Link: Jeff Banks joining Sarkisian

I have no info or evidence for it, but I heard an interesting tidbit that Will “Bruce Banner” Muschamp might........might..... be a possible replacement for Golding if he leaves...... again, it’s something that was related to me....

I for one can’t wait to see where Muschamp lands.

He is/was a great college DC.

All this panic reminds me of myself the first time Bama went through this process. Here’s my take, now though. Sark is the new head coach at Texas. His focus is in building the best program he can at Texas. To do that, he is going to hire the best staff he can. His primary concern is not how upset Nick Saban gets. I do not like that our coaches are leaving, but this happens every few years to Bama. Saban will hire new guys to fit his system/process, Bama will keep recruiting at the highest level, and winning at the highest level. The “next man up” mentality does not apply only to the players, it applies to coaches also. These top notch recruiters we are losing are top notch, in part, because of the program they are recruiting to.

He is/was a great college DC.

Being a HC isn't for everyone. He at least gave it a shot.

Strong is now rumored by NFL Network to be heading to Jacksonville with Urban. Go get Muschamp and you've a hell of a staff.

I’d take him...... he did a good job when he was working with Saban

He did and was payed incredibly well to do it pretty poorly.

He wouldn't be at the top of my list but he did have two top 10 (scoring) defenses at Auburn and one at LSU.

For the sake of comparison Golding at Alabama has been 12, 13, 13. I'm fine with Golding staying, but if the game of musical chairs starts Alabama should have some strong options. Meyer and Sark can't hire all three.

Oh, I agree........ time to find out who’s gone and lock someone down. I’d prefer Strong, but if he decides to head to the Jags, good luck to him. There are quite a few good DCs out there

Unless Mush and Saban have gotten over their differences then it’s highly unlikely to happen.

There are a lot of good DCs out there....... I‘d like to see Strong get a shot, but I’ll trust Saban to do what he does best

could even be someone with NFL experience for all we know

It's a dog-eat-dog world. Y'all should know that by now.

 

[deliveryman35]

Isn’t Mike Stoops still an analyst here? Wonder if he would get a look for any position on the staff.

Yep...... happens in the business world all the time

 

[CajunCrimson]

I'm guessing, that if this becomes a mass exodus -- then it's more Texas footing the bill to steal lightning in a bottle.......because either they don't believe Sark can build a program on his own OR they are just out of ideas.

I'm guessing if you wanted to motivate Coach Saban to stay around a little longer..... this is a great way to do it

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

I’m surprised Saban is allowing this. I thought one of “rules” was not allowing departures to gut his staff.

Yeah, not for a lateral move, but if he is stepping into a Coordinator's spot, Coach Saban has historically been ok with that...

And the last thing you want to the be is the guy wearing Milk Bone underwear...

 

[NoNC4Tubs]

He can't stop them if they want to go.

Everyone here knows that. I think the feeling is that there is an understanding amongst the Departing coaches...
