| FTBL Alabama vs Michigan -Bama Football Falls to UM in ReliaQuest Bowl, 19-13

Gotta give props to Womack and the defense. I've been a naysayer on him this season but to be depleted like they were, they played a helluva game. Not like UM is an offensive juggernaut, but they still shut their shit diwn and gave us a chance to win.
He had a pretty shit game vs Vanderbilt but overall Wommack did good this season. Defense has some issues but they put the offense in a position to win more times than not.

I'll eat my crow on that one. I wanted him gone and he looks like a good DC.
 
If that is indeed the case. Then Deboer is a joke.
I dont see it that way. He may end up sucking. It's Iike the 7-6 year with CNS the first year. A lot of the players didnt fit, now of course we as fans were questioning the hire as far as wanting Saban shit canned after year one. I guess I'm saying this as a reminder, that we, as fans, need to stay in our own lanes. If CKB works out, then great, another era of great Bama football, if not, TPTB will shit can him and get someone else. Time will tell.

I still don't buy "the fit" discussion. Our players are the highest end athletes you can find and fine tuned to be able to adapt. We had everything we needed. Need a good size receiver, you got 6'5 Odom or 6'3 Bernard. You need speed? We got Ryan Williams, Pentice, and Law. Wanna ram the ball down their throat you got 225 Haynes. Wanna run with speed and pass to a back, you have Miller.

Defensively, you need backers that can run and cover or handle the run, you have Campbell, Lawson, Jefferson. Need a cover corner you have two 6'2 corners running 4.4. Need a leader, you got Moore. We did not have that bad ass pass rusher this year and it hurt us, but other than that we had a guy for anything.

Folks will argue with that, but in the end you really have everything you need and in a better position than just about any other program in the country.

Just the way I see it. Milroe is not a Penix type QB that can pick a defense apart. It doesnt matter what you have on "paper" its about whether or not the players grasp the type of team your trying to develop. 1st year trying to learn a whole new program, you're going to see it looking like bad players, bad coaching. If it doesnt improve in the next couple of years, then you'll have your answer.

Good points. And people on here will argue with me, but I remember Saban basically kissing DJ Hall’s ass that first year (because he had no other players)

I agree with this. It is concerning to me that CKD left Milroe in the game because, "he saw the fight in his eyes" or something to that effect. You have to have the nads to make a change if it's warranted like Sark does. Although, Kirby tends to be loyal to his guy as well. Either way, the HC needs to be able to make tough decisions if it's best for the team to win. Saban pulled Hurts for Tua and made history.

Willing to bet Simpson is. My entire point is we have the horses. He may never get another Michael Penix Jr, so we can't go off history either if we can't go off paper. Hard to have a fifth or sixth year quarterback.

Guess I'm not one to wait multiple years for these guys making $10M a year. He's now got eight months to get his starter ready for his system.

I'm of the impression at this point Milroe remained quarterback due to pressure within tge program. Ty ain't this bad, ain't possible.
