Idk guys, this might be the end to an unbelievable run of dominance. I was skeptical last year at the 2 hires of OC and DC and for good reason as it turns out. This just might be the 2 most important hires of Saban’s career coming up soon. If he misses again with his choices, he might just say enough is enough.....let’s just hope he doesn’t miss!

So you would prefer Saban truck along with inferior hires in your view?

I think it's more like he hopes Saban makes good hires...

It would feel more like the end if Saban stuck with the status quo after getting dismantled in the title game.

So he missed with his choices, we went 14-1 and played in the championship game. Guy is totally losing it for sure.

Guys...I’m saying he FAILED with his last 2 choices to lead the offense and defense and that his next 2 choices might be the 2 biggest hires of his career! He can’t afford to make those mistakes again is what I meant. I did not like the 2 hires last year at all!

I realize you may have only been a Bama fan for 10 years or so, but let me clue you in on something: You can't win it all every single year.

He overcompensated based on what Kirby was doing in recruiting and ended up weaker on Xs and Os than we needed to be at the end of the year. He's adjusting.

Yep, he knows where the weaknesses were and he's addressing those now. Thankfully we already have an insane recruiting class sewn up.

Exactly...imagine how much more talented they can be with better coaching!

It could very well be the end, but if it is I'll be glad as hell that Saban went down fighting and didnt fall into a coma of accepting mediocrity.

I remember having horrible seasons and Shula refusing to make changes. I'll take what's going on now, over that in a heartbeat. Coach wants to win

Think its time to look for a head coach in waiting?

Need some stability that's for sure.

Take some Xanax and you might feel better.

These don't work... the majority of the time the guy waiting just leaves because it's taking to long or you realize they aren't actually who you want to hire when the head coach retires.

He needs to take about 25 of them and we'll all feel better.

Saban knows what he is doing. If we didn’t have the #1 class basically in the bag Already, these moves prolly wouldn’t be happening right now . And if it is the end.....it has been one hell of a ride . You live long enough you will appreciate this run. The other times have not always been fun

I don't understand this sentiment, at all. For Christ's sake, we will likely blow out every team again next season, and make the playoffs. Does that seem like the end to you?
