FSU hires Cornrow Norvell from bottom feeder Memphis

[Ancient Reptile]

History is full of mediocre coaches who were great recruiters and won it all.

There are only two kinds of coaches: good and fired.

? You don't think that they are about to collect a SEC title?

I’m referring to LSU pre-Brady. Emphasis on the word decent. Brady has turned out to be a great assistant.

You mean like WiLLLLLLLie Taggart? C’mon, man. You’re just playing the other side of the argument. You seriously don’t believe that.

No, I'm talking about Jimbob Fishers and Fat Fulmers.

I personally would rather have a good offensive coordinator, but there aren't many good ones out there.

As for Brady, I'd never consider a guy who was a GA two years ago.

So.... just so Im clear, dickhole is fine but dickweed isnt?

Welcome back, dickweed.

Are you actually endorsing Jimbo Fisher and Phil Fulmer?

 

[AugustaGator]

Is anyone really gonna miss him?

If a donkey ****s on an ox, does anyone....

jfc, no, I said sometimes they luck into a winning a crown. Dabo is another great example. He was pulling 5 stars out of Florida when he was a barely bowl eligible mid pack ACC guy.

A turd who can't recruit never does.

That’s obviously the case, as is a guy who can recruit (e.g. Orgeron) and who can’t coach worth a lick.

Can we agree you want certain equal ingredients of both?

Of course, but Clowntown is shopping in the Butters and Rejects row.

Yes, it becomes a matter of which option gives them the spark soonest. Is it recruiting or is it coaching? I think Norvell because he’s both.

 

[ThreatMatrix]

A good, even great coach is going to have a helluva a time winning with out great recruiting but even a mediocre coach can win with superior talent. Saban admits that he's not the best coach but he damn sure is going to out recruit you.

We need to pull this into perspective. How good of a recruiter IS Haggins?

A guy can't even get banned around here anymore?

Vetting the coach of the fourth best team in the Big Ten is like going out to get a third bid on a landscaping job when bid #3 is your neighbor’s son.

 

[Buckman2000]

Just so everyone knows, I’m being vetted as well. I will gladly take millions to tank their program

On the third day of 2007, on a flight from South Florida to Tuscaloosa, Alabama’s brand new football coach, Nick Saban, dropped a surprising question on his seatmate, then-Crimson Tide athletic director Mal Moore.

“Do you think you’ve hired the best coach in the country?” the 55-year-old Saban asked Moore.

“Why, Nick, of course I do,” Moore said, while thinking to himself: For $4 million a year, I sure as hell hope so.

“Well, you didn’t—I’m nothing without my players,” Saban said, locking eyes with Moore. “But you did just hire a helluva recruiter.”

Interesting, but I believe Saban won the NC the second year he was at Bama when he didn't have his players.
