📡 Staff additions/changes: Reports: Craig Kuligowski hired as defensive line coach

[scottyhk]

Won in spite of him....not hating...just think we can do better then a tight end coach..

Second half of the championship game is what his offense would look like. He couldn’t help that he was limited by the season long starter...

Should we start faxing??

No he wasnt able to use massive talent.....
Never able to adjust to Defense....
Did a poor job with JH...
Play calling sucked

Lockley likes to run a multiple offense. Spread concepts, pistol, pro set. Just saying.

That is why he underperformed. A good OC schemes to maximize the talent he has. Play to your strengths.

He focused on his system and when the pieces didn't fit, he never adapted.

Shula would be an interesting hire. I think his style, professionalism, and focus would mesh well with CNS.

Locksley was an awful play caller. He is a phenomenal recruiter and hope we keep him, but nothing indicates he will be a top tier OC that UA could/should get

Stfu if you are flames, (@EasyTider will remember that) but I see nothing that screams "offensive genius" on Lock's resumé.

Not sure I'm a fan.

Nothing suggested that with Sark and Daboll either.

 

[ElephantStomp]

Well since the players know the team better than me I say Locks should get it

I'm surprised Rick Neuheisel hasn't resurfaced in coaching in some capacity.

For good or bad, loyalty creates a bias.

But what are his #s running offenses?

I don't see any Broyles awards on his resumé for top OC or anything...

And neither were elite

I wouldn't mind seeing Shula as an OC, but that will never happen. History aside, I don't see him meshing with Saban. I remember him having more of a "family" environment - more laid back. Saban's work philosophy would be too rigid and time consuming.

That's my point. They were still hired to give it a go.

After two "give it a go" hires in a row, with mixed results at best (with Daboll, Sark was an utter failure), not sure we need a third consecutive one.

I'd love to see a home run hire that stays true to our offensive concepts. We are about to see what coach Saban has on his next up list.

JH is an athlete that’s been playing the QB position...there’s only so much you can do with that...Doesn’t matter who the OC/coach is. Looked to me like that massive talent was utilized well in the second half and ot of the Natty last week.
But, what do I know...

 

[Che Boludo]

Too bad Helfrich was just hired by the Bears, he would've been a tremendous matchup with Tua.

I would love the Shula hire. He's had time to grow and season himself. Biggest question is how much would it hurt his pride? Personally I would love for Shula to be back in the Bama family.
