🏈 Ballou and Rhea take over UA S&C program

[JoseyWalesTheOutlaw]

IMO this is the biggest coaching/staff loss for Alabama other than Kirby himself. Not good.

I would take one Jeremy Pruitt over 4 Kirby's

I'd take one Kirby over 40 Pruitt's.

Scott Cochran just became slow and lazy.

 

[Tidestalker]

All the politics aside, I wonder if SC can Coach? He's been around it enough, I'm sure he has a good understanding of whatever he's being hired to do.

I don't blame CNS for passing though. Tough to hire a guy who's never been on the field to a legit role. This could go either way for Kirby, but I understand his thinking... To be the King you gotta beat the King. SC was a big part of the operation. Onto the next one...

 

[TideatMileHigh]

I'd take one Kirby over 40 Pruitt's.

I'd take 20 days of atomic diaherria over one Dave Rader.

 

[doemasters]

Well, at least Scott Cochran won't run out of runner-up trophies to smash at Georgia

 

[BamaFan334]

So?

So did he put Georgia over the top and make a difference like Cochran clearly did for us? So will he move jobs again one year later and move coast to coast to coast?

If this dude has been wanting an on field job for a long time, and obviously Saban has passed on giving him that opportunity, why should he care how Saban & Bama fans feel?

There's nothing wrong with believing in yourself and wanting that next challenge. Maybe he really feels that his energy & coaching will put UGA over the top... That's how a Coach should feel at the end of the day

Did not say he should care or anything was wrong with it. Just making and observation that Saban and Bama fans would not be happy with the move. I did point out that he probably wanted to do something different after 13 years and I understand it especially if Saban would not give him that opportunity.

 

[PurlJam]

ESPN reports he will be jawjas special teams coach.

Feld is an Alabama boy!!!Born and raised in Homewood. I think it's time to bring him home.

 

[rocknthefreeworld]

Lots of reporting that Aaron Feld will be meeting with Bama today.

 

[50+yeartidefan]

Well. 2 points.

1....ST coordinator... hmmmmm...

2... wasn't it SC that was needing back in big time when hired him at Bama or somewhere. Seems he he was doing baseball or girls sports.

3.... him n kirby are big time friends? Actually never good idea to hire friends from my dealings

4... is this a shot to weaken NS? Not necessarily to strengthen his program

5....does kirby really think all this will work vs Nick Saban

 

[It Takes Eleven]

Any word on his pay at georgia?

 

[rammerjammer]

Well. 2 points.

Checks out.

 

[jdpas29]

Kirby should watch Chuck Norris films from the 80's to get a better idea of how to deal with Nick Saban.

Avoidance is the key.

 

[planomateo]

Honestly I'm happy for the guy, not so happy that he's going to Georgia, but it is what it is.

 

[rick4bama]

I guess 9/19/2020 will see him one more time.

 

[BamaFan334]

Lots of reporting that Aaron Feld will be meeting with Bama today.

Alabama would market the shit out of that mustache. Maybe even trademark it.

 

[planomateo]

That mustache belongs in the Pacific Northwest or on a hipster.
