I’ve made it obvious I am in the camp that thinks Saban could have done much much better with both of these hires, especially with the DC. I honestly do not believe these hires are upgrades and are lateral moves at best. And I find all this talk of “I’m beginning to like these hires” or “we will have to just wait and see how they do” or “how can you be upset they haven’t called a play for Alabama” talk ridiculous



This is going to sound like I’m being an arse but I’m not. What makes you think Saban didn’t hire the best available? There is this mistaken perception that Alabama can hire whoever whenever they want and that is simply not true. So who would you have hired that you know would accept the job at Alabama?

Look I may get disappointed in a hire but it’s never directed at a head coach who has had the success That Saban has had. I mean what else could he possibly do to create a better work environment than what he has done at Alabama? If this is who was available and would accept the job then what else could possibly be done. Fans create false narratives based on their love for a school and believe it to be reality. Truth is no one but those inside the program and the individuals themselves know what transpired.

I didn’t take your post as you are an arse, right.

I just answered this a few posts back in this same thread but to be brief, Pruitt as DC, we know he was available, and we have heard he was leading at one point for the job.

And it isn’t necessarily either hire that’s terrible, to me it’s the two of them together. I don’t think Ress will run an offense that can score enough points to make up for the defense Steele will run and the opposite is also true. Sark and Pete together didn’t make Pete acceptable, but Sark could make up for what Pete lacked, I don’t think these guys can do that.
