Why do we think he's coming as analyst? Have I missed something?

Because people still think TDA has actual sources.

If he doesn’t it should be a wake up call for everyone.

A lot more people than TDA have said it but I doubt it.

Also Scott Payton alluded to "conditions" that Saban has put on both coordinator positions that impacted who took these jobs.

No idea, but Josh Pate made the same allusions.

Also, Stephen Smith of TD Alabama magazine said his info is that Pruitt said he would only come to bama as an analyst if we got a DC he trusted, and that Pruitt specifically named Kevin Steele as an option.

Yeah if you're just now hearing about this then you've missed a lot I assume.

I have a hard time believing Saban was dictated to by Pruitt about who he could hire as DC. Saban would just pass on Pruitt if that were the case.

If Pruitt and Saban had a talk about a DC I bet it was Saban asking what he,Pruitt thought of working with Steele. They are all three friends so there is that.

I figure Saban and Pruitt talked pretty candidly about the obstacles, options and timing for getting him hired as DC. I also think it's still the goal and that Steele is supportive of it.

Don't hire JP (any capacity) until after the BB seedings have been finalized and Bama gets the gig in The Ham (hopefully).

Don't piss off the NCAA.

I am starting to have a very good vibe about all this. I think Saban has decided to get back to what works.

Hate to link to Paul Finebaum’s Twitter, but Chase Goodbread was on Finebaum’s show today and said that he thinks Pruitt will be back at Alabama as soon as the NCAA issues get cleared up.
