Huge blow. Happy for Sark but he’s taking a lot of Sabans staff.
Bo Davis will be joining him too...Texas is about to be big again. They will be a Recruiting power house.

UGHHH. This is the worst part of losing coaches to head coaching positions!
Yeah I have to think this was about playing back in the state of Texas more than not liking his status at Alabama. He is a phenomenal recruiter and will be missed. Good luck though coach Banks!
I really hate this. We’ve done well recruiting Texas. It becomes harder not only losing him but now recruiting against him.
Hate to see him go but opens up another spot for us. There has been a lot of turnover in the assistant ranks under Saban with mixed results BUT with new people come new ideas. Can't argue with the success overall.
I’m surprised Saban is allowing this. I thought one of “rules” was not allowing departures to gut his staff.
May be he did some trading. "Look Sark, don't do like Kiffin and Smart did on the way out. Focus on your job, if you do and we win you'll be rewarded"
Or... Sark could be burning bridges, who knows?
Saban was not happy with this move and was supposedly told last night by Banks. Apparently the coaches thought he was staying. I wonder if he wanted to just go back to Texas or if Sark asked him to come with him. He is getting a raise from 750,000 to 1.1 million and being named Assistant to the Head Coach I think. I really wish Sark would not take our coaches... I can understand him taking Flood but not the others.
Jeff Banks is 3rd in the nation in recruiting last year and primarily responsible for Camar Wheaton (who has not yet signed) and Jalen Milroe.

These things do happen. As alluded to, could be, and probably are, back stories in play. Just part of the success. I still never cease to marvel at Clemson, though.
I bet Saban shores that one up real quick........ and I wouldn’t be shocked if Saban doesn’t have a name to take his place. Still, Sark should have respected that Saban didn’t want his staff gutted
Seeing that Golding is the prime candidate for Texas DC now as well. Sark is raiding our pantry on his way out the door!
Yeah, I am wondering if Sark just disregarded Saban about the assistants thing....... of course that opens the door for Strong to be promoted......
Dang we finally had our kicking game clicking on all cylinders. I hope this does not regress our field goals. Really hate this more than any other. Not to mention he has been killing Texas in recruiting.
