My first thought when I saw that he was going to be the new OC was, "Is DeBoer trying to torpedo his job at Alabama before it even begins?" This seems like a bad decision.

I generally think that Deboer is one of the smartest football people on the planet. This one, though...yikes.

The only saving grace here is that this will be Deboer's offense run his way, exactly how he wants it, so all Sheridan will have to do is find their situation on the play sheet, phone the call to the signalers, and watch Deboer's offense work.

Well now, look at that.

Seems as though Sarratt and McCauley as the starting WRs could be a hell of a set.

He also won’t have Hiller as his OL coach

Our old friend Jack Tuttle gets a 7th season.

He's gotta be working toward a doctorate by now -- LOL!

NCAA 2K football 25 is rumored to have a late July release.

Just saw that William Inge decided not to follow DeBoer to Alabama after all.  Going to be LB coach at Tennessee instead.

RIP to all the 5th stringers wearing various florescent colored caps and bibs and of course goodbye to the biggest arm of every FBS athletic department, the football arts and crafts team.

Will the true Deion Sanders stand up…yes success at Jackson State….A great marketing campaign with the gift of gab aided by first game win vs an over rated TCU team based on previous years success.   He is a short lived (great fad) based on his unsuccessful campaign at Colorado that will move on after banking $$$$$$ after an unsuccessful coaching at a major college level.  Good for himself.  

The true Deion has stood up.

The Apple didn’t fall far from the tree, did it? Very few athletes i’ve just genuinely detested. I detest Deion Sanders.

If you're gonna come in super, super hot, you better be super, super right.

It appears that Deion has done the former but not the latter.

At first I was kinda rooting for the whole thing just from an entertainment standpoint. Then TV beat the whole thing into the ground, the whole program showed zero humility while getting waxed, and it became way more fun to root for them to get thumped every Saturday. I don't think things will improve much for them this season and personally I can't wait.

Thanks for sharing.

I'll just say this. I'm not defending Coach Prime so keep that in mind.

• Won 3 more games than the previous season he took over.
  • 1-11 the previous season when he took over and he told those players to leave 
• Doesn't bad mouth anyone publicly until they cast the first stones.
  • Xavier Smith cast the first stone is this case
• Running a high risk high reward program.

He's an extremely confident and brutally honest person that rubs folks the wrong the way. Personally, I don't like his style but I respect the heck out of him. 

The verdict is still out if he's running an unsuccessful campaign. It's only his second season but he tripled the school's wins from the previous season. I would say that's far from unsuccessful but that's just me.

I think that's a fair and really well-stated counter-point. It can be either/or:

When Teri Moren came to IU there was a major culture change, and with it came some really nasty posts from the families of players that left IU about how Moren was steamrolling good people. That turned out to be so very not true. Of course, in some instances a new coach can be just an @$$, nothing more and nothing less.
