So how many coaches will we have to replace?

As of now, it sounds like 4. All of them offensive coaches (and special teams for Banks).

Nearly the entire offensive staff. Only Wiggins is still employed.

I'm again struggling to melt over this.

It is what it is. Hired a great OC, have the GOAT HC, already locked in the 2021 class, loaded roster for the next 2-3 years.

Hopefully Huff doesn't take him as his OC.

Congrats to Coach Huff. He will be missed but this opens the door for some young hungry coaches maybe to join the staff.

Compare this to 2018 when we turned over the staff because Saban was upset and thought we weren't good enough.

These guys are leaving because they did a great job and left the roster and team in a great spot.

Glad for them and know that we've got one helluva product to sell to the next batch of assistants.

That’s my concern as well. I would love to keep Wiggins.

I'm not too worried about the RB or WR coaches. I'm sure Saban has a list of possible replacements at those spots, and the fact that our RB coach just got a HC job, I'm sure there are plenty of top notch RB & WR coaches that would jump at the chance to come here. And those positions don't need a lot of coaching, which is why you see such great recruiters at those spots.

The OL coach is the one that I am the most concerned about. If you don't get a good coach there if affects the whole offense.

Ed Wariner would be nice, but Bostad from Wisky has to get a call.

This is what comes with being the best program in the country. This is also why Saban stockpiles coaching talent like no other. He’s got feelers out everywhere for coaching talent.
Every time we win a natty our staff is going to be decimated, but soon enough, every program in the country will have an ex Alabama coach, and it will stop. We can start rehiring the failures like Jeremy Pruitt haha

Too lazy to look up but is this the most we have lost after a season?

No. Saban replaced nearly the entire staff a couple of times over the years.
