I honestly thought Goose was going to be our main target for the Falcons OC position since he kind of just a scapegoat for the Texans. We'll see how he does at Alabama if he gets the job.

I bet he lands it

Would Saban want someone who is smarter than him?

 

[1BearJACKET]

Well he did have one DC who was Smart

 

[AE 87]

In Goose's favor is the fact that he's already accustomed to coaching players making more than him.

If this is Goose's idea of a stepping stone job to get on the GT staff, fine. Otherwise JUST SAY NO GOOSE! There's only 1 worse option and I'd puke myself to death if he ended up there.

Y'all are crazy. Have him or not, Saban is the best coach in college football and this could be huge for the Goose's career. I hope he lands it.

Exactly

 

[Skeptic]

I bet he lands it

Is he no longer a good Techman if he does?

Of course! This isn't the Jawga Bulldawgs we're talking about

Maybe so... and Goose may be too "clean" for the job given Kiffin's and Sark's track record

I hope he lands it. It is always good to see Tech alumni beating UGAg when they play.

Somebody once described a former Saban coach as describing to him (several times removed in other words) that working on Saban's Alabama coaching staff was like going to war every day, without a gun.

What does his coaching tree look like? How many really good HC's came from under him? Too lazy to look it up.

This is not me endorsing Lane Kiffin as a good HC. This is just me happy that Saban is now forever tied to Kiffin as part of his "coaching tree" and we get to post these pics...

Guess it depends on how we define "really good". I can not see the future personally.

But -
Muschamp
D'Onofrio ? Not sure
Smart
Cristobal - not HC but think big potential there.
Jimbo
McElwain

they are there in numbers with Fisher and Dantonio kind of leading but McElwain looks kind of promising I guess. The rest, not so much. I'm sure there is at least one the board wishes the worst for. (And his crazed look in the 4th quarter against Tech was astonishing to watch.)

No way you can put Kiffin under Saban. I would put Kiffin under Carroll's coaching tree.

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

Forgot about Jimbo. I would put Kiffin under Carroll also.
