Mullen Must Hire A Full Time Special Teams Coach.......

[ExtremeDog]

Because he flat out sucks at it!!! We have sucked at special teams since he got here.

 

[DerHntr]

No doubt.

Edit to add: it is crazy that people having been saying this exact thing for his entire tenure

Not sure if we can.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I think the NCAA limits the number people on your staff. We would essentially have to move a coach to that position. I guess this is where the co-d coordinator screws us.

Go for someone involved with special teams at Alabama, even if it is a graduate assistant or the water boy who watches the Bama ST practices. The Turd has put on a clinic tonight on special teams.

 

[Dental Dawg]

I approve of this thread!

Put Brewer in charge of WRs and TEs, can Sallach. What does he bring to the table anyway?

 

[aTotal360]

I'll buy that. But our TEs have played well.

True, but I was thinking more from a recruiting standpoint.

 

[The Usual Suspect]

ST's is an important 1/3 of the game. We seem to neglect it constantly...

What a downer to start off knowing the other team may take it the distance.

 

[patdog]

Agreed. We still treat special teams like a 1970s high school team (except for the straight-ahead kicker).

Wilson has special teams all over his résumé. I never understood why he doesn't coach it. Honestly, how much extra time of the day do you have to spend coaching that? Considering the fact that half of Wilson's players are on the kickoff unit, they can't practice at the same time any way. AND WE HAVE A CO-DC TO KEEP THEM PRACTICING WHILE WILSON IS DOING SP/T!!!!!!
