Press Conference Comments

[Bookerdawg]

It seems that Moorhead’s Press Conference comments have been much more transparent and direct than Mullen’s in the past. He certainly seems to be owning blame more than Mullen. However, I felt like today his comments expressed frustration with the offensive staff as a whole’s inability to gameplan and practice schemes during the week to prepare for said gameplan. I’m curious to see what Getsy’s role (if there is one for him next year). Same goes for Coach Johnson.

What's Mullen got to do with this?

Regardless I'm giving our coach/ coaching staff credit for 2.5 of our 4 losses.

Carry on....

 

[Bookerdawg]

He has nothing to do with it. We all bashed Mullen in the past for a lack of owning the “bad”. Moorhead seems to own it....today he seems to spread the ownership to the rest of the staff. Just seemed like a Break from the normal heaping of praise on his staffers

Saban’s pressor today was awesome. Some dumbass asked if he planned to rest Tua against The citadel. Saban went off on him and I 100% agree with everything he said. It would be a slap in the face to The Citadel and their players to NOT get to take the field against arguably the best player in college football. Saban said, and I’m paraphrasing here, “why the 17 would I rest him? Maybe his 17’ing o line needs to learn to protect him better! Maybe he needs to learn to make better and quicker decisions about getting rid of the ball! Why the 17 would I not take The Citadel seriously? Do you think they won’t give us their best 17’ing shot? Everybody we have is dinged the 17 up! Why the 17 would I treat Tua any differently than any other player? Nobody gets a 17’ing day off in my program!

Go 17 yourself!”

You got to love that intense sumbitch.

If you can't see him manipulating his offensive line with going for the TD right at our strongest player, and with statements like this, then you're naive.

I also think Tua over sells the knee problems like a soccer player. He keeps coming back miraculously. Must be a Hawaiian thing.

Nick knows his offensive line looked weak against us. He's going to call upon their manhood. That's what he does.

No I do not respect him by the way he does things like this and many other things.

I have zero respect for that sumbitch. He’s got a dream situation. He doesn’t really have to recruit-he can simply select whatever 5 Star players he wants. Oh, and he has, what, 50 assistant coaches? I swear he has twice as many assistants as anyone else. If he didn’t have better players at every position than 99% of the teams his team plays against, and if he didn’t have the refs in his pocket on every play his record would probably look a lot different than it does. His “greatness” should have a qualifier. His record screams that he is one of the best college coaches of all time but he has had tremendous advantages over every other coach in the country during his days at Alabama. He damn sure would struggle if he was the head coach at Mississippi State. On the other hand, he would never coach at Mississippi State because of the very reasons I’ve stated. Hell, that 17ing Stingray could probably win 10 games/year as the Alabama head coach.

So why does Saban rest him in the 4th quarter? I get that he has reasons for playing Tua against the Citadel, but to act like it's a ridiculous question makes no sense. Just answer the question, explain your reasoning and move on. Or don't. But there's no reason to be an *** in that situation.

Nah I don’t. 17 that little sawed off bastard. He gets to play by a different set of rules than everyone else. He gets to buy the best recruits in the country and the damn refs always give his team “the benefit of the doubt.” 17 him.

Are you sucking his dick too?

 

[EurekaDog]

He bailed on Miami. Couldn't cherry-pick talent in the NFL, couldn't...

have other complete control in other areas like he has at UAT.

 

[JoMo MoJo]

No I can just appreciate what he has built.
