Look no matter who's leaving... they still have to recuit for alabama all the way to NSD. That's how Saban has done it before.


No, they don't. Just because it's always been done a certain way, doesn't make it the best way to do it.

No one feels that way about the head coach. If you're changing head coaches, everyone wants him gone asap so you can get the new head coach in place before signing day. Shouldn't be any different for assistants. A great number of players care just as much about their position coach being settled before they sign as a head coach.

If they aren't good assistants or coordinators, let them go early and bring in someone better sooner than later. You gain the excitement of the better coach and helps with bowl practice leading into next season.

Glad to know that you're not the head coach of a football program.

In addition to the possible disruptions to recruiting, there are other problems with that line of thought. Most desirable replacements are involved in bowl preparations for their current teams. It would be crappy for them to leave their current teams immediately. That would be burning bridges for them, which most prefer not to do. Replacing a coordinator(s) prior to the end of the season just doesn't make sense. The coordinator(s) also wouldn't be familiar with our terminology, and not have time to get up to speed. It would just be more distractions to overcome.

Maybe the dumbest take I’ve seen in a while.

Do you honestly think a new DC or OC would have a completely new system in place in 2 weeks? That’s insane, it takes months, minimum.

Plus, it would destroy the recruiting continuity to bring in a new coach right now. Some of you guys are just out of touch with reality.
