Just giving the criteria. It's the search committee job to find the ones to fit.

The other criteria is having guys who want to leave their current jobs for this one. There’s only a handful of guys that fit your criteria and pretty much all of them already have big jobs.

You’re basically setting yourself up for extreme disappointment no matter who Bama hires

Players are going to hit the portal, this team was not going to keep everyone if Smart had been announced minutes after Saban retired.

The dude literally has won everywhere he’s been. I’m wagering his own personal expectations are pretty damn high. So he should have zero issues with the ones he’ll face in Tuscaloosa.

And Urban Meyer had been at Bowling Green, Toledo, and pre-pac-12 Utah.

Also just went to the natty and was a couple of horrible bone head over throws by the QB from winning the thing.

Latest from the team at ESPN -- Washington coach Kalen DeBoer is the focus of Alabama's search, with some clarity expected in the near future. Mike Norvell got a raise. Steve Sarkisian is working on one.

And he coached in the NAIA. So he’s primed and ready for the new SEC with Texas & OU.

Word was he was going in the portal (to Texas A&M) last week but got talked out of it. Looks like it's on again.

If you coached at Fresno you can coach anywhere, it is the Mad Max of coaching jobs.

Bond could be even more of a star under DeBoer's offense than he was this past season. Would be a mistake for him to jump ship right away if so.

Yeah. I think that’s a bit of a mistake if Kalen is the hire. He will have stupid numbers.

Probably not thrilled with our qb's ability to run the offense.
