Who is Saban's replacement?

[RollTide82]

Mark Schlabach just said Lane Kiffin was never considered because of the way he left in 2016. Because he was fired the Monday before a national championship game.

That’s not it

If we can somehow also get Grubb as OC, that would be the best possible news I can think of, short of us hiring Sark or Smart. I think Bond would have to come back if we could manage to pull Grubb. Simpson takes the reins next year while we develop Sayin. A guy can dream...

I would think Grubb would be a boon for Ryan Williams recommiting too

Washington fans or boogs?

Yes

Looks like a pretty assorted bunch so far

Finebaum, on his show now, is discussing Lane Kiffin and why he was not hired. In my opinion, if Kiffin had conducted himself with some display of maturity while he was our OC, I believe he would have been hired to replace Saban. With that said, I am pleased with our hire

Can’t hurt - look at UW’s passing game this year.

Home run hire.I like it!

 

[BamaNation]

Just got from my Texas buddy…

 

[BamaInBham]

Finebaum show is amazing right now

In what way?

 

[Crimson Duck]

I have to say, this is the hire I was hoping for. Proven winner at every level. This is a home run and wouldn't be surprised if it came to light that he was the first choice and not Lanning.

Finebaum is slime. Never miss an opportunity to drag someone through the mud.

Probably mad that they wasted all that TP the other day

Well he better get started quick because Bond aint the only Star going to the portal. It is beginning to sound like all the “we are brothers” talk this season was just that…talk.

 

[bamacon]

That’s not it

Keep thinking that

 

[crimsonkelly]

Unfortunately, money does the talking for this generation.

 

[tidefan39817]

I’m starting a “Who do we hire after we fire DeBoer” thread.

only if he loses the first coin toss...

“Until the transfer portal do us part”

 

[teamplayer]

isn’t he basically a younger version of Steve Spurrier? On the field, at least.

I seem to recall Spurrier winning championships before he did his talking.

 

[tidefan39817]

All we would have to do is blitz every play.

zone blitz...

I've said it more than once; I think the 'team choosing' was a smaller, but more vocal part of the team than we might have thought at first.
