Jess Simpson gone.

[ShadowSpring]

Stroud seems to be a **** good replacement.

Best of luck to Coach Simpson, that's a **** of a promotion!!

 

[Mark_RichtOC]

Did it help last year at all with any kid outside of Jalar Holley? No

Probably didn't help that the team was trash

 

[WR Cane]

Stroud has a nice resume and has definitely improved defenses where he has coached.

 

[ADELPHI]

oh look our best coach and teacher on both sides of the ball "leaves" this man got fired for mannys friend... Im out on Manny

One of the dumbest posts I’ve ever seen on here and that’s saying a lot

 

[supersaiyanshel]

Whatever.

 

[BostonCane]

We'd have the top coaching staff in the MAC..... #TNM

Saban started his coaching career at Kent State, Urban Meyers first Head job was at Bowling Green....

But this guy has been going backwards. After Mario Williams a decade plus ago, he went to FSU-Colorado State-Akron. Why? And he wasn't even coaching DL again till 5 years later at Colorado State.

Starting to think this guy isn't actually Mike's CiS account :V

 

[TC@ne]

The first move of Manny’s I do not like. Very skeptical of his recruiting ability, let alone DESIRE to recruit. DL is way too important, and this guy seems like a solid coach but below average recruiter. We can’t sustain the recruiting we’ve had there.

Man sounds like an emotional female lol cut it out you’re a grown man

 

[kmwcane]

I dont agree with u normally but u right and i didnt even like Simpson

Why don't you like the hire? Is Stroud bad at teaching defensive linemen?

 

[Mark_RichtOC]

Ok

 

[supersaiyanshel]

Not liking some of these hires.

Not arguing, but besides this one, what other hires don't you care for?

 

[fincane]

Buford had guys sign with Texas, Ole Miss and Ohio State. That wasn't on Simpson because we stunk. But there was talent there. We weren't good enough to get any of them besides Clark,

 

[Tad Footeball]

Good for Simpson. Got a legit NFL job in his home state. Never going to begrudge someone when that happens. It's not like some clowns that take lateral titles at the first SEC job offer.

 

[Redstate12]

Lol have you seen Manny at the playground with Stroud? How do we know they’re friends? Could it be Manny just thinks the guy is a good coac\h?

Crazy part is Stroud and Richt are close friends. No bull.

 

[mavericksouth]

****kkkkkkkk

 

[HurricaneU]

Not worried. Simpson was a Richt apostle. Hard to tell what he was really capable of in a single year anyway.

Stroud seems fine. Wouldn't surprised me if this was a Manny initiated move given the speed of replacement announcement.

Maybe Simpson wasn't cutting it?

Not losing sleep over this at all.
