Saban asked about Bill O'Brien: "There's things that we need to do better. I'm not gonna analyze anybody publicly, good, bad or indifferent."

At this point just fricking fire him and give Wiggins, Cox, Wolford, or Gillespie a 4 game audition.

Just watched the presser, yep he didn't give him any vote of confidence. Just said he wasn't going to analyze anyone publicly then went on to say everyone could do a better job.

How about take him and all of his stuff and physically put him out on the curb?

Have the Texans ever really been alive though?

Yes. They were pretty good when Matt Schaub, Arian Foster, and DeMeco Ryans were there and then when O’Brien first got there. He made some extremely dumb decisions to change that.

Well, he was asked in general about the coordinators and their level of responsibility for the product on the field.

Here is Saban's response:

He's completely right, but I hope he realizes that the coordinators are the problem.

He knows. After that presser, I’m feeling a lot better. Saban knows what needs to happen. There’s an anger in him he’s getting ready to make things turn upside down.

That's not his style unless BOB is being derelict in his duty. The reason he fired Kiffin is because Kiffin had already checked out the week of the championship game. Saban doesn't like to publicly embarrass people. No need to fire BOB until the end of season. Just let the season play out.

THIS. IMO Golding is an even bigger problem than BOB. 31 points should have been more than enough to beat this LSU team. Not to mention a team should never, under any circumstances, lose a game when they have scored 49 points.

The season is over. Fire him now and get started on the reboot process. At least it sends a strong message to the recruits that change is coming and we look like we are moving....As it stand right now, recruits wonder about Saban's future, Bama's future, and if it looks uncertain, they'll start looking around.

Golding is problematic but the offense is giving the defense no support at this time. Too many 3 and outs are a bigger issue than any ineptitude of Golding. And, I do think Golding should be fired too.
