repeat, his staff has done him no favors this year, and I’m not just talking about the coordinators. There are some guys coaching positions they don't have any business coaching.
Don't expect any change on the head guy now, but this year is not a “throw away” as some have speculated. Evaluations of this year will impact the future.

Agreed. Considering what he's had to work with in the secondary I'm not really all that down on the defense. I'd only wish to see more pressure from the front 4 on a consistent basis but I'm not just gonna throw up my arms and scream Vandy & Oklahoma.

I don't disagree, and yes, he could've handled the OU game differently. Turnovers are difficult to overcome, though.
The biggest drain on this defense all season has been the offense's inability to take control of games.
Vandy, OU, Tenner. The offense had a prime opportunity to break uga's back after the Beck fumble in the 4th qtr up 15 points. Offense shite the bed in all 4.
In 2 of the 4, the offense scored points for the other team directly via Pick 6s.

You say this like he has pulled a Belichick and we have Matt Patricia and Joe Judge doing stuff they have literally zero professional history with, but the only position coach on the staff who is coaching a position he had no history with before working here is Bryan Ellis the TE coach.

Honestly, he seemed to have gotten some better effort in the 2nd half but Milroe pretty much singlehandedly lost the game with back-to-back interceptions that led to a quick touchdown on short field and a pick 6.
Alabama's offense not only put 14 points off turnovers on the board. They did OU's work of bleeding the clock away for them too with several long possessions that netted no points.
I am not impressed with Wommack but on the balance the offense has lost more games for Alabama in 2024 than the defense.

They just like Vandy successfully ran the clock out by controlling the ball and running all over us to the tune of 200 plus rushing yards. If you think that’s success we just disagree. If you think holding them to 10 points wins the game you’re wrong, it was possession.
Edit, also the Offense didn’t help obviously but the defense certainly could have done better.

The fact the couldn't even adjust made it worse. He just left our edges wide open while they attacked the edge all night.

Understatement of the year.
Without Milroe giving OU 14 points and the refs erasing a legit TD, the ball game is tied in the 4th qtr. You wanna bet against BAMA winning that game if it's 10-10 with 14 minutes to go??
WTF are you talking about?

Pretty solid point. Outside of the Vandy game, the D has given the offense multiple turnovers that resulted in either no points or taking barely any time off the clock. Pretty sad to think about.

In an interview during the spring, 1 of our coaches said they want to play alot of young players early so they will have game experience because they plan on having a long season and they will be needed. They were focused on the results and not the process. Culture change

Seems like a pretty sound strategy to me.

Remember when folks were saying we upgraded coordinators two months ago? There’s no way I’d take Wommack over Steele or even Golding, and I’m starting to think Rees was better than Sheridan. Rees has an SEC Champ ring with a less experienced Milroe.

Tough spot to be in. From my perspective neither has made any overt attempts to alter gameplans when necessary.
Past the first half of the Georgia game, I haven't seen anything that puts Sheridan over Rees last year. I think Rees did a little more when things got tougher down the stretch. Both were saddled with the same issues. Inconsistent O-line (and terrible snaps last year), a talented QB with low processing ability. Hard to fault either when those issues collide in gameplay.
We are in year one of a defensive philosophy shift so we still have players geared to the old philosophy. To me that means when we lined up against Vandy and then OU we should have been able to shift to a better run stopping group.
Neither has shown much in the way of innovation or using the talent on had effectively. I have to give them a year one break I guess but that OU performance really makes it hard.
As for the head man, I lost a lot of faith in him against OU. Same as I did when Jalen put forth that half-assed slide tackle. If KD's letting players run the assylum now, that won't change going forward and he's a dead stick. If he's not and just believed Jalen was the best option then I guess it is what it is and he becomes a players coach. Neither is a good to me.
Being honest, the last 2-3 years have been pointing in this direction. I think Nick pulled a great season out of the ether. I see the oline correction taking at least 2 years. The qb correction can come sooner, but whomever takes over will still need some good wheels and a faster CPU. Alabama is very mortal until those get corrected. Perception is everything, along with NIL dollars.

The main problem we have is that the roles in run defense are considerably different and players are asked to execute stuff that they probably aren't best suited for doing. I'd say amongst our front seven (DL+LB+Box Safety) that Jihaad Campbell is the only player who is a better fit in this scheme than he was in Saban's scheme. Even so, some of the same reasons he wasn't an every down backer in 2023 are true in 2024. He can rundown plays off pure athleticism at times but he sometimes takes a false step or bad angle in pursuit.
