2022 COLLEGE FOOTBALL SPECIAL TEAMS FEI RATINGS | Football Outsiders
I liked Cochran when he was here, but have zero interest in bringing him back in any capacity.
I checked the website, and it's misleading. If you look at individual stats for Punting, FG, PAT, and Kickoff.... and I can see why Georgia is #39. Georgia doesn't really punt often. They're not even ranked in punts... that's why it hurted them in FEI rankings.
Georgia and Alabama are right there within each other in individual stats....
Wherever UGA is it isn’t because of Cochran, he missed a lot of the season
Ok, I was wrong. Doesn’t change anything though
Dont disagree with what i or u think.
NS isnt as displeased I suspect.
But we will see between now and next game
I disagree on the part where Saban wasn't displeased. I"m sorry, from what I've read from several insiders not only this board but other places, and conversation with some people that has connections within program, HE is not happy with the progress the team has made throughout the season.
I know He has frustrated with BOB's play calling dating back to Texas game and said there was no reason we shouldn't score less than 20 points in that game. Texas A and M... we did not prepare well on offense. Tennessee- Young played well but defense didnt... For month of October, Only 1 team scored less than 10 points and that's Miss State.
LSU- Offense and defense self inflicted and Saban was very upset about that. Thats a game we should've won along with Tenneseee. Auburn game believe it or not, was the best performance for offense since Vandy game. Last time Defense had a real good game was Miss state and we nearly had a shutout.
If he wasn't displeased then why is he making significant changes on both sides of the ball?
Are we talking about Will Muschamp or Scotty because last I heard, it was Will that was brought in to coach ST for UGA?
No.

Google is my friend I suppose. I was thinking about last season obviously. Thanks @Justneedme81
Reason?
My bad, didn't see what you posted. Still should try, I think he'd be a good on field coach. Clearly he wants to move up as a coach in his career.

One of the reasons I'd like to try and get him back.
We can have a hype man with less baggage.
Good point. But we do currently have a DC with baggage because of the same reason. Maybe it was a one time thing, or could be something he's been dealing with for a while. I know coaches in college love drinking. Think about it, they travel a lot, and rarely have time to relax, so they drink. Not all of them, but we may be surprised by how many of these coaches do something like that.
If they’re within each other, what’s the benefit of Cochran?
Many other things. And it's his first year as an on the field coordinator. That's not a bad start to a career. And if you watch their kickoff team, they swarm down the field and take away each lane for the returner. I don't think they've had many plays break away last the 25 yard line, whether it be a touchback or them playing it well.
That's fair. And I can see what you mean. Probably not gonna even attempt to get him, but just a topic I wanted to talk about.
You think Coach Saban would change his mind about him being on the field? I would like for him to come back. But that will never happen. Also Welcome to the site! We fight but we also make up! Sometime! Just like a family!
