Hill is more than serviceable with good blocking. I was watching Trent Richardson highlights yesterday and it was just wild to see how on so many of his runs he never got touched before reaching the line of scrimmage, if not 2 or 3 yards downfield. Last year it seemed like every time our RBs got the ball there were multiple dudes already in the backfield.

It’s a snowball problem too: can’t trust blocking so backs get happy feet.

DeBoer complimenting the team scares me. He should concentrate on improvement not how good they looked. Any time Bryant complimented the team, which was rare, they were bad and showed it on the field. The more he whined the better they were. Saban was similar but not as profound as Bryant.

Coach Bryant NEVER, EVER “whined”. He would for example sometimes say “We’re not very good at tackling” or “We aren’t very good at blocking”, etc. CPB would do that intentionally because he knew his players read what he said to the media and he hoped to motivate them to play better. He also hoped opposing teams would underestimate Bama.
To expect CKD to mimic or be just like CPB isn’t realistic. Completely different coaching styles and in a completely different era. Frankly, I don’t care how CKD approaches this as long as the team improves.
