lol right now I'm trying to picture Nick Saban or Urban Meyer being cool with a player dictating where they play.

Nope they wouldnt, kid wouldnt play.

[I4Jay]

exactly. the kid wouldnt play anywhere at all.

coaching requires making people step outside of themselves and play for a unit.

trust me, if he put DMoe back there, being a competitor, DMoe (or anyone else) would have done it.

And again Dooley was asked this past season and said Dmo was tried in practice but didnt really show effort or a want to do it.

Do you seriously think that Dooley would cut Moore off the team for not wanting to do punt returns?

Both of those coaches have equally good players behind him and have great job security. Would Richt let Aj Green determine if he wanted to do punt return or kick return? Yes he would.

I would hope a coach would exercise his authority correctly.

if any player is asked to do something and doesnt give it full effort, there should be consequences.

maybe its a lack of respect fordooley but there isnt one kid who would say no or go half ass for saban or meyer without consequences.

Julio Jones, trent richardson and javier arenas all played on return teams...that should tell you alot

Some players may just not like it. It may be a lack of respect for Dooley, he was a senior when Dooley was hired, but there could have been other reasons too. Moore gave full effort every game at reciever so I don't see it as an attitude problem. He may have just told Dooley he didn't feel comfortable back there. In the NFL, you have to take every chance you can get to get on the field.

Cody Blanc has shown some really good things. He's going to be a good football player.

-Coach Dooley.

No way Saban would. Meyer on the other hand would win at all cost.

I've always said he can be a special player for us. Glad to hear Dooley confirm it.

What will he do when the other freshmen get here? Pretty sure Bowles, Croom, and Howard will show some ability too. And Dooley said he could be a good ball player not special. Don't start pumping this kid up like crazy.

The next Reggie White
