So say there's 3 lanes, and I'm passing a bunch of nerds. I'm in the left lane. I pass that guy and then that guy and then that guy - there's a whole train of slower cars in the right. And that's saying a lot, because I'm not the speedy speedster I used to be. But I'm going maybe 70 in a 65. All the traffic on the right is going maybe 65. Then you get the ding-dong who wants to go 80. "Look, I'll get over when I can and let you by, but I'm not cutting off any of these trucks just so you can announce to the world that your dick doesn't fit in your pants." Calm down. Ha - then he sees there's a spot in the right lane, so he zips over 2 lanes to pass a truck on the right, and tries to zip back over to get in ahead of me. He's wicked pissed that he didn't get ahead of me.

You’re actually passing…most people get that (the 80 isn’t enough crowd notwithstanding). It’s the asshats who get over and the proceed to drive the same speed as the center lane that need a garretting.

Cleveland Browns (Finally drafting Buckeyes)

What does any of that have to do with letting AVP go? Maybe he wasn't a fit for coaching Watson. Maybe he was pushing for things that didn't align with Stefanski's strategy. Maybe he was just a dick. There's plenty of things to dig at the Browns for but these coaching changes aren't anything tragic.

Tragic? No, they just don’t seem to address any of the problems. Unlike almost every other year since 1999, I don’t think anyone looked at this team that made the playoffs and said “obviously the OC was the problem.”

That doesn't address mania's point.......if he's this super team builder, why did it take 7 years + massive cheating?

Fuck if I know, call Harbaugh and ask him. The weirdo doesn't even want to coach in college, and he won a national title. That's a weird skill to have.

I think the dude is weird, but he has been successful everywhere he has been. Call it luck, call it good coaching, cheating, call it whatever but the guy knows what he is doing. He did well at San Diego. Took Stanford from the graveyard to a top 10 team. Had close to a 70% win percentage in the NFL which is nothing to slack about. He just won a title at Michigan for a school that doesn't even get the same talent as Georgia, Alabama, etc. If he wasn't such a retard and pain in the ass, he would probably already have a job in the NFL.

The best builder? It took him 7 seasons to finally win a B1G title and 9 to finally win a national title. But yea he’s clearly the best team builder ever to grace the sport. You ain’t getting 7-9 years in the NFL to finally build a winner.

Fire the guy who didn't call the plays and had to make due without his best player (by a country mile) and both starting tackles :slappy:

There are left lane cruisers, then there are the left lane cruisers who get mad when you try to pass on the right. How about go fuck yourselves?

Alabama Crimson Tide (official thread of Football, Fake Championships and Banjo)

I think a lot of fans didn’t realize these kids wanted to learn from Saban. Bama wasnt a big deal. Saban was s big deal.

Now that he’s gone, these kids need to find the best opportunity to 1) make money now and 2) learn to play their position in the NFL.
Click to expand...
I have never been a part of the recruiting process. I wasn't recruited. I've never recruited someone. My kids aren't going to be recruited. So I'll take your word for it. But I would have thought that Bama IS a big deal. I mean, don't they try to sell the high school recruits on Alabama? "We have 100 national championships and 200 players in the NFL" (or whatever the actual numbers are).
Is there a chance that this is a "perception is reality" thing? Imagine being a sophomore this year. You'll be a junior next year. You expect to start and the team is expected to compete for a conference championship and get to the playoffs. Then, Saban, largely considered to be the greatest coach of this era, and maybe all time, chooses to retire. "Oh no!!! Will we be able to compete without him?" You start second-guessing. And you get a chance to transfer to a team that doesn't have that uncertainty. And 25% of the team is sitting there with the same thoughts. So they start transferring. It looks like rats off a sinking ship, but they're really the employees. With them, and you're fine. But without them, and the ship sinks.
And I would never criticize someone for making a decision that helps his situation. Go leave this spot for a better spot for you. Good luck.

I'm surprised that Belichick isn't on that list.
It seems as though whenever a fanbase wants to hire an A-level coach, they get stuck gazing at stars - people who are never ever going to go there.
Urban Meyer?
Mike Vrabel?
John Gruden?
Michael Phelps?

This definitely sounds like a more accurate list. Don't forget Michael Jordan since they have his logo on stuff. Maybe their research department has been working on bringing Bo back.

Sherrone seems like the logical choice but I bet if Harbaugh leaves it creates a atmosphere of butthurt there where they castoff all the Harbaugh disciples, and then they end up with someone who really doesn't make a lot of sense. Brian Kelly is not leaving LSU for scUM at this point.
