More Potential Bad News

Rumor swirling around Tuscaloosa....
Lane Kiffin/Bama OC talk has been a favor to Saban's agent to help rebuild Kiffin rep. James Coley is a name being thrown around.
Time will tell.

 

[ScubaCane]

I just can't see it, Coley has proven nothing as an OC and Bama has no trouble recruiting.

 

[Vj4321]

coley? cmon. what has he done here that proves he is a good offensive coordinator. alabama can practically get any offensive genius they want.....

 

[cway313]

Actually wouldn't be surprised Sabana seems to like poaching our staff

 

[Dingaan1828]

Makes no sense to me. Coley hasn't proven he is a quality OC yet. And generally, if you hire someone as primarily a recruiter, it's a position coach, not a coordinator.

Mario Cristobal and Coley are friends Mario recommended Coley to Golden

 

[MizCane]

So if Coley goes do we get Kiffin?

 

[itsacanething]

but our staff sucks says the crazy posters on this board..

but our staff sucks says the crazy posters on this board..

Justifiable stance for anyone that watched the second half of this season.

 

[Paranos]

if he goes bring in Ken Dorsey to pick up where Fitch left off.

go Canes

[Harpdog]

The offense and the QB got worse under Cooley, He is a great recruiter average oc

 

[hollyhood27]

Coley was a GA under Saban

 

[ChopperCane]

Would not doubt anything Satan does. James Coley is South Fla. guy with family ties and is a great recruiter. Coley+Cristobal= less competition with UF/FSU/LSU etc... UM is not even a factor anymore. We build em in SFLa they come take them away... it is that simple and IT SUCKS

 

[Port Knox]

It's about the Crootin'. Alabama has a football staff larger than Dade county. Saban ain't no dummy.

 

[Jedi Master Cane]

but our staff sucks says the crazy posters on this board..

They do suck..how this this "story" prove otherwise.

What if it turns out they're only looking to add Coley to the staff, for recruiting purposes? What if he isn't going to be the one calling the plays?

Sorry...but I wouldn't mind one bit if Coley goes.

Reports from espn Lane will be new OC at Bama

 

[pfallstars]

[1bigcane]

Obviously ended up as a bad rumor (or at least one that didn't come to fruition.) Sorry to set off any false alarms.

 

[Gatorhater]

So ever coach we have gets poached except the one we really want to get rid of.
