Some in the media are making Scott Cochran's departure out to be a big deal. But it's just not, imo. From what I've seen, Saban didn't make much, if any, effort to get him to stay.
They keep saying the he’s the best in the business, but he’s not going to even be in that position anymore. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

Maybe Cochran will coach both S&C and just some of the special teams (perhaps only kickoff & kickoff return) initially at UGA. 
Punt & PAT can be coached by offensive staff and Punt return by defensive staff.

But aren't there are rules about how much time an on-field coach can spend coaching kids? I'm assuming there aren't restrictions for S&C coaches?

Something is going on. I heard that some coaches are happy to see him to move on....

I think the rumors about Feld being interviewed are true.

Any update?
Aaron Feld was at Mississippi State when Greg Byrne was AD there.

I have no sauces. I'm probably just hoping and maybe reading too much into it. But, he hasn't posted anything on Twitter in 4 days, and he's only liked two tweets in that time, one about Kobe and this one:

Latest on Alabama interest in Aaron Feld, what they're saying
quote:
Has Nick Saban already honed in on who he wants to replace Scott Cochran as Alabama's strength coach? It would appear that way according to several college football insiders who believe the Crimson Tide's head coach is gunning for the top of the food chain with this hire.
Jon Wilner of The Mercury News reported on Tuesday he expected Alabama to "make a strong push to hire" Feld, who has SEC roots as an Alabama native. That was followed by Duck Territory analyst Matt Prehm saying Feld would certainly entertain a conversation with the Crimson Tide given his respect for Nick Saban and one of the nation's best programs.
"I 100 percent expect Alabama to pick up the phone and ask are you interested and I 100 percent expect Feld to consider it,” Prehm said Tuesday on the Duck Territory podcast. “He’s from that area. His wife is from Alabama. If Alabama is calling you, that’s one of those programs you have to take the phone call and consider.

Who is Aaron Feld and what would he bring to Alabama, if he was hired by Nick Saban?

“The moment I stop having fun with it, I’ll be done with it.”
This song lyric comes Grammy-winning rap artist, Aubrey “Drake” Graham and it epitomizes where Nick Saban is in his coaching career. He has won five national championships at Alabama and six overall, but he is not done being competitive.
Saban wants to continue having his foot on everyone’s neck and prove he is still king of college football. Not being afraid to learn, grow and evolve is a huge part of the process.
His role as a perfectionist is still causing him to attack weaknesses and maneuver in ways that will benefit the program and keep it atop the mountain.
With Scott Cochran leaving Alabama for Georgia, Aaron Feld is the name fans and media pundits are discussing to be the Crimson Tide’s next strength and conditioning coach.

RELATED: STRENGTH COACH AARON FELD REMOVES OREGON FROM TWITTER BIO
Feld, a native of Homewood, Ala., is coming off two successful years at Oregon as the head strength and conditioning coach.
He not only toughened the Ducks on defense in 2019 – 16.5 points per game allowed – but he also conditioned the program to a Pac-12 Championship.
Prior to Oregon, Feld was an assistant strength for the University of Alabama at Birmingham (football, 2012) while being the head strength coach for women’s basketball in 2013.
He volunteered at Alabama from 2013 to 2014, assisting the group to a Southeastern Conference Championship and an appearance in the first-ever College Football Playoff in the 2014 season.
The man with the iconic mustache was also at North Alabama from 2014-15, coaching all sports in strength and conditioning. Feld helped the Georgia Bulldogs (2015-17) advance to the CFP National Championship Game in 2017, despite its loss to Saban and the Crimson Tide.
If hired, Feld gives the Tide someone who is well-versed in the nuances of training analytics.
The style he had at Oregon was one where players got their maximum reps in; however, the regiment was not overly strenuous. Student-athletes reached their target goal, but they still had energy and their body weren’t easily sore.
Feld’s philosophy dives strictly into flexibility and injury prevention, as he does not place a lot of force on the body.
His idea is providing the physical make-up of athletes an opportunity to rest and recuperate.
Seeing how both he and Jeff Allen (Alabama’s head athletic trainer) stay on the cutting edge of technology, pairing the two together would work wonders for the Tide. Both could come up with ways to not only cut down injuries, but also get the team back to being completely conditioned.

Announce it already. He's the guy I want.
Admittedly, I couldn't put a name to another strength coach in the world, excluding Cochran.

Feld's interview with Saban might've been done without him physically traveling to UA this week. Seeing conflicting info on that. Tim Watts and some "insider" posters say Saban may interview several guys. Their names are being kept pretty quiet.
