This is going to be such a strange experiment. If he comes in and has success, he could quickly move on since he won’t actually be the head coach here. How will our fanbase react to that, if we get stuck with Sam and he goes elsewhere?

On the flip side, if he fails, it will be a tough pill to swallow since we all hold him on such a high pedestal as we saw today.

Perfect world, he has success, Sam retires, he takes over, we win the national championship the year after Saban retires.

No, we beat Saban in his final year to win the NC. BP retires his arse.

The reason Sam is holding on so tight to the reigns isn't just the $$$... He truly wants to leave being a success here. He doesn't mind sharing the credit.

This is his chance. He would retire with great success and leave the reigns to whomever we desire to hire. At least that's how I want to frame it.

He isn’t leaving unless it’s to take a head coaching gig.

I said last year we should hire Bobby as OC and see if he still has it, Sam could teach him how to recruit, which was the only area he lacked.

If it works, he would probably take over here when the stop gap coach was put out to pasture. I don’t know, if that will happen, but who knows. Also if you are Sam put him through media training, so he doesn’t come across like the count he is.
