Time to change the type of coaches you hire...

This is one of the main mistakes he made this year in getting rid of all prior analysts and not hiring any of his own.

---

He had 11 off-field analysts & special assistants (that I know of) this year:
Kirk Barron
Ryan Trevathan
Matt Shadeed
Mitch Dahlen
Jamey Mosely
Ali Smith
Ron McKeefery
John McNulty
Jay Nunez
Chuck Morrell
Mark Sheridan

EDIT to clarify the list is analysts/special assistants.

What a disingenuous list...

Out of that list FIVE could be considered as analyst and TWO of the analyst have SEC experience. We play against teams that a team of people who are SEC experienced who are experienced coordinators or players whose full job is to breakdown game film, advise tactics, strategies and adjustments.

KDB, Sheridan and Wommack have a team of comfortable allies, yes men and even a sibiling. The list is so bad it's included Strength and Conditining coaches and a female secretary who worked got KDB in Washington.

- Jay Nunez is not an analyst, he's our ST coach.

- Chuck Morrell is a special assistant to KDB, his old roommate he is not an off-field guy hired to be an anaylst

- Mitch Dahlen is an offensive analyst which came with KDB

- Mark Sheridan is our OCs brother

- Ron McKeefery is not an analyst, he was KDB's old Strength and Conditining coach with no on-field experience

- Kirk Barron is a young OL assistant coach

- Ryan Trevathan is an offensive analyst they hired from a Mississippi community College

- Matt Shadeed came with Wommack and is the only one including the Saban holdover with any SEC experience but he has mainly been an Strength and Conditioning coach. He is not an experienced analyst

- John McNulty and James Mosley are actually anaylst which were under Saban and brought back while the rest were let go.


Also, Ali Smith is a female assistant that helps KDB.



Any questions to why our defense can't adjust when Kirby's can is easily found here. Also I think John McNulty is the offensive guru I have been wondering who was helping Rees at halftime last season. He was one of two holdover KDB kept when he foolishly let go of Saban's entire analyst network.

Exactly. CKD has forgotten more about football and how to run a program than 99% of the people on this board will ever know. This doesn't mean he's flawless or never makes mistakes but to think or imply he doesn't know what he's doing is absurd.

Frankly, I don't care where an analyst or assistant came from as long as they know what they're doing and add value to the program.

I'm too lazy to go on, but you get the point. You should let KDB know that his staff isn't up to your standards.

I was using Saban's standard dummy.

Instead of owning the fact you gave a list half of which were strength and condition coaches and a secretary, you edit your post trying to explain why you are right and double down with this dumb shite.

Hey maybe our head coach can learn a thing or two from the GOAT head coach who had a team of analyst who studied and broke down film, helped with gameplaning and adjustments.

Hey maybe just maybe that is one of the reasons this coach struggled with adjustments and at times with gameplanning for Vandy and Oklahoma.

Seems Kirby Smart, Sark and others see the value in hiring a bunch of analyst who know the league and have experience with playing or coordinating.

No, don’t you know? We need R. Lee Ermey from Full Metal Jacket on the sidelines screaming, kicking asses and “coaching people up” and “turning boys into men” circa 1966. That’s all it takes, this newfangled stuff can get off my lawn

I mean you make this joke (apropos of nothing pretty much), but this honestly was a lot better. The sport focusing on developing kids athletically and personally is a lot healthier than the current situation of bidding wars for high school seniors based on hype. You might think this is better for the athletes, but the timeline of pro athlete bankruptcies suggests they're not being well served in the long run.

JFC, this is the last response you'll get from me on this matter.

Yes, including his personal assistant in that list was a mistake, but I made that post at 4:26am ET on my way to the gym. So I edited it later to clarify. Sue me.

As for the rest of the list, you have literally no idea what responsibilities each of those guys have as a "personal assistant" to the coach. Perhaps, they're labeled as "personal assistants" instead of "analysts" so that they can receive a higher salary? Again, you have no idea how their role(s) differ from past Saban "analysts" and "personal assistants."

But sure, let's blame the analysts/personal assistants he has chosen for our inability to make adjustments in the Vandy/OU games (like you seem to suggest), rather than, ya know, the actual coordinators or players.

Good day sir!



ETA: I love how you call me a dumbass when your grasp of the English language is tenuous at best (bruh, you wrote "meme's" )

I miss this kind of coaching
Saban Mentality

Stop saving face wire excuses and just own the fact you said some stupid.

When BCBAMA is asking about analyst he is asking about people with experience to build gameplans and make adjustments not fuccking strength and condition coaches who know absolutely nothing about that.

You didn't even know their roles you just listed them and didn't even realize one was his female secretary till I listed who they were and their experience level.

In the end you're a clown, so I'm glad you won't respond with more excuses and reasons.


What we need is KDB to not be a clown like you and learn from having a smaller staff this year. He needs to embrace that Nick Saban did having a bigger staff to help him gameplan, adjust and recruit.

CKD needs to overhaul that list and get some grinders as analysts
