First off in the last game I was overly critical of CKD. I was completely over the top and I apologize to Tidefans. My emotions were driven not by the loss but the way we lost because I never envisioned the CFP allowing us in over ND. No matter because the result of my emotions were completely wrong no matter the outcome of the CFP.

I have always liked CKD and want him to succeed I believe he will. There will never be another Saban in my lifetime but CKD will do better than anyone I can think of. Today he has won me over win lose or draw against Oklahoma by his commitment and loyalty to our program. He has rebuffed two storied programs to continue to lead the Alabama Crimson Tide. He doesn’t know, need, or probably will see or care about me or this statement: but in a day and age where everyone is about the Benjamin’s it is refreshing to see someone make such statement and stand. I as a fan will stand by you CKD and I believe Bama Nation will rally around you too!

RTR!!!

Thanks for fixing title didn’t mean to make it a teaser

Are you going to feel the same if we find out soon that he has a newly renegotiated contract? Not sure if true or not, but there is some rumbling that Byrne is hammering out details this evening.

For me the statement is huge, if Byrne has renegotiated a new contract to keep CKD that is fine as well. However it shakes out the fact still remains that he has turned down interest from two other schools with a storied history. His statement says he has no interest in any other jobs but the one he has for me I take him at his word, but that is how I feel everyone is entitled to their own interpretation.

RTR!!!

sadly, that probably won't be enough to shut up the nonsense
Well, he didn’t say HIS REPRESENTATIVES haven’t been talking with any other team. Loophole.


Sadly, I heard a MICHIGAN MAN in the gym telling someone that it’s pretty much a done deal , that DeBoer wanted to go to Michigan when Harbaugh left , especially now he is very unhappy in Tuscaloosa and with the expectations of the Alabama fanbase. I started to ask the guy why would any coach want to go to the cesspool that is Michigan/ B1G. With the sex scandals, coaches getting arrested , Pedo St , the Pedo at Michigan State, the cheating scandal at Michigan, etc.

Glad Coach put out the statement. I didn’t think he was going anywhere.

I too was in the Move on from Coach DeBoer after Florida St. but that had more to do with the team in general. At that time they were 4-5 over their last 9 VS FBS teams. There was no team discipline evidenced by all the penalties over that stretch, no fire from the team, sleepwalking . Nothing seemed to change over the off season. But as the season went along, it was clear in critical areas there was improvement. Now, we have some areas that need a lot of improvement , and it is still a work in progress. But I / we should support CKD to see what he can do. He is recruiting at a very high level, the team is winning, maybe not as much as we would like, but, I feel if we get healthy we can make a run in the playoffs.
