[@CharlieWinchester]

For Gosh sakes. Leave Cochran alone and have his private life. And end the Bama speculation. He has a son who is a very good HS football player on the. Lass of 2025. So geez let this crap rest, quit stirring the pot. Or go to another site and restore someone else's team. Leave Bama and Cochran alone! And those who are criticizing him, think twice before cast stones inside a glass house. We all have made mistakes and done things we wished we had not done. Or reacted or acted in a bad way.. maybe we have some bad habits we are hiding? Hmm, does that hit close to home? It should. Co bran was a vital part of the Bama foot all program and developed a lot of tough , young men. For sometime, he was the FACE of our program. He wanted to coach on the field and Saban wanted him to stay out in his role, so Scott was given a shot by Kirby. No doesn't look like it went well, but don't kick a man for trying to live his dream. The old saying you NEVER hit 100% of the shots you don't take. He had balls to try it anyhow.. Build people up. Quit blaming him bc someone tore and ACL. I've heard funnier jokes than that.. so many factors go into assessing injuries bc I was In sports training before I went into coaching over 30yrs ago.. Amen! Roll Tide!!

[@pete49327]

Media out of control, Cochran spotted on campus and so he must be returning to Bama in some official capacity. Maybe he was simply visiting friends in athletic department, ya think? But keep fueling a juicy rumor.

[@tbetyf7047]

Well it could be, maybe, possibly❤

[@SS11660]

We already have cheerleaders on sidelines.

[@ronniemoore2756]

No go on SC ,he absolutely ran our players in the ground with his over the top egotistical workouts, ask the players who've never been the same after ACL injuries and other soft tissue injuries, the numbers don't lie, just go back and look the last 4 seasons he over strength and conditioning smh😢

[@protestthisyouloser1093]

Maybe there’s another reason… but I feel that Alabama lost a level of physicality when Scott left, that never came back.

[@druid1952]

I sure hope not! He’s not good to have around anymore. Especially not as a strength trainer!

[@jefferydixson8952]

It’s B grade. But it can be a top 5 class if they can get the players that de-committed

Metz is an exciting player. Very similar to Vinny Sunseri in his intensity.

[@williamtexas261]

Very Mixed feelings on Judas Cochran. The rumors when he went to Georgia for an “on field” position were that Saban had said he’d never get that at Alabama and should move on. He and Kirby were “friends” from Cochran’s time on Saban’s staff but I think the ONLY reason Kirby hired Cochran was to try and ding Alabama, but Saban had already moved on to the next generation of strength & conditioning philosophically with the guy from Indiana so Cochran was on the way out of Alabama at that time one way or another and Saban let him save face. It seems like player injuries were way down after Cochran left.🤔

[@SS11660]

Absolutely.

Absolutely? We had more injuries when Scott Cochran was around. Night and day on the injuries since he left for the greener grass on the other side. He left Bama for Georgia. Then left Georgia? Good thing none of these players even know him. He got mad at Saban because Saban wouldn’t make him a coach. He definitely doesn’t deserve to be back at Bama. Bama doesn’t need that loud mouth around no more.

[@justinsummerlin209]

Y, yes they should hire Scott Cochran back but just for a motivator!
