quote:if the NCAA cared so much about freeze he would have gotten a hell of a lot more penalty than a 2 game head coach suspension in a year he doesn't even have a head coach job, and no restrictions of any kind on any other position. Essentially the only problem the NCAA apparently has with freeze is that he was not ready or willing to monitor his staff enough, which obviously is not an issue here
The difference in Freeze and Saban’s previous rehab hires is none of his previous ones had real NCAA issues. They had personal demons but no compliance issues. Freeze is a different animal with a lot bigger problems. And had the stupidity or ignorance to act bulletproof and dare the NCAA and rivals to catch him. They did.

UA announces hire of Jeff Banks as special teams coordinator
quote:
Alabama head coach Nick Saban announced the hiring of Jeff Banks Thursday to serve as the special teams coordinator for the Crimson Tide.
“We are pleased to be able to add a coach the caliber of Jeff Banks to our staff as special teams coordinator,” Saban said in a release. “Jeff is well-respected across the country for his knowledge of the game and his ability to recruit. He is a great teacher and someone who will help our football team be successful. We are pleased to welcome Jeff and his family to Tuscaloosa.
Banks comes to Alabama after five years as the tight ends and special teams coordinator for Kevin Sumlin at Texas A&M. The Aggies boasted one of the nation’s top special teams units, ranking third nationally in net punting in 2017 and seventh in 2016. A&M also featured a top punt return unit, ranking second nationally this past season, averaging 17.1 ypr. He coached punter Drew Kaser to All-America honors in 2013 after averaging 47.4 ypp.
“I am thrilled to have the opportunity to join Coach Saban’s staff at The University of Alabama and work with such a talented group of student-athletes,” Banks said in a release. “Coach Saban has built an unbelievable program that has a long tradition of success. I’m really excited to get out on the road recruiting, and I look forward to doing my part to help continue the success this program has enjoyed.”
Prior to arriving at Texas A&M in 2013, Banks spent one season as the running backs coach and special teams coordinator at Virginia after having coached running backs and coordinated special teams for nine years at UTEP (2004-12). During his time in El Paso, Banks oversaw one of the top special teams units in Conference USA as the Miners led the league in special teams statistics in 2011 and 2012. In 2009, Banks’ running back Donald Buckram broke UTEP’s season rushing record that had stood for over 60 years by rushing for 1,594 yards.
Banks served as an assistant coach at Idaho State from 2000-03 where he was the special teams coordinator, recruiting coordinator and running backs coach. Idaho State led the nation in net punting twice in his three seasons. Banks got his coaching start as a graduate assistant under Mike Price at Washington State from 1998-2000, where he worked with the offense and the punters and kickers.
As a player, Banks was a two-time all-conference punter for Washington State, posting a 42.8 yard average as a junior and 43.4 yard average as a senior. In his final season, he led the Pac-10 and was No. 15 nationally while helping the Cougars go 10-2 and earn an invitation to the Rose Bowl. Banks was also selected to participate in the Senior Bowl.
Banks and his wife, Kori, have a daughter, Sydnei, and two sons, Gage and Tanner. Banks earned his bachelor’s degree in communications from Washington State in 1999.

I read that Locksley also compared himself to Suge Knight.

Won't be surprised to see Chris Weinke move from his analyst position to WR coach.

I guess it will either be Weinke or Freeze.

Big man been given the keys to the Air and ground assault.Lets see what he can do with Tua come A-day.
He had Tua last A-day game with the same super freshmen skills and they were running Debol stuff.
He was also here for the kiffin stuff we ran for jalen.
So he should have enough game film and being part of the offensive game plan meetings.
So he should be able to set this offense up without a Hitch.

Nick Saban has decided to promote Mike Locksley to offensive coordinator/QBs coach, sources tell ESPN. Locksley becomes the third former head coach to call offensive plays for the Tide under Saban. Locksley also had a chance to go to Florida State.

Some Penn State fan posted on BOL that they were hearing that Locksley may go after their WR coach and “Offensive Recruiting Coordinator”, Josh Gattis.
I don’t know anything about the guy but figured it was interesting enough to post.

Locksley has a number of ties to that Penn State staff. That doesn't surprise me.

Or maybe qb coach. I am pretty sure all the qbs would benefit from a coach that can actually coach the qb to get better. Locksley could still coach receivers and be the O.C.
