Every celebration penalty we get this year can be attributed directly to this video.who gives a schit?

There are quite a few videos that these coaches publish of them letting loose and having fun with the recruits.
I've seen at least half a dozen regarding Saban.
A 10 second google search brought this one up.

I don't dislike Mac, just not confident in his supposed offensive genius.
Let's hope the chlorine from the pool somehow got on his teeth.

Nuss was already at the emergency room - he stayed submerged too long.
Title extension to ... "Mac jumping in the tears of his haters, making such a big splash". And it covers 2017, 2018, and 2019.
Still, 2017 must, must be a commanding year on the field of play ... like does this mean we'll block punts & field-goals like Meyer's teams did?
Does this automatically mean big-jumps in player development? Will we score too much for our opponents to keep up with. Will we very easily handle-shamble cream-puff teams? Will we have leads that lets the coming-years' players get "real-game" experience? etc., etc. = proof.
MacnCrew better not let these players down.

The players need to play with swagger and more importantly the coaches need to coach with swagger. Screw being conservative. Lets go for it all.
So true Gatormandan, to do otherwise would make all this false bravado. Go now Gators - all you kids.
Screw Dick Satan.
I disagree with this. Meyer would do this kind of stuff back at Utah. The problem is, Mac's career accomplishments are currently equivalent to Meyer back at Utah.
Anyone else see a problem here?
But he hasn't "been there" before. Not as a head coach anyways. One could argue that this past weekend was one of the best recruiting weekends of his career.
I'm really glad he is having success now. I just hope that continues through the fall. He's been taking one step forward and then one step backward for two years, which is why we had zero improvement thus far. This year, however, he's taken three steps forward with the bowl win, salvaging an almost disastrous 2017 class, and now building up the 2018 class. Let's see if he can finally not take any steps backwards when the season starts. That will be difficult to do with our defensive depth and the fact that Nuss is still calling plays while Nord is watching (definitely not coaching) our special teams.
I remember everybody on this board thinking the class last year was horrible and there was no way he would manage Top 10. The year before I remember people saying he got some good kids, but most people were bashing that he was not in the Top 10. The year before he did manage to scrounge together a class at the last minute....
You and I have very different memories, but I have never once thought we "won" the offseason. As far as signing these kids... Matty Ice is being pretty vocal so I think it is unlikely that he doesn't end up here. He is also on track to be an EE.
I think a lot of these kids want to play with him and will stay. We will lose some... everybody does, but I think most of what we have right now sticks and the staff had reason to celebrate. They had a fantastic Friday night lights... got a 5* QB who is already bringing in more talent.
Is there work to do? Of course? Do they need to have success when the games start... Yes... can we finally enjoy a week of good news without somebody dumping on it... apparently not on this board...
The players and recruits seem to be reacting pretty well to it on twitter. I don't expect Mac to act like Saban and Meyer... he isn't Saban and Meyer. He hasn't earned the ability to just sit there, he is using social media to his advantage as are his coaches and it seems to be making a difference. It is becoming a big part of the game.
Of course a bunch of 17 year old kids love it when there coach acts like they do. But at some point he'll have to command their respect and be an authority figure. Not their friend.
I don't have a problem with them celebrating a great week. There's just a fine line of acting like a premier coach at a top college and acting like Lane Kiffin when it comes to recruiting. Mac is somewhere in between right now. I think we can all agree his reputation has been that of a lazy recruiter. Acting like all the horses are in the barn and they can kick back and have a beer and relax is what I'm afraid of. He had a lot of work to keep these guys to stick and get 10 more just like them.
He's basically spent 3 years getting OJT at our expense and I think he's finally understanding how hard he has to work to be successful on the recruiting trail. We shall see.
Again, youre memory is very one sided., the pumping over that second class was monumental. It wasn't a good class, but that didnt stop the mac brigade from posting quite a bit about how many diamond in the rough 3 stars we got b/c of how much better mac and co are at evaluating talent. And lots of effort to find the recruiting source who rated the class the highest. One place had us at 14 and that was pumped a lot, then compared to other individuals who later won something significant as if to say mac is equivalent to them.
There were plenty of people saying last years class was horrible, they were called dumpers. There were also plenty who said the same thing about the first class, and called the same as a result. But there was also a lot of pumping both years. I actually did a good bit of pumping the first class based on the situation, but the second class was inexcusable after the time he had to settle in, and the supposed great accomplishment of winning the east that pumpers claimed was very important and signficant. I was pleased with this class, and am very very pleased with the trend we are on right now for the 2018 class, but those kids aren't signed, and i would expect quite a few of them would jump ship quickly if we come out and look like another abortion on offense.
This fall's production on the field is what matters and is what will make these kids stick, not some pool or pizza party, and certainly not the tweets of a bunch of 17 year olds. Kids these days are as fickel and impressionable as ever; no loyalty and lots of games and trolling. Mark my words, we have another muschampion type 100+ offensive year and this recruiting class everyone is celebrating will be an epic bust. THAT is why some of us aren't doing cartwheels yet. Sorry if that bothers you.
I seem to recall Creyer winning a BCS game at Utah.
You have to be a pretty miserable person to complain about this video 
Mac's having fun, so you can..
