Quality control by any other name

[lo country]

With the two new positions being added, I wanted to start one that has a good article about Bama and the SEC and their use of these positions.

Good on Riley for doing this.

Bo and Callahan both had the same position. Used a GA or Intern for it. Clinton Cosgrove was under Callahan. I don't know who did it under Bo.

So it is really a loop hole to hire more coaches? Is that how you all read that?

 

[skersfan]

It is how the SEC reads it, and gets permission from the NCAA to do it.

Right, instead Riley is using someone competent, not a ga, relative, or someone of the like.

Not so much a loophole. Still only the 10 coaches plus GAs can do the actual coaching. But you can have a lot of people doing the behind-the-scenes stuff.

Totally forgot the Lupoi was in some NCAA hot water last year (ended up being cleared) and wasn't hired by anyone as a full time coach. I wonder why we have not heard his name for another job this year? Seems someone would take a run at him?

Let it go Polo. Seriously, Bo is gone.

Says the guy who brought him up.

I may brought him up...but didn't drag him through the mud again Polo. You seem to have a knack for that with your comments.

How is stating a fact dragging someone through the mud?

How do you know they are any more competent than anyone else?

Not being hired by Bo is a good first indicator.

Can this entire thread be moved to the Tangent?

Comparing resumes.

I presume the "Football Intern" handled these duties previously. Barrett Ruud held one of those positions this past season, and Brendan Stai before that.
