| FTBL Saban hires Tim Davis...

[imported_Porter]

as Alabama director of player personnel, where he will take over for Geoff Collins who departed for a on the field position at Central Florida.

Some info on Davis

Me likey. VERY much.

Look for him to add a few new wrinkles to our OL play. And I would not be disappointed in the least if he moved to the on-field OL job in a year or so.

A very, very interesting hire.

Yeah Terry.

I read 'proactive move' instead of 'reactive move' all over this hire. Or perhaps I am just seeing it through my wishful dreams.

Davis was in charge of all those fantastic OLs at USCw during the best of their better recent years. And they ran/run an offensive system that is the perfect execution of Saban's goal. And Davis has experience working under Saban's demanding work-ethic and STILL signed on to the staff.

Honestly, I don't see anything but good in this move.

Well said. There is supposed to be a press release on his this afternoon, and I'm looking forward to that.

Same here. I knew there have been a few NFL teams expressing a little interest in Pendry.

I know Pendry was dealt a bad hand this year with all the shuffles we saw on the line. But, I can't help but think that the hours don't sit well with him.

 

[c5vetman]

So are you guys thinking that Pendry may move on to "greener" pastures? It would make sense, with the new OC and all...

Interesting hire to day the least but of course an excellent one.

Hill played linebacker at Marion (Ala.) Military Institute Junior College from 1976-77

Which changed to a private High School in the AISA for many years, and is now a Jr College once again since 06'.

Looks like a great hire.

C’est la vie, not like I haven't been wrong before.

Not to mention who talks about two hires in a article, I was set up. Take it for what it's worth...it's still true, just about a person we don't really care about... :lol:

I awarded you points on the history lesson.
