Three coaching vacancies left

For all you cunts who clicked on this thread, post your bullshit rumors and speculation here.

A DC and a linebackers coach seem to be a lock, with the third spot being somewhat of a pick em. Hopefully we go after an actual dedicated OL coach, since the OC and OL duties should absolutely not be split by one guy. But that is how Fisch structured his staff in 2023, and they went with a three DB coach approach. It makes no god damn sense, but what the hell do I know.

    Sean Desai, just let go by the Eagles, would be a great DC.

    We can't fill out our staff because poverty program Bama can't afford their coaches

    Should also hit them with tampering since that's the flavor of the month
    Release the lawyers.

    The portal needs to be separate from the coaching carousel tim. This is insane. Or just get rid of the portal....

    He has almost no experience outside of being a coffee boy or a safeties coach... He was demoted out of DC for a winning team for being weird, was removed from coaches meetings, and still hung around...

    Not a good hire.
    Wow - I hadn't read all that. At one point he was in HC job predictions. He must have really lost it.

    • (5 years as a QC assistant) 2013-2019, Desai was hired by the Chicago Bears as a quality control assistant.
    • (2 years as S coach) 2019 - 2021, Desai was promoted to Bears safeties coaches. (2 years as S coach)
    • (3 weeks in the off season as DC) January 22, 2021 - February 11, 2022, Desai was promoted to defensive coordinator, not retained after Matt Nagy firing
    • (1 year Associate defensive head coach) February 11, 2022, Desai was hired by the Seattle Seahawks as an Associate Defensive head coach.
    • (10 months, Defensive Coordinator) February 28, 2023, Desai was hired by the Philadelphia Eagles as their defensive coordinator
    Despite the Eagles having a 10–3 record this season, head coach Nick Sirianni announced on December 17, 2023, that senior defensive assistant Matt Patricia would be taking over defensive play-calling from Desai. Desai was then moved to a lesser position in the coaches' box. This decision came after the Eagles' defense allowed 42 and 33 points in consecutive weeks, ranking as the worst third-down defense in the NFL. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that Desai did not "carry himself with confidence," and some players started to feel that. Crossing Broad also reported that, following the move, Desai was not part of the team's coaches meetings.

    In less than a year in his position, and after losing 6 of their last 7 games, including a Wild Card playoff game, Sirianni fired Desai on January 21, 2024.


    Towel boy for 5 years, 2 years as safeties coach, 3 weeks as off season DC, 1 year as assistant to the regional manager, 10 month as Philly DC ending in disaster.

    Considering Huff, Grubb, and Shephard are apparently still on UW staff because Alabama doesn't want to pay their buyouts UW will be the first team ever to only run offense.

    Any good sources on this buyout chatter? I couldn't find any info on a buyout figure for Grubb, or if he even has one.

    I'd be surprised if Huff or Shephard had buyouts, that's an unusual thing to negotiate when it's already understood that their role is so transient.

    Grubb is/was under contract with UW through 2025. If he could somehow get fired, he’d be in a for a payday. I think it’s more about that.

    That's interesting, I have never heard of any assistant coach/program scheming such a petty move. Frankly, I don't buy that that's what's happening.

    *If* that was actually the maneuver, I would think that UW could simply fire Grubb for cause as soon as he stops showing up for work for a few weeks. Otherwise, what's the angle? Bama tells Grubb to hold off, keep "clocking in" at UW, all the while missing a crucial acclimation period for his new team and Bama willingly foregoes having their most important assistant coach while they're trying to install their new offense? That's a shitload of hijinks that would almost certainly fail, all in the pursuit of saving what amounts to a drop in the bucket for Bama athletics.

    Yea, of course none of that is true and is just weird message board gossip. I’m sure they are just negotiating contracts, a lot of which is dependent on who else DeBoner hires, etc. I’d assume all the coaches are on already in Tuscaloosa and doing the recruiting stuff.

    Uh, assistants "always" have buyouts. UW is on the hook here, not Grubb. I bet they have a stipulation in all their contracts to deal with this, however.

    But Grubb may owe money to UW if he leaves UW for Alabama. Alabama would then have to pay his buyout. UW would only be on the hook if they fired him.

    Sounds like Bama is with the poors at this point. Might as well join the 2PAC

    Neither, he's going to Bama. The contract boilerplate covers the convoluted shit people have been speculating about Bama not "officially" hiring him so that UW has to pay his buyout. It's all nonsense - nobody is paying Ryan Grubb a buyout unless for some bizarre reason Deboer passes him over for OC.

    You aren't making any sense. Grubb almost certainly has a buyout. Someone is paying it.
