He is right you know, you've had a16 year run and going. Bad year, it happens, it wasn't that bad, you missed the playoffs by a game against LSU. It wasn't like you were 6-5.
Well no because he’s the one that set the standard. He’s the one that said those are the expectations.
They were literally one play away in 3 games from being 6-5. They won on the last play of the game.
It’s the brand of football that his team plays now that people can’t deal with. The team is weak, not physical, and undisciplined. Even if they win.
They rank 124th in the country in penalties. They literally keep getting penalized for having 12 players in the defensive huddle - immediately after taking a defensive timeout.
It happens every game. Every game. Because his little Petey pet is a complete moron.
Alabama can do all that with a coaching staff making a lot less money.
I could go into great detail on the ineffective blitzes, incorrect pad level, bad angles and tackling. But I’ve already puked in my mouth enough from watching it on tape for the last 4 years.
I’ve watched Pete Golding call a defensive line stunt on the goal line against Clemson in the national championship game. RB ran it in right in the gaping hole where the DL stunted out.
What football coach calls a DL stunt on the goal line or short yardage situation? The answer is none of ‘em - except for Pete Golding. I’ve been involved in playing and coaching football for over 40 years and I’ve never seen it before I saw Saban’s wonder boy do it.
Go watch Georgia play defense if you want to see what Alabama’s is supposed to look like. What it used to look like. It’s the exact same scheme with the exact same caliber of players. Kirby runs Saban’s scheme taught to him by Saban.
Pete’s latest accomplishment this year was that he engineered a hot new 1-4-6 package alignment with 1 defensive lineman.
Alabama finished 32nd in the country against the run. Full of 5 stars and NFL defensive prospects.
