Alabama HC Nick Saban Retires

[NDRock]

The comment was relevant to the discussion. DEI is not political in nature, its highly relative to the business world, including sports business models such as college football. So, thanks, but no.

Bullshit. Someone brought up Freeman and since he’s black you made it about DEI.

 

[Giddyup]

Never knew what DEI was until musk blamed it for Boeings f up

 

[Dizzyphil]

Ok - thanks but bye....

find another site where your un-related 'beliefs' sound good to you.... notice how many here like yours??

He negs me because he wants to bring my score down - which I could give two shits about..... he's just trolling at this point

 

[Giddyup]

the PC police has got Bobby ok surrounded. Anyway back to football

 

[Irish2155]

Always give 205%

2.05 coaches. The ‘Bama gear gives it away. Not sure where the .05 is nor do I want to ask.

Truth is often repulsive to a toxic culture.

Yeah, because a black person couldn’t be qualified to coach football.

 

[NDpendent]

The math ain't mathin, man

Checks out to me.
He just didn't list MFMF as -110%

Kiffin must have really pissed off the powers that be, because it doesn't seem like they are considering him.

Read some article (can't remember where) that Kiffin supposedly burned a lot of bridges when he left Bama

unrelated but this video of Lane still cracks me up.

 

[Giddyup]

That baby does look like it went 10 rounds with Joe Frazier before coming out.

 

[IRISHDODGER]

Wonder if Alabama sniffs around Lance Leipold

If history is any guide, Bama needs a “tweener” HC as it seems you don’t want to be the man to replace the legend. You want to be the man to replace the man that replaced the legend.

His reaction is gold. And then the daughter has to remind him she’s on video.

Any legs to the rumor Gruden was called?

 

[Ndaccountant]

Any legs to the rumor Gruden was called?

Doubt it. He is rumored to be getting an expanded role with the saints

 

[FWIrish4]

Doubt it. He is rumored to be getting an expanded role with the saints

Did you just dispel a rumor with another rumor? 😂

Rees getting the job would be hilarious

 

[Giddyup]

Idk. Rees may get the last laugh. Bama has a treasure trove of resources

 

[stlnd01]

I like Tommy Rees but there is no way Tommy Rees is a top candidate for this job, not when compared with the others. This is Saban/the program doing him a solid and getting his name out there as a finalist to help him find the best possible landing spot elsewhere.

 

[irishff1014]

If anyone has til tok go to the barstool page and watch the clip with Frank the tank talking about Saban. That dude needs some help but it funny sometimes.

TR is only ready for FCS HC right now.

Mike Norvell is the best candidate if you ask me:

1) Proven program builder

2) Knows the southeast and recruits well down there

3) Probably in line for a pay bump after what he just did with FSU in 2023

4) Buyout is doable

5) Not too young, not too old. Just enough experience being a head coach

6) FSU is begging to get out of the ACC for the SEC anyway

Sorry, but Norvell is all smoke and mirrors.

He's not a good recruiter. His classes at FSU have been ranked 27th, 20th, 26th, and 12th. That should NEVER happen at FSU. He was also unable to hang onto Travis Hunter and lost him to freakin' Jackson State. He lost both five stars he had committed this past year on signing day -- coming off a 13-0 season. He's reportedly not all that great in-house trying to close.

At Memphis, he inherited a program that was very strong coming off Justin Fuente's tenure. He didn't build anything at Memphis, he maintained their success.

FSU got very, very lucky in the Transfer Portal this past year, and they deserve all the credit in the world for 13-0. But we saw how his team matches up against elite competition in UGA (hint: not well). The LSU win this year was nice, but BK stinks in big games, and 6 of his other wins came against teams with losing records.

He's 1-4 in bowls. He routinely loses to teams that have equal talent to his squads. He's a very good offensive mind, but his teams lack toughness and he's not very good at developing OL and DL. He would be a disastrous hire and I don't believe he'd do better than 7-5, 8-4 type seasons in Tuscaloosa.

Bama should hire Deboer.

Coming with the heat

This is interesting. i would argue the only opposition to that, would be... The 19th amendment. It's a tie or a close 2nd.

I don’t know. Right now they’re pretty upset about the 14th amendment.

Idk what this means. But, the 14th was a great amendment. Anyone against humanity, in and of itself, should walk the line.
