To me he looked like a much better player than OJ Howard but the NFL draft didnt agree.


Hard agree, OJ just was a such a prototype TE physically that the NFL was willing to overlook how stiff he was in routes.

Guy's best plays in college were ones where the defense forgot about him, because he never was a consistent threat :lol:

Cuevas seems to be the opposite, a tweener that doesn't stand out physically, but was always getting open and making tough catches.

Sammarco looks like a lineman, dude is 270 easy.
Andrew Bone plotting this to get a promotion at Yea Alabama.

Got shipped out of town for Dorian Thompson-Robinson.
Exactly, they did a 6th/7th pick swap to get the guy they wanted.

Raiders are still paying most of his salary, while the Jets are paying vet minimum.

Looks like Locks at Maryland is about to hire him...
When they hire him at OC, Frank Reich is about to go from being the only HC to be fired mid-season in back-to-back seasons to being named interim HC in back-to-back seasons.
Marrone didn't want to assistant coach in college and he absolutely phoned it in that year. He wanted bigger, and in turn slower, OL prospects, which Bama has had to cycle out in the last few years.

Good OL coach when motivated, he's done a great job turning around the New England OL with 2 rookies starting.

I'd be fine with this only if the other OL hire is the "name".

He has a reputation more for recruiting than coaching. Last 2 NFL stints didn't go well and wound up helping coach LBs at USCw as a favor from Rob Ryan...

This is more hopium than reading the tea leaves, but it's so interesting that Mizzou VERY recently hired a guy who is a 30+ year veteran that has coached with their new OC at multiple stops to be assistant OL coach.

Just feels like they're expecting it :dunno:

Elijah Haven


Might just be because he's a foot taller than the defense, but he looks like Vince Young out there.

Or it might just be the similar WTF throwing motion :lol:
They also turned a WVU transfer, Akheem Mesidor, into a top 60 pick at worst across from Bain.

Isn't this the guy who got booted from Clemson for taking pics of teammates in the shower?

He changed his last name after being dismissed...

Will actually has a higher pass rush win rate than even Myles Garrett on the same amount of plays, which is wild considering Garrett's legendary season.

Again, thanks to UGA for thinking Will was too much of a tweener to be a standout player. Guy has a ridiculous motor...

In comparison….Morgan gets no to little heat from the fan base.


I think a lot of it is, we have no one to compare him to historically at Bama. His position didn't exist 5 years ago.

Not defending him, I think he could do better with all the talking he does. Really hard to tell what level credit/blame to assign to him.
Howard served a purpose after all those DBs left after Saban retired, he was actually 2nd string when the season started last year.

Better players eventually passed him, hopefully he raised his brand coming from Charlotte to Bama to find a good home.
