re: David Reeves - UAB

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 1/9/21 at 11:16 am to Laman1978

My top 5 all along has been

1. Freeman
2. Reeves
3. Arnett
4. White
5. Schumann sp

Number 3 thru 5 all have SEC experience in games and recruiting and all 3 are in the "younger" hopefully hungry category.

re: Terry Joseph joining Freeman and Corey Raymond will be dynamite

I think that you are exactly righ re: Terry Joseph.

I think he is New Orleans recruiting insurance in case we loose Mickey Joseph in the Title 9 mess.

If we do loose Mickey then you could make Mangus PGC/WR just like Brady was and then make Russ Calloway the QB coach.

If we can close the deal on Freeman then the rest will take care of itself as the Title 9 mess plays out. If Calloway decides not to wait it out then that is his decision to make.

Just close the deal on Freeman.

So why exactly is your opinion the gospel and why tell others how to think.

I actually agree with you on the coaching breakdown but I have no problem looking at any other options. It does no harm to evaluate all possible avenues that the staff might possibly take.

I have heard the same thing.

That Corey wants to coach all the dbs like before.

re: Does the fact that Martinez played this year...

I like this type of recruiting.
Mainly guys under 300 lbs and gain good weight.

I really like the idea of playing guys at OG when they are younger and then move out to OT.

Michael Brooks is my answer.

re: Graham Harrell Interview For OC

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/26/20 at 5:32 pm to LouisianaLonghorn

Not at Harrell or Mason fan at all.

DC my preferences are.
1. Freeman
2. Reeves
3. B. White

OC I am not as comfortable

My choice on offense would probably be keep E; promote Callaway to PGC or QB coach; then find an OL/Runninng Game Coordinator.

I don't really care what peoples titles are as long as the people involved understand and accept their roles.

re: Who is your choice for DC?

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/22/20 at 9:36 am to MontanaTiger

1a. Freeman
1b. Reeves

Absolutely No to all the ex head coach retreads.

re: Argue AGAINST Russ Callaway being promoted to OC

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/21/20 at 11:18 am to Stuckinthe90s

I am all in with Russ.

Give him PGC with E still at OC
Or give OC to Russ and move E back to TE but leave E in the booth with Russ.

DC I like Freeman and Reeves.

re: True or false... we win some of those games we lost with Johnson at the helm

I am finally satisfied with the direction that our qb room appears to be trending.

With that said I think that we beat Mizzou and A&M but still loose to State(because of the defense); Auburn; and Alabama.
Auburn would have been closer because Max protects the ball better. Alabama is still a big loss.

re: What's your grade on Coach O based on season/recruiting so far?

We were typing at the same time.

We agree.

re: What's your grade on Coach O based on season/recruiting so far?

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/17/20 at 5:34 pm to Smell the crawfish

Off season - F from the end of the championship game until the beginning of the season there have been a lot of bad decisions.

In season/Coaching - C- The Florida win keeps this from being worse.

Recruiting - B Solid class considering the problems going on. Still weak on the OL but still time to remedy that. This grade can improve to an A if more OL help is added.

At least things appear to be trending back in a positive direction.
If we replace any coaches the next ones need to be upgrades are we will be rinse and repeat for next year.

2 ASU commits that might fit our needs.

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/17/20 at 3:46 am

During my review of Early Signing Day I noticed that 2 Arizona State commits had not signed according to 247.
Both could fit area's of need on our roster.

1. CB - Isaiah Johnson. 9th rated cb.

2. OC - Ezra Dotson-Oyetade. 5th rated oc.

I remember both names from earlier in the recruiting process. I really like Isaiah Johnson.

Any thoughts.

This idea sounds like a good idea.

Let the schools have an extra scholly to replace early nfl guys etc.

re: Are we done??

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/16/20 at 5:43 pm to wheelz007

Goodwin at 6 pm.

Possibly Langston but do not know a time.

That would put us at 20 signed in the early signing period.

Agreed.

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/16/20 at 5:18 pm to memphis tiger

You are right.

Coach O has had years to prioritize the OL but it is still lagging behind.

At Least they have some time before next season to address the OL. I hope he gets it done.
We will see.

re: Coach O getting it done despite all the negativity

Posted by wildcat81tiger86 on 12/16/20 at 4:38 pm to wildcat81tiger86

I will give Coach O and the staff an A for today if they get Goodwin.

Very good job of holding the class together after all of the self inflicted wounds lately.

Still need OL in a bad way but they know that.
(I am not satisfied with our OL recruiting from Miles and Oregon both.)

Langston if he has the grades would be an ok replacement for Foreman. Smith was a must get.

3 more OL are badly needed.
I think that we need a legit Center in this class (maybe transfer portal)
Leigh or Cade or Moko for OT.
Roberts for OG or a second OT.
1 Center - Unknown who.

1 more CB unless we sign another wr (BTJ) and Nabors becomes your second cb.
Sage can also play cb/nickel/or safety.
