re: So is it safe to say Golding is staying?

I think if Golding stays the biggest thing that kept him here was Saban didn’t get the guy he wanted.

I think we'll see a change after NSD.

I don't really think anyone cares what your opinions are om this topic because you have shown you lack any kind of objectivity.

as previously noted, I don't know why Saban doesn't just coordinate the defense himself, especially since he's one of the best defensive coaches in the game. Quite a few head coaches coordinate their offense, and I know there are and have been some head coaches that coordinated the defense, though head coaches don't generally refer to is as coordinator whether offense or defense.

I think Saban is as capable as any other head coach to manage the team and coach the defense too. Perhaps he thinks that coordinating the defense during the games would sometimes take his attention away from what's going on with the offense. Maybe that's not such a bad thing. If you trust the offensive coordinator enough to hire him, let him run it.

edit to say that I'd trust Sarkisian to run the offense more than I'd trust Golding to run the defense.

Far far be it for me to support Orgeron but I think he stayed out of the way of the offense and let Brady do his thing this past season. That is, I'm nearly certain is was Brady's offense and not Ensminger. Still, up until Tua's injury vs UT our offense was as good. In fact, Tua had thrown for more tds than Burrow had, and had only 1 interception to Burrow's 3. I'm starting to ramble now so I'll shut up.

Just to say that if Golding is returning, I hope Saban is heavily involved in the defense, at least more than apparently was the case last season.

Something else to consider with Golding.

It was rumored he had some off field family issue going on. That can mean a lot of different things. Either way, I'm sure it played a role and affected the job. Perhaps, he solved that issue and Saban feels that Golding can get it done with a healthy defense and him (Golding) being able to focus 100% on the task at hand.

As you said, "and even much more".

Actually, it was never conquered by the next world power, as was Medo-Persia, Babylon, Greece for example. It was much more decaying of standards within the infrastructure that allowed it to politically, religiously, socially, slowly sink into the sunset after many centuries of abuse.

It works.

Except I was the one who pointed out the insider information on the topic was bullshite and have been right about the situation the entire time.

And I have 0 inside information.

You guys are just fueled by your own ignorance and don't want to admit it was the offense that caused our losses this year.
