Reportedly, Sarkisian turned down an offer to be the Arizona Cardinals OC to come back to Bama...

Here’s what we know as of late Saturday evening about the Sarkisian situation as well as a couple other staff-related tidbits:
— AL.com can’t confirm that Sarkisian has been hired as of this moment. However, a couple sources mentioned him as a possibility for the offensive coordinator job on Friday and I can confirm that he was in Tuscaloosa today per sources. Sarkisian, who was an analyst at Alabama in 2016 and then briefly the Tide’s offensive coordinator before ultimately leaving for the Atlanta Falcons, was fired by the Falcons Dec. 31.
— Sarkisian wasn’t the only big name coach in town today. Notre Dame offensive coordinator Chip Long was also in Tuscaloosa today, according to sources. It looks like he could join the staff in some capacity even if/when Sarkisian is hired as offensive coordinator. A Birmingham native, Long has been the offensive coordinator at Notre Dame the last two years after one season as the OC at Memphis.
— One other interesting staff-related note: While it has been reported elsewhere that Butch Jones was set to join Mike Locksley’s staff at Maryland, sources have said that Jones is still currently working for Alabama. AL.com previously reported that while there was a good chance Jones could end up at Maryland, it was still possible Jones could end up staying at Alabama if he was promoted to an on-field job. There are multiple on-field jobs open on the staff right now after Locksley, quarterbacks coach Dan Enos and offensive line coach Brent Key all departed the program after the season.

Pro style simply does not score enough to win games where your defense lets you down.
No shite dumbass.
We witnessed that with the 99 snaps from the D when we lost with a raw Hurts against Clempson.

Smashing face sounds great, but if you aren't spreading teams out and moving the ball efficiently (which on standard downs it is always more efficient to pass than to run), you are leaving yourself vulnerable.
What are you 17?
More teams with a run attack have won it all over your fun and gun bullshite.
DEAL with the hire. Pretty sure Nick Saban knows what he's doing.

Ok I would be ok with Long and Stark

Locksley looked great BECAUSE of Tua. When it came down to being more than talent when we were matched, the Xs and Os caught up...
So you're saying that we're bringing in an OC from the NFL who scored 20 or less a game in a league where all the talent falls within a fairly narrow range and is relatively equal compared to college football because he's a great X's and O's mind?

I bet Stark could have landed Thibs though.. maybe we are eyeing some Cali west coast talent??

Whatever. I just can't understand the teeth-gnashing over this hire
Probably has more to do with the Championship Game and losing Enos and the other assistants because it’s not a bad hire by any means.

We have definitively established that was about azns and weed... I don't see how Sark could've helped.

It’s just been a rough month.. it will settle. If we get the OL coach from Memphis.. get Stark and Long. It will be a damn good staff even with Butch..lol

Y’all see amari cooper go after Marcus Peters after the game? Peters must’ve have said some dirty arse stuff. No surprise considering what type of character he is though

We also had the lead with a minute to go.
Why does this matter? Our offense scored 31 points in 16 possessions in that game.
Under two points per possession is bad.

Yeah all the teams with bama players are losing too. Whew 2019

Reggie Ragland plays for the Chiefs...
Posted on 1/12/19 at 10:38 pm to Goombaw
We got Ragland, dieter, and Hightower left I think. Not really any of our upper tier players. Least there is a few though.

Well, but I'm not sure human trafficking is a Oh, for the weed.
