A lot of people are going away from playbooks now. I read an article last year about how Leach doesn't use one anymore, either. With technology, they can use video to teach the plays without having an actual written book. It was pretty cool the way they talked about how Leach installs his offense now. Apparently, he can install the whole thing in under 2 weeks these days with the help of technology and the experience he has with his system.

It will be hard to keep a new hire quiet once there is an agreement in principle. There are too many ways for it to "leak" and agents are usually a good source, with the favor bank in play. Better optics for UT to have it out there.

So what's your take? Is Mathews wrong/misleading? Is there an end to this in the foreseeable future?

Not at all my friend. Lots of trust and loyalty in a college lockeroom. You don't want that lost just before the playoffs.

Curious if you played or coached college athletics?

Guarantee you that 75% of that team has no idea that Enos has the job title of AHC

They aren’t going to “resent” the QB coach leaving and then turn around and be perfectly chill with the OC leaving too

Lol

You seem to be forgetting many will assume he's taking over the OC next year at Bama

The optics would be that he took a job that offered him more responsibility, better pay, and increased possibility of being a HC again one day if he was successful. Anyone getting hung up on that title is most likely.. well... exactly what he said above.

Example of a good, modern RPO where its hard to be wrong when executed properly

Here’s what I’ll say: when Doug Matthews dropped that 95% line I got a text shortly afterwards that said there’s a lot of smoke around Enos. Obviously I cannot validate the accuracy but I have no reason to doubt it at this point.

So now Matthews is sticking to his guns even though nothing has been announced nearly a week after his first statement. What do we do with that information?

I think it’s possible we decided on Enos around the same time Alabama also found out that Locksley was leaving. That obviously puts us in an unfavorable position - and as such we have covered our bases and continued to interview other candidates. Is it possible that we’re currently in a bidding war for Enos or waiting on his decision? Sure it is - and makes sense given that Alabama has not officially announced him as Locksley’s replacement.

No the optics from a players point of view would be one of two things

1) why is he leaving to be Tenn OC over our OC

Or

2) my head coach didn't want him as our next OC so why should I trust his coaching now before the play offs

Either way it's an unwanted distraction heading into the playoffs for Bama

Tough to get past a low IQ. Puts a ceiling on achievement that no amount of hard work can compensate for. That said, I’ll take less talent and more hard work over the opposite if those are my only choices. Take ‘can’t’ over ‘won’t’ all day.
