Rocker went from Harsin to the Eagles. Fired HC to best in the NFL. Averted disaster on his part wouldn’t you say? I would think if the NFL calls Kelly…um yeah…he gone too.

AUinMS9528 1,086 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Sorry, I don’t think the Yeller Feller is arguing with Freeze about who his coordinators are going to be. That sounds like the same old lazy BS garbage click bait reporting. Not buying it. The coordinators will be announced when they’re ready. OC really isn’t a big deal. I am eager to find out who our DC is going to be. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Kelly guy you're bemoaning the loss of.... His defense, loaded with 4 and 5* players gave up 52 points to Tennessee, 32 to LSU and 27 points and 316 rushing yards to a one dimensional Auburn offense. I could go on. That's the guy, right? Looks to me like if Sanders did indeed swipe him from AU, Sanders did us a favor. Saban probably heaved a huge sigh of relief because now he won't have to fire the guy. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUinMS9528 1,086 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 MHO is that Kelly is a good recruiter, but hasn’t proven himself as a DC yet. That’s not the kind of DC I think we need. We need someone who can come in and run the defense very effectively! Like what Steele did for Gus! Several names that have been mentioned would be great! We’ll see how it goes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slyinsocal 831 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 (edited) Kelly’s last full time DC gig was 2017 at FSU? If he’s so good, why didn’t Jimbo bring him to TAM or Saban make him the full time DC? At Colorado, the expectations, scrutiny, and competition is a lot less. Kelly won’t have to do much to raise the bar of a 1-11 team. Edited December 10, 2022 by slyinsocal correction 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

icanthearyou 4,468 Posted December 10, 2022 Share Posted December 10, 2022 Time to let it go. The ships have sailed. Opinions no longer matter. We will all see how it plays out in time.

I remember seeing signs on College Gameday when they were in Tuscaloosa and they read "Thank you Rita Rodriguez!!" Had she not changed her mind at the last minute, Saban would've never been hired at Alabama. I've read that she didn't want to move to Tuscaloosa.
