🏈 Ryan Grubb joins the Alabama offensive coaching staff.

The Man can’t really be trusted… Not only did he screw CKD by leaving like he did… He coaxed CKD’s line coach to go with him… The man may be a good coach and all, but he seems to be an opportunist and can’t be trusted..

No, sir. You're evidently confusing two different people, schools, teams ...

Grubb took Huff with him to Seattle… That is a man all fans should not want to ever come here again…
We can win without them..

His career was in flux. He was living in Seattle, as was his family. He didn't know what McDonald (Seattle) was going to do. He was never officially hired at Bama. He was offered the job at Seattle. He took the job.

And this is a point of contention? This is a reason to say, "no?"

The notion there was something nefarious? Come on.

Just me, I'd rather have Grubbs calling plays than Sheridan.

Agree. And I don't say that to bash Sheridan, I think he can do the job. He got dealt a pretty bad hand this past season and IMO it's unfair to totally judge him based off of it. But I think Grubb is the better play caller. And that year he just spent with the Seahawks is only going to make him a better OC moving forward. I think he'd be beneficial in other areas too which would be a bonus. As said earlier, both of them on staff would be ideal. My understanding, that is the goal if they can make it happen.

Grubb has been officially let go from Seattle. So what are the actual chances he comes to Bama, either as an analyst or OC?

Can’t be like that. This is a business. Coach Saban hired Lance Thompson multiple times even though he ran his mouth about Coach after leaving. And still Coach re hired him I think twice during Coaches tenure. Gotta put them feels to the side for the good of the collective sometimes. If ego can stay in check.

Hard to put a % on it because of variables in play, but it is definitely an option. It is definitely being explored on both ends. That doesn't mean it happens though. I'll put it like that.

Grubbs wife has no interest in living in T-town so not sure this will happen. But the unemployment line could change things. We shall see.

Touched on this earlier, but that is WAY overblown from what I understand.

You could have let this one fly a little while ...

It is funny that you think his one post will keep this from continuing to fly.... Prople want to believe these type of stories for some reason.

Grubb's wife is Black but maybe she will give us chance. I will speak with the guy that has the giant Confederate flag on 65 near Clanton.

I don’t care who coaches what, as long as we are getting the best out of whomever puts on that Crimson jersey. Not just on the field but after. That takes trust from a 17 to 20 something year old kid to a new adult in their life. We know young people don’t care what you know until they know you care about them. Yet, with the ease to leave being the way it is, that takes a special person to gain that trust And they got to be good football coach as well. Sounds simple to me.

If ya want, re-read what I posted; it was mentioning about how she hated education and the school system to "go along" with the "hates Alabama" sitcom. It was a farcical comment. She holds a Phd in Education, has been a teacher and a VP for a high school.

Grubb's wife is Black but maybe she will give us chance.

Tongue in cheek, right?

 

[24and7]

The talk about Grubbs wife was not just a “social media” or imaginary thing… It was also broadcast on sports talk radio, the day he turned and ran off to Seattle (and stole Huff too btw)…So people aren’t blowing anything out of proportion on their own… But, maybe if Grubb takes the job he and his wife will clear the air…

I thought Rita and Rich Rod were still married.

I would hope that as a state, fan base and individually we are all past the color of one’s skin. No doubt racism still exists but a few idiots should not ruin the fact that we do not care about skin color. Bottom line, can a person do the job and develop relationships. This is not the 1960’s Alabama that I grew up in now.

@JoseyWalesTheOutlaw I know you meant absolutely no disrespect, just relaying my personal feelings toward anyone that is.

I Reckon so

Rita didn't like us either and that sure turned out well for us.

JMO but I'm not all that into bringing in Grubb unless he is bringing Phenix with him to Bama.

My group at the Oasis could call the plays if we had Joe Willie at QB.

LOL at throwing talk radio in there like that adds any validity whatsoever to the rumors. Again, the entire thing was blown way out of proportion and mostly revolved around people making assumptions about the situation and running with it. Then more fans piled on, because some have to feel offended about everything (regardless if it's true or not), and it took on a life of its own.
