Milwee is probably his own category. It's striking that Sark, Flood, Banks, and Choice are among the best coaches in the country at their position. Davis was the only defensive coach in that conversation. If I had to rank them it would be something like:
- Flood
- Choice
- Banks
- Kwiatkowski
- Jackson
- Joseph/Gideon
Nansen and Baker are TBD and there's a pretty big gap between Jackson and Joseph/Gideon. I don't really know where to put Milwee.
I’m curious about what Milwee’s career path looks like from here. If Sark continues to have success you’d think he’d eventually be a commodity as a protege, but I’ve never heard his name come up for any jobs.
He has a pretty great gig as is, Co-OC title and QB coach and he’s not exactly as young as I thought he was (38). His role doesn’t really give him the chance to prove himself as a P5 play caller or group of 5 head coach though.
If he has aspirations for that, maybe eventually he has to take a step down and take a group of five OC gig to get some experience outside of being Sark’s right hand man.

Sidebar, is Helobious just a Futureman jr. Need to know if I should add him to block.
Futureman is worthless because everything he posts is a bit that seems to be for the entertainment of only himself.
Helobious seems sincere in his posts, just with an incredible rate of being wrong almost 100% of the time. So I think there is some value in reading those posts to check yourself if your takes ever align.

That's the thing though, there are content and conversation drivers, then there are drive-by quippers, there are news updaters, there are question askers, there are simple idiots, and then there are lurkers.
The five, err, six posters you meet in heaven.
Mediocre joke brought to you by a drive by quipper

Weird casting, bad pacing, poor storytelling, you name it. It’s the same set of problems that he had with Gangs of New York.
Funny, I tend to agree about Gangs of New York but see KOTFM completely differently. Generally thought the cast and performances were great (aside from whatever Brendon Fraser was doing) and the pacing wasn’t a problem. I felt the 3.5 hrs, but not in a bad way if that makes sense.
More so, I really push back that it was a poorly directed movie when there are a few sequences that were so well done and memorable that only a handful of people could have pulled them off. Specifically the ending, which was incredible. I don’t know if anyone else alive could have made it work.

KOTFM is a very bad, poorly directed movie
White hot take here. What makes you say it was poorly directed?

This may have been discussed, but just saw this in an article on the Athletic
SpoilerLet’s say you’re a backup safety at Georgia or a backup receiver at Texas who thought about transferring during the prescribed window but decided you liked your chances at earning playing time. Then you see a new starter parachute in, and you know that, barring injury or something else unforeseen, you’re probably a backup again. Well, your deadline has passed. There is no 30-day window that kicks in for you.
Yes, there is the post-spring transfer window. But if you’re at Georgia, Texas or any SEC school, that would be too late to transfer to another SEC school and be eligible this fall. Not a problem if you’re content going somewhere else. But unfortunate for those who would’ve preferred that
I didn’t realize players transferring from an SEC school in the spring window aren’t eligible immediately if they move in-conference. Makes it even tougher for Alabama to offset these losses, they can’t really look at SEC players once the portal reopens for them

Was thinking about this given the unfortunate news about Akina
Who was the last corner that Texas sent the league who was able to actually stick in the league as a corner (special teams doesn’t count)?
Damn, as a week to week starter it has been a while for CBs. Kris Boyd has stuck around but I don’t think he’s started much. Jamison played for the Panthers this year but mainly special teams I think.
For guys they actually played CB in the NFL at a high level, you may have to go all the way back to the Ced Griffin/Aaron Ross class? Holy shit

Hayes Fawcett’s tweet is probably for a bigger name.
Maybe, but I wouldn’t take his gif teases too seriously. Guy makes his living hyping up engagement on these announcements, he’s used that Rogan one a few times now for relatively middle of the road commitments

Interesting. Not sure what to make of it exactly, but I don’t remember a lot of job candidates making posts like this before. -

Crawford is on a visit to Nevada and Jerrin Thompson is visiting Florida tomorrow.
Nice. Jerrin Thompson to Florida would be worth a few Quinn tds when they visit Austin next year.

We can take another swing at Williams once he hits the portal in two years.

I wonder if they've reached out to Demeco Ryans already too. Doubt he'd leave but it'd be a lot more money at Bama, his alma mater.
Damn, I don’t really follow NFL coaches salaries but my first impression was this had to be wrong. Nope. He just signed a 6 year deal worth $28M.
It’s a huge range from the highest paid NFL coaches to the lowest.

I think any school in the SEC or Big 10 can afford to keep their coach if he’s happy. I think facilities and NIL are where the competitive advantages lie.
I mostly agree, but Washington is only getting about half of those Big10 payouts on the media deal for the next few years:
QuoteWhile all other Big Ten teams will earn about $60 million next year, Washington and Oregon will start at $30 million with an increase of $1 million until the expiration of the Big Ten’s seven-year television deal with Fox, CBS and NBC.

You do realize you don’t have a choice in the matter, right? You’ll accept it and be Surly about it, regardless of who it is.
What is your favorite memory of Mike Stoops’ coaching tenure at UT?

It’s been pretty quiet on the Harbaugh front, guess they are still in celebration mode.
Would love to add a Michigan opening to the mix (and maybe FSU if Norvell goes to Bama).
Gotta keep the chaos up so I don’t get tempted to do something crazy like get any work done.

Whether he turned them down or his buyout made it impossible, Lanning played this pretty well

I think it’s Lanning too, but I am curious about his buyout. Is there any real reporting about how much it actually is?
I’ve seen it at least $20M, with some kind of escalator to it that makes it much higher. I’d love to know exactly how much higher and what that clause is exactly.

Is it possible Bo Davis left (in part) because he knew Saban was done and figured Sark might leave?
Someone talk me off the ledge. I've gone from being a Sark doubter to needing him in my life. The vegas odds with him as a relative longshot make no sense to me.

I know a former National Champion coach who is recently unemployed and coached under Saban....
Haha, I think CTJ was hinting at some funny Jimbo outcome that was in the works that he couldn’t say much about yet. And he does have Bama contacts….
but there is just no fucking way Jimbo has the juice to get job at this point. That would be hilarious though
