As Nick continues to get closer and closer to wearing DEPENDS undergarments, the topic comes up of his replacement.
We all know who replaces Lil' Nicky, that's a tough gig for whoever gets it. Kirby would be the dream get for Bama but we all know that's not happening and won't even be offered.
So whose next on the list?
I believe the most logical fit is DAN LANNING
1) damn good recruiter
2) was an analyst at Bama in 2015
3) OLB and DC at UGA under Kirby
4) having early success at Oregon as HC
5) charismatic/positive guy
6) young - 37yrs old
I don't see a better hire out there. While Oregon is a great job, it's not a Top 5 job and is a long way from the South where the best recruits are.
What do you Bama guys think? I see Lanning at the top of the list.

Rumor is Kirby is begging for the job

Brian Daboll after the REC blackmails him and gets him fired from the Giants.

I hope so! He will win at least 10 games a year against all of the teams they are better than and then lose 2 to the teams that are either on or close to their level

I think the SEC has about 5 more years of azz-kicking coming before we will even consider it.
Curious, 5 years ago, what did the list like?

So many prisoners of the moment in the swampland. And selective too. Tennessee, Georgia, and TAMU for the short-term memory impaired.

What if, and this is a very large what if. Saban coached 5 more years and won 2 or 3 more Natties. Bama decided they wanted Kirby, and by then he was making 15 milion a year at UGA. Bama offers 20 million a year. I am not saying they would or that he would come, but it would be intriguing. UGA would have to match it would they not??
