I’d be okay with this defensive staff:

 

DC/Inside Linebackers - Golding

DL - Bo Davis

OLB/ST - Gideon

S/Passing game coordinator- Terry Joseph

 CB - Karl Scott

To coincide with offensive staff 

QB- Milwee

RB- Drayton

WR-Coleman

TE- Mr. Assassin

OC/OL- Flood

yep, let’s do that thanks

Well, at least our Special Teams should stop sucking.

Can somebody explain the monkey references?

Banks’ girlfriend has a pet monkey.

Now we are being greedy. I mean with that many incredible recruiters we are just picking and choosing who we want at that point

Some of us just got the email for a zoom call with Sark the 19th. BMD lites probably. 

I just got one for the 22nd.  Probably just going down the LHF donor list.

S - Joseph 

CB - Scott 

ST/Defensive assistant - Gideon

I am trading IMs back and forth with a Bama guy at work. He is so pissed about Banks, and then I dropped the Golding news and he said "You can have him, we will make Charlie Strong our DC." 😂

Is BOB so much of a sick nobody wants to work with him or did Saban tell them all he is rotating next year and if something comes up worthwhile, take it with my blessing because next year will be a shit show.

 

I can’t figure out why many staff members are leaving. Bama sites are saying Wiggins, Huff and the DB coach all have offers elsewhere right now as well...

I have one Bama friend who I guess is fairly connected and he claims this isn't a surprise in the program.  Banks was a surprise yes, but not the others.  It isn't a Saban thing according to him, a lot of the Staff came to Bama to get paid and get a ring. Now that they have a ring they are ready to get paid again.  Also, according to him, BOB wasn't gonna be a good fit with some of the staff that is leaving, specifically Flood as OL is what he claims. Not sure if he meant BOB wants someone else or the blocking schemes or what.  Also says that anyone thinking Golden leaving is a positive is out of their mind, Bama doesn't play 2008 SEC offenses anymore.

Okay, I don't follow this as closely as many of you. Sounds like Banks is a unanimous homerun hire -- can someone explain why we are so high on him?  Coaching, recruiting, or both?

who was the asshole that said all-star assistant coaching hires were always pipe dreams

I feel like we are Andy Dufresne and we have spent 11 years crawling threw the sewage drains and we can see light... at least until football season starts.

I can't remember if another poster mentioned this already or not, but if so, the next time someone scoffs at money-whipping a coach to come to Texas and talks about it never working, lets go ahead and mention Jeff Banks. Thanks.

Because this was NOT a thing a week or two ago. 

If we also take Golding and Scott, that's what, 6 bama staff members including Sark and Milwee? Sark, Milwee, Flood, Banks, Golding, Scott. Thats a fuck ton of turnover even for Nick Saban in one offseason. We should definitely let him keep Golding. As an olive branch. 

Its also an indicator of the type of culture Sark wants to instill at Texas, this is a BFD

Did I miss who is (expected to be) the new S&C coordinator?

Not confirmed but rumor a week ago is the CAL guy would be either Strength or Conditioning with someone else to handle the other half of that.

Does Golding coach LBs? I didn’t see a LB  coach in your list.

He's one of the best recruiters in the country.  He was also voted the best ST's coach in the country a couple of years ago by his peers.  He also has a stripper girlfriend and a pet monkey.  Its the rare quadruple-threat.

I'm coming around to cheering hard like a motherfucker for Golding because, if nothing else,  it would more or less eliminate the possibility of Mike Stoops being able to coach here.

Okay, I'm sold. All I really knew from following this thread intermittently was the stripper gf and the pet monkey, which was in all honesty pretty compelling in its own right.

Lol why? What's he going to do? Hire our coaches?

I get how Milwee and Flood were a given and how Banks is a surprise, but if we then add Golding and Clark Saban is going to go ballistic....

 

Sark ain’t ducking around..

I'm fine with going on record saying this is the only hire I'm concerned about (if it does come to fruition). This would be the closest to buddy buddy, comfort hire of anyone Sark has brought on board. I don't think he's a bad DC but Bama didn't exactly light it up on that side of the ball this season. Is he comfortably or even objectively a better DC than Ash? 

Maybe I have a little battered wife syndrome going on with all of the terrible DCs we have seen come and go since Boom (and all of the scoreboard fucking OU has done to us the past 20 years).

Golding put together a pretty impressive game plan vs tOSU, and tOSU was executing at a pretty high level, especially in the first half. I was watching for defensive adjustments at halftime, and he did a good job with that. If he can give us a similarly effective defense to what Ash gave us this last year, then anything above that will be gravy. I believe that he can do that.

He's originally a secondary coach, but this.  He's been coaching ILBs at Bama.

This is a very good point. Would rather have anybody else. Orlando, Diaz, Dora the Explorer, etc.

Hey. Don't sleep on Dora. She runs some antiquated concepts but she's a nails out of state recruiter and has always gotten the most out of her guys.

The pipe dream quote was about a full staff of all star hires. We are doing about as well as possible and it’s maybe half the hires are home runs.

Does Saban even care if he loses Golding? Or is just fan/message board noise that Bama doesn't like him at all?

Yeah.  I meant that instead of DL. My bad

This also ensures Saban sticks around thru 2023 to attempt to put the beat down on us 2 or 3 times.

Also, regarding Banks, when the dust settles, I'm hoping I can get more stories about this fucking nut and his personal life. Here's to strippers, pet monkeys, and 5 stars!
