Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Promoting Friend to OC would be so Butch-like. And I can totally see that happening.

Cannot do

Bring me the proven guy. Not just someone who has won with just 5* players too. A gerbil could average 28 ppg at Bama

 

[nicksjuzunk]

I would gladly take Larry Fedora as OC when UNC fires him. Would help with recruiting too.

 

[Nashvegas31]

I figure they do something that involves making osovet or Lilly a full time coach. Lilly been pretty involved in offense on sidelines with playsheets in hand.

It would be awesome if we brought in an Enos, Beilema, petrino, klingsbury, freeze, fedora type though

 

[Exiled]

Wow. Turn on the LSU / AM game

Officials made sure A&M had several chances to score. The last 2 minutes was one blown call after another.

 

[HankHill]

So he handicapped Helton

No. Helton just sucks and isn’t creative. The whole staff at USC is also showing that now. He let Helton do his thing for the most part. No coordinator is ever going to have 100% full reign. No matter who it is. The HC is always going to tweak something and be the final say.

 

[BJHSVol]

Just don’t understand that. Freeze beat Bama twice even if he did cheat for the players. I do agree that Freeze did not really scheme the running game all that well. But you get the best.

Freeze was always more of an up-tempo guy. I think Pruitt wants to build a team similar to the early to mid 2010s Bama teams. As a defensive guy I don't think he will want to have an offensive scheme that puts stress on the defense until he has enough depth there.

Agreed. Promoting Friend has a “Larry Scott” feel to it. Bring in someone who is a proven play caller and understands the flow of a game.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Will Friend has his hands full with the OL. He should concentrate on that.

 

[VolGee4]

I like it

Also who the f*** is Nyles Gaddy?

Walk on from Nashville

 

[Kingston Vol]

I thought about him too. No ties to this staff that I can see.

Also wouldn’t doubt he takes a year or so off like Butch. He took a lot of bad press this year.

I understand no coordinator has 100% but the way you wrote the OP made it seem like he was handicapping Helton in some way

 

[Big Gucci Sosa]

Lol

I like that Coach O already got the Gatorade bath.

Wow. And the coaches in the box left! Haha

Agreed. Very good OC and great recruiter

Friend to OC, Weinke to QB Coach, Niedermeyer to RB Coach, Johnson stays WR Coach, Lilly or Osovet bumped to TE Coach. Boom. I'm hoping the offense returns to the Ice Age of the SEC..... Bring on Mr. Freeze!

 

[engineerVOL]

Walk on from Nashville

And JJ Peterson doppelgänger until we figured out who he was in practice reports

 

[BJHSVol]

It was rumored last year Pruitt wanted to hire freeze and the SEC put the hiatus on it.

Was that really us? I could have sworn all the Freeze rumors were surrounding Bama.

 

[InVOLuntary]

Both.

 

[engineerVOL]

A&Ms stadium looks and sounds like there’s 300k people

 

[HankHill]

I understand no coordinator has 100% but the way you wrote the OP made it seem like he was handicapping Helton in some way

Yea i can see how that came off sounding. As far as i know he was pretty hands off. Not 100% sure on that tho.

I was just more talking in general.

 

[LA Vol]

It was rumored last year Pruitt wanted to hire freeze and the SEC put the hiatus on it.

Pruitt had his coordinators in mind when he met with Fulmer. They'd already talked and Pruitt knew who he wanted to bring. It was a leap of faith meeting Helton's demands, which were aggressive for an unproven OC, and getting the three-year contracts for assistants. Very unfortunate that Pruitt's most important hire wasn't the right fit.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Wonder if he should just promote that juco RPO guy to be the OC. What’s his name?

 

[engineerVOL]

Wow refs reaaaaally want A&M to win this

 

[engineerVOL]

Exactly. Next.
