Croom

[preachermatt83]

I was just watching the old SEC storied episode about croom. He made a statement that I didn't understand. He was listing all the players he lost going into and during his last season at state. He then said "and we lost our offensive coordinator". What is he talking about. I rewound it to make sure he didn't say defensive and he didn't. He said offensive

[Lord McBuckethead]

Not really sure if he ever had one.

[TrapGame]

Yeah, can't lose something you never had.

[preachermatt83]

Seriously, he never lost an OC did he? Wasn't woody with him from start to finish.

IIRC Woody was MIA for a lot of 2008.

Have watched a couple of times but didn't pay attention this time tonight. I had a thought while it was on (until I changed it), Do you think he would have been successful at bama if they had hired him instead of Shula (and their not hiring him should have told us something!). When I think of him I think of: 1. Dropping Nike for Russell Athletic 2. Making our uni's look like bama-west 3. Having players in the campus shootout, even Jackie never had this 4. His , "Well, I didn't see that coming", remark after UNM skulldrug us 5. Falling asleep on the player's family couch on a recruiting visit 6. "Coaching" from a golf cart at practice 7. Being a career NFL running backs coach before and after us (how hard is that job?) and 7. and last but not least, more stubborn about Woody than Dan about the "country club. His time at State was seriously over-rated
P.S. Nearly getting Omar Conner killed against LSU.

All that said, a lot of his former players won't utter a negative word about him. That means a lot as well.

I won't repeat it here but a senior OL does not agree with this statement

ETA - "former" OL

Are you talking about Croom or Dan/Hevesy?

Croom

Ok, I saw Dan Hevesy and laughed.

I guess that depends on which players you talk to.

I was at #5. Tobias Smith was the recruit.

[Dawg61]

Maybe he misspoke. We lost Ellis Johnson his last year and the year before that Shane Beamer.

[tcdog70]

He also said he knew Maine was better than us. Also said said you could sign a quality WRs on any corner in Miami, but he never did. He also didn't use all his in home visits. If he hadn't got Omarr injured against LSU we would have won our next 2 games and went to a bowl. If Croom could fade away and never be mentioned again that would be great.

[The Federalist Engineer]

That Henig - Tyson Chicken QB tandem has to be the worst I’ve ever seen in SEC play. They made Freddy Kitchen look like a baller

Maybe he is trying to cover for Woody, so he Can get a junior high job somewhere

Seriously, is Henig or Tyson even a scout team QB in 2017?

[Dawg61]

Henig is a good dude. He used to go to a bunch of the baseball games and sit in LFL and was always nice. Croom's entire offense besides the RBs was atrocious. It's not like John Parker Wilson at Bama was much better than Henig he just had 10 other NFL players on the offense with him. Henig had two.

This is an insane comment

It's really not. Saban woulda won ten games a year with Henig just like he did with JPW.

[drunkernhelldawg]

This is an insane comment

Yet it is very true that the other ten guys are what usually make or break a quarterback.
