If that happens, the obvious questions are who replaces him and how many position coaches stay. I have absolutely no idea who he could replace him with. I'm guessing Bly would stay for recruiting purposes. To me, this would also signal that the offense is safe, because I don't see Mack completely starting over on both sides of the ball. My hope would be that Searles goes too, but I don't see that happening now. I'd also like to see a new S&C coach, but I'm not sure if Mack really cares about that.Looks like Bateman is out as DC. Everyone better delete those posts about Mack being too nice of a guy and UNC doesn't care about football etc.
I agree with all that. But... Bateman sucks! The Duke's bowl was just an embarrassment beyond words.If that happens, the obvious questions are who replaces him and how many position coaches stay.

Bly isn't going anywhere. Mack loves him and the 757 ties are too strong to merit a change. Mack loves staff continuity so I think DC will be the lone change going into the fall season. As far as Searles, I believe Mack thinks more of the problem were the players rather than the coaching. Thought that before multiple OL opted to leave rather than stay for this season (basically were pushed out), in addition to grabbing the Miami center.If that happens, the obvious questions are who replaces him and how many position coaches stay.

I haven't seen anything official. Apparently some people who run TOS (their versions of AJ) are saying that's what they are being told. Obviously that's not an official announcement, but sounds like more than just a rumor.I'm not seeing any official word that Bateman is out as DC.
Are her ball skills as good as Wanda's?Put Sally as the OL coach!
The Waterboy...as a player or the DC?Is anyone on the UGA staff available? I would think even the guy who gives water to the defensive players would be an upgrade.

You'd think this type of convo would be one-way. Bateman had the 100th worst D or something. How can he push back on that unless he says Mack isn't supplying enough roids... Making kids spend too much time on academics, etc?The rumor is some friction surfaced between JB and the staff that would seemingly make it difficult to move forward with him as DC.
Maybe Bateman wanted to replace some of the staff or maybe he wanted to change some things with the scheme and Mack didn't think it would work. I don't think we'll ever really know. It just seems like it wasn't a good fit for everyone involved.You'd think this type of convo would be one-way. Bateman had the 100th worst D or something.

Looks like a good resume, which means he'll be too expensive.
Good pointMaybe Bateman wanted to replace some of the staff or maybe he wanted to change some things with the scheme and Mack didn't think it would work. I don't think we'll ever really know. It just seems like it wasn't a good fit for everyone involved.
No experience as the sole play caller, and it is probably the HC's D plan, but otherwise plenty to like.
That Saban tree has turned out pretty good though. Might be worth it just because of that. Not sure it could get much worse.No experience as the sole play caller, and it is probably the HC's D plan, but otherwise plenty to like.
Dan Lanning was the other co-d-coordinator. Will Muschamp will be replacing lanning, so they aren't turning the reins over to Schuman yet.
isn't it strange how people suddenly comes up with ideas to improve things right when the know they're getting firedMaybe Bateman wanted to replace some of the staff or maybe he wanted to change some things with the scheme and Mack didn't think it would work.
