Rumors on VQ that it could be Chip Long, Notre Dame and former Memphis OC. Doesn't get along with Kelly and wants to be in SEC. Just a rumor but would be a really good hire.

who started it?

I don’t like hearing that Fulmer is involved in the decision. It’s one thing if approval is needed for Freeze (or someone with baggage), but Pruitt shouldn’t have to consult with Fulmer (or anyone else) before deciding who he wants on his staff.

Ummm yes he should have too. You can’t work as an employee in the electronics department at Walmart and hire someone. Management over your departments does that.

Let me known who Greg Byrne hires as Alabama’s offensive coordinator.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

Naive is believing in anything posted on a website before you actually hear from the persons making the hire.

So, why is there even a discussion?

 

[WillWill3]

You all do realize that they are keeping it hush hush just so you all will not riot and revolt.

Swain is having a special broadcast tomorrow night to discuss the OC hire... I think he may know something is coming

Right... they gonna make him make him wear a mask on the sidelines next year?

If you think that even lord Saban does what he wants without consulting his boss, even in a technicality basis, you’re wrong.

Can't do nothing about once he's hired. That is why you will not hear anything about the hiring until it's all said and done.

Bruce Arians wants to keep FK on staff if he takes the Browns' job

i thought for sure schiano would get the browns job.

Plus, Pruitt is a first year coach who I’m sure gets advice from a NC winning ex coach in Fulmer. Acting like Pruitt is making this decision and gets to make it alone is delusional. He isn’t. It’s never that simple.

Saban tell Greg Sankey what to do. The man runs Alabama and would hire whoever he wants to with nobody's approval.

If he requests advice, that’s different. If Fulmer is actively involved in hiring his staff, Pruitt won’t be here very long.

I have no doubt Byrne “approves” of who Saban wants to hire. Just like the Queen gives Royal Assent to laws passed by Parliament.

Someone was talking about assistant coach salaries a while back. Saw this today. Thought it was interesting.

Its what i dont understand. Regardless of how tight of a ship he runs, there are other parties involved that always talk...

Unnamed SEC OC, McClendon hopefully. I’d be happy w any of these names

 

[Volsfaninva917]

Brice:

I really like Briles and the guy from Okie state

Briles is good. Yurich came in and had a couple tough years but has had them clicking the last couple.

If Neal Brown would really consider leaving a HC gig to be an OC, I’d take him in a second.

 

[dallasvol86]

No way Briles is on the list if Freeze couldn't get through the board of trustees.
