It's all about recruiting in college football. If Dabo can get top 5 classes at Clemson, he'd be able to keep it at a high level at UA. Saban is a once a generation coach...no one expects this kind of decade+ dynasty... just keep the program as an annual contender most years.

No, the money isn't. But Dabo regularly acting like such a goober probably will.

Because I'm psychic?

Like every other opinion, it's a projection based on current facts.

So let's settle for some lightweight who's never won shite.

Look, I get that some people just don't like Dabo's personality. My advice is that you just get the frick over it.

It really blows my mind some people wouldn’t want Dabo. The dude recruits extremely well and would do better at Alabama. Not to mention that little fact he has won 2 national championships. I’d love to see everyone’s list who doesn’t want Dabo.

Mike Dubose recruited well at Bama as well. Interestingly enough, Dabo was on Dubose's staff. Hard pass.

According to the other poster, they wouldn't give Lincoln Riley or Ryan Day a look b/c they were "lightweights."

You don't even realize how stupid that remark sounds. Pity.

Dabo would be a lousy choice because he was on Dubose's staff?



Let me just stop for a moment and ask you a question. And I'm dead serious...

Are you really this fricking stupid?

You wouldn't hire Dabo because he was on Dubose's staff?

You're an idiot. If that offends you, tough shite. Stop being an idiot then.

Like I said, you'll be a lot better off if you just get the frick over him.

Compared to a guy who had won two national championships? frick yes, they're lightweights. You're just acting fricking clueless now. Day's defensive scheme against us in the NC game was borderline incompetent.

You just don't like Dabo because of his personality, which is a pretty fricking stupid reason to not want him. The guy we currently have wasn't exactly Mr. Personality when he came to Tuscaloosa. And you know what? I don't give a shite. I don't give a shite what people say about Saban because he fricking wins championships. So does Dabo, and no one else does. So like I said...get the frick over him.

I am staying out of what seems to have become a very emotional Dabo debate , but this I would disagree with. Day doesn't run the D for OSU Kerry Coombs does, I wouldn't blame him for the scheme or judge him harshly for the championship game. Overall OSU's defensive scheme last year was dictated by personnel. They lost a few guys in the draft, had to kick a few guys off the team in the secondary and COVID issues left them weak in the secondary. They just weren't really able to run a lot of nickel and get other guys up to speed (who probably wouldn't have been up to it regardless) with inconsistent availability and only playing 6 games. Really their best slot corner Wade played outside all year and they had no one to replace him inside. This didn't hurt them in the B1G cause they were just better than everyone or against Clemson cause the Tigers didn't have the scheme and offensive personnel along with a playcaller like Sark who was able to exploit the weak secondary everytime.

Dabo reeks of cheating. His own DC has been busted for stealing plays. Bama recruits itself, we'll need a HC that won't let the ist hit the fan and keep the ship running.

This dude is hysterical about some folks not wanting Dabo. It's ridiculous. According to him, Les Miles and Gene Chiizk would be better options than Lincoln Riley b/c they won NCs.

Yeah if you think Dabo is going to turn into a personality like Bryant, Stallings, or Saban just because his paycheck is coming from Alabama I've got some prime beachfront property in Kansas to sell you. Even if his tactics change he's still going to be the goofy jackass he has been for the entirety of his adult life. We tried goofy jackasses. It didn't work.



Concur.

I have never been high on the Dabo stock anyway. I don't mean to discredit the guy, but Les Miles got to a couple national titles also. Even won one. Larry Coker also...

It's the ability to sustain that is needed.

He's boom or bust according to the QB he has. We need a coach than can adapt to the occasion and still win for the most part.

And you don't want a guy with six consecutive conference championships and two national championships just because he was on Dubose's staff when he first started out.



Chizik and Miles? When the frick did they ever sustain anything?

You're what a fool looks like when he keeps trying to save face. You don't even have the capacity for rational thought.

Agree. He's second only to Saban in the playoff era. He's 2-2 in the playoffs vs Saban, and 2-1 in the final game, with one being an absolute arse kicking.

He' elevated Clemson, admittedly in a vacuum with FSU and Miami down, but there's something to be said for that.

Having said all of that--he won't come. He'd be a damn fool to come.

Dabo recruits and develops at a high level at a school that (previously) was largely mediocre for its history and underachieving in recent years.

He would crush it taking over for Saban. No one gives a frick if you like his personality. Obviously recruits, players, assistant coaches, and boosters do because he has them all marching to his tune.

Look forward to people crowing after Dabo-led Bama team gets crushed in a game right after he trash talks the opponent.

And you're an idiot.

What I'm impressed with is 6 straight playoff appearances, two rings, and absolutely kicking our arse. I get that your balls may not have even dropped yet when that run started, but anyone who has actually followed college football for 15 minutes gets it.

How many CFP games has Riley actually won? Surely even you can count to zero.

Let's be clear...it wasn't Riley you said you wanted...you said you wanted Byrne to "land us a Midwest boy that can actually coach"...as if there are guys like Lincoln Riley actually walking around out there. You're so obsessed with hating Dabo that you'd rather roll the dice on someone who wasn't won shite.

And again...you said being on Dubose's staff disqualifies a guy who's been in the playoffs 6 years in a row, won two rings, and absolutely kicked our asses in the process.

You actually said that.
