Obviously wideouts

But I would like an experienced corner and a punt return specialist.

Already have Ricks coming in. I don't know how many spots are gonna be available, but maybe they will take a look at another o lineman if they find someone they like.

Malachi Moore was hurt and just flat out beat out by Brian Branch, who was in the same class and much better in run support as the Star (nickel back).

Don't forget Gibbs coming from GA Tech. This guy is a Swiss army knife and you can't touch him in a phone booth. He will be a deadly receiver and running back for us. And, he can return punts.

I can’t believe I’m saying this, but a guy who can consistently get 10yds would be amazing.

Golding and the defense gave the offense multiple chances throughout the year, including last night. Out of all the things to pick out, the defense wasn't the issue until the end.

The more glaring, and unfathomable thing, is just how bad the development on the offensive side of the ball has been. That the best program over the past decade, which is able to supposedly recruit at high levels, puts out a line as bad as was seen this season is mind-blowing. Either guys are getting on campus and not being developed, or there have been monumental scouting misses.

Ideally, O'Brien gets another NFL gig and takes Marrone with him. Bring in a new OC to tear down and build back from the ground-up in his own style. The changes in philosophy the past few years have probably factored into things a great deal as well, from jumping from Daboll's pro concepts to a simplistic "see spot, throw to spot, regardless if a man is there" the next year, to Sarkisian's mixed-pro, to O'Brien's heavy NFL style.

That’s not what has occurred at all. It’s Alabama’s offense. And guys have added wrinkles and called plays according to personnel.

It's exactly what has happened. Whether it's by need or by want, same result. 2018's rpo scheme isn't in the neighborhood of what O'Brien wanted to do. O'Brien tried to sprinkle it in throughout the year, but he's not that guy. Part of the reason the playcalling seemed disjointed. Sarkisian did a great job keeping the rpo scheme, but the jump from 2018 Locksley to 2019 Sarkisian is smaller, than from Sarkisian to O'Brien.

Again, philosophy differences.

It’s the same offense. Tailored to the personnel each season.

Can we pick up some fans who won't complain about who is or isn't playing?
