Maybe Charlie can call plays from the booth as analyst.



Analyst can't have that type game day involvement.

He'd have to be promoted.

Sources say nothing has changed with Alabama's defensive play-calling. Charlie Strong isn't calling plays, per multiple sources.

If that were the case, one of the Crimson Tide's 10 on-field assistants would have to move off the field, and that isn't happening.

I suppose Charlie could make a play call "suggestion" loudly enough in the booth that it's overheard on the headsets or it could be repeated by an on-field coach in the booth.

Hypothetically, how would anyone know if Charlie was calling plays down to Golding on the field?

Should’ve said a quarter of the salary, but it is funnier the way it came out.

The first giveaway would be forcing a 3 and out

That’s the only way I know this can work. But again how would anyone know?

I dunno. I’m hopeful we get better and that’s all I can say.

If we are more aggressive and have a few good series I’m going to go ahead and say this is probably true.

If we look like 1 hour red lamp slaw, I’m saying it isn’t.

I'm looking for a post I've made in the past, but I'm almost positive there's a restriction on how many headsets vs headphones you can have in the booth.

Have been getting questions about a tweet going around about Alabama's defensive coordinator situation. No, Alabama has not made a change at defensive coordinator.

Here is what Saban said earlier today: “First of all, I don't think the call is necessarily the issue. I think the execution of the call has been the issue.” Haven’t heard of a 180 on that.

Dan Quinn just got canned. I'm sure he is owed a ton of money so he could be available on the cheap.

It won’t be a coordinator switch that’s not what anyone is saying.

exactly. Which makes what Zenitz said kinda weird. Like he knows there’s a change in who’s calling the plays but he can’t come out and just confirm it.

He needs help with some airfare, and getting his bags to the airport. Somebody watch him get on the plane before leaving. Just GTFO
