Bama AD has known about this retirement a long time


Seems to be a lot of people in BR that knew about this. Are the rumors of Mrs Terrys health true?

Under that theory, Ole Miss had a better year than Alabama. Better to win a meaningless bowl game than lose in the playoffs.

I'm sayin' he was sayin' not about Sayin, just about the rhymes: "planning, Lanning, Manning". I'm surprised he left out Dakota Fanning and Carol Channing.

It’s astounding the amount of idiots in this thread. Pate said none of this. He didn’t list a single name and said he would be shocked if a decision wasn’t made in the next 3-4 days

Hard not to around here. You guys are really hard to ignore. Like if the Chinese population started walking in a single file straight line the line would never end because of reproduction, so are the LSU alters here.

Bama fans are now facing the terrible truth for them - there will never be another Saban and thus there is no homerun hire. They will get a good coach but Bama’s domination of college football is over.

Why would Saban care who follows him. He's gone and if anything he would like to the see program dip a little, for his reputation.

I hope so. He will fail at Bama.

He learned well. He would probably make a better AD as well.

I hope Bama goes a different direction.

Lanning is like Kirby and Saban in his work ethic, particularly around recruiting.

While still only in his second season as a head coach, he's 22-5 and managed to turn Bo Nix from a punchline into a Heisman finalist. Of his 5 losses as a head coach, 3 were to teams that made the national championship game.

He's the coach I want Bama to hire the least.

Pate did not say this. He did confirm that Saban was retiring but what he actually said was that bama was "rounding third & heading home in its hiring of their next head coach." Possibly in the next 3-4 days. But he mentioned no names.
