We add De Boer / Grub vs Rees

What do you think that would add to our per game scoring average? Is 8 points reasonable? More or less?

Does the new OLine coach result in equal or better output?

Does the reduction in bad snaps result in equal or better?

JAM/Haynes/Young vs Jase / Roydell equal or better?

All of those combined I will guess 10 points per game improvement.

That would put Alabama at 44 points per game average.

Defense

Front 6 or 7 - better or worse? I think it will be close to a push.

CB play - better or worse? I will guess 7 points per game worse. Younger at CB but the system should be easier for them to play fast.

Safety play - better or worse? I will guess 6 points per game worse. Easier system for them to play fast. replacing a very good Safety and a pretty good safety - but both were 1st year players for Alabama.

SO that would put us at an average of 13 points per game worse. or 32 points per game average.

So we would be looking at 44 to 32 season average scoring. That should give Alabama bout 9 to 10 wins and maybe even a playoff birth.

The sky may be gray but it is not falling.

I’m in agreement with this unless we inherited some experienced secondary which I think we might.

I think this all makes a lot of sense, but also assumes good QB play. That's my biggest concern for the season, will we see a major improvement in ability to make the right decisions in a timely manner and execute at that position? Time will tell, and it seems like we hired the right staff to maximize the potential there. I'm excited for the future despite all the gloom and doom in the past 24 hours.

You guys are being crazy optimistic at this point.

New offensive and defensive systems, with basically all new starters on the majority of the team.

Next year is a transition year. If he goes 9-3, that would be an amazing job

Worse, 7-10 is realistic id say

This is obvious, see CB

I'm most looking forward to the WR's being coached up better than they were the last few years.
