There are many good reasons to terminate Kiffin. Play calling isn't necessarily a top 3 reason. If Sark weren't there, no way Saban lets Kiffin go.

I honestly think it was his plan all year. I bet he came up with it in the off season, because of his experience with Smart last year. Saban almost always has a backup plan. Often his backup plans have back up plans. Kiffin was starting to get too media friendly and he did say that he never had any fun in T-Town. He trolls social media, and stills seems quite immature. I have been saying this all year. Clearly, he didn't put the work into his game plan against UW. The man was behaving like a lame duck. Looks like a duck, waddles like a duck, and quacks like a duck. Must be a duck.

Both were solid. Hire Kiffin who is a solid offensive mind but get rid of him before he costs him a championship with his FAU/personal distractions.

Bullshite you've made your mind up. If Saban wanted him here he'd be here. The offensive game plan was crap. Has been second half of season.

Hiring Kiffin, obviously.

Guy turned Blake Sims into a record breaking QB.

Dude's head just isn't in it right now, parting ways was best for both parties. Now he can scout sorority row in Boca.

I think Lane has done tremendous job at Bama. I also think running it 50 plus times the other night and getting the win was the proper game plan. However, it was obviois from the drive killing penaltirs amd mistakes along with the horrible o line performance that there were distractions that hampered preperation.

Made my mind up?

I thought hiring Kiffin was dumb all along for reasons exactly like what is playing out now. He's a cancer

Plenty of OCs could win a title with Bama talent

The decisions seems equal. His hiring had you guys all excited and now his firing has you equally as excited.

ETA>: Also, there will be equal results. A national championship.
