I’m not team anybody because Saban is still the coach. Picking a replacement is something to address when that’s no longer the case.

Having said that

He has failed in so many jobs


is demonstrably untrue.

He failed with the Raiders in the NFL. He was 30 and everyone else fails there too. As a college coach, he’s had one losing season (5-7 in 2018 @FAU in 13 years as a head coach and that includes his partial season record when Joey Freshwater got him fired at USC in 2013.

The thing that worries me about Kiffen is his immaturity. One of his staffers was trolling PSU with a fake x account. Just could not imagine Saban ever thinking something like that was acceptable, nor would anyone on his staff do that.

While that’s true. He still failed in Oakland.

7-6 at Tennessee then bailed after one year.

USC 8-5, 10-2, 7-6, 3-2. Seems he was headed in the wrong direction at USC.

Couple of good years at FAU but one year at 5-7(honest question, did he not coach that year?)

And he has done great at Ole Miss. That can’t be denied. But he has done nothing to prove he will win national championships at Alabama. He also hired Pete Golding. And he did not do that as a favor for us like some try to say. Although I praise him for that.

Personally I just don’t think he’s a good fit for us. He’s a good coach and I think that’s his max. But I could definitely be wrong and if we end up with him I hope I am.

Y’all act like Dabo didn’t beat us twice. In the playoffs. And almost a 3rd!

Roll Tide tomorrow though guys!!!!
