re: Fire Pete Golding

I think this season was the most painful to watch in the Nick Saban era. This is because we were painfully bad on both sides of the ball (O and D). Apart from maybe Bama's early growing pains under Saban, that has never been the case.

I'm trying my best to forget this (still ungoing) season, but didn't we set negative yardage and penalties records this year, going all the way back to 2007?

If it was painful for us to watch, then it most have been a bloody horror for Saban. Listening to Gimme Shelter after a win must never have given him and Miss Terry less joy than this season...

So, that is why I trust that Saban replaces both his coordinators. The PG experiment has run its course: he's not going to improve our D (he has regressed big time this year) and he is sure as heckfire not going to teach our ILB's anything that is for certain.
