BOB should have marketing sponsorship with a moving company

I bet Nick Saban broke out the champagne

Maybe Saban should have a non collapsible defense.

Hope Saban gets a good one. They need to return to greatness and fast. Tired of the cesspool getting all of the attention.

They are already collapsing like the ööööing sham empire they are. But yeah, someone else in that ööööhole conference needs to step up and snatch it back from them in a big and humiliating way.

Man how I'd love to build a sham empire at Tech

How has this guy been so successful elsewhere and he was such a dud with us?

I dunno. He is a good football man like Chan, but I'd argue his results have been fairly mixed and this is probably a mildly disappointing landing spot for him, given most people figured he'd get a head coaching job this cycle.

It was his first time calling plays. Not everybody is a savant that has immediate success

Maybe he is the designated successor to Belichick.

 

[THWG247]

I suspect that O'Leary and Gailey interfered plenty

 

[thegtstunner08]

O'Brien called plays in '02? I knew he did in '01 but not '02.

The Hill maybe? Common denominator is US!!

We have debated BoB on this board for the last 6 months. Maybe we can now put this to rest…he is not a bad coach but his success is more defensible than impressive. He’s a decent but not great play caller that struggles to relate with people and lacks the command and inspiration that the top level coaches possess. He will always be a “not a bad hire” but not someone to get excited about. Take this for what you will, but it’s good for all parties that he returned to the NFL.

 

[Tampa Jacket]

Friedgen, Paul Johnson, BOB.

One of these coaches don’t belong. Who could it be? Hmmm.

He was not a good coach for GT.
