People don't want Kiffin, they want his protege Joey Freshwater.

If Nick Saban already picked his successor, either he didn't tell Ryan Williams or Ryan didn't like the new coach. Ryan just decommitted

There are a probably a lot yall that want Lanning.


Yup, has coached under Saban and Smart and has a lot of experience in the SEC.

Most importantly, he's not a clown on social media, takes his job seriously, and doesn't throw games away by going for it on 4th and a billion in his own territory.

He's also young enough to establish a new dynasty at Bama.

Finally, and most importantly, he'd never hire Pete Golding as a DC.

Kirby was young and UGA is his first job. Seemed to work out.

Need an elite recruiter in this era.

Lanning wouldn’t be a bad hire.

I'm not 100% sure Kiffin would be approved by THE MAN.

LANNING said 0% chance he would leave Oregon.

DABO and Saban are buddies, but Dabbo can't seem to wrap his head around NIL and the Portal. And is Buyout is massively high for Bama specifically

Deboer hasn't been a particularly strong rcruiter.recruiter.

Sarc won't leave Texas.

Excuse me. Just got a call.



Well we'll well. I can't reveal what I was just told but I can tell you that the name hasn't been mentioned on this thread and it is a shocker.

First, it's over. It was over before the statement was released.

Second, he's a friend of Saban. They have worked together.

And it is a shocker.

He was literally interviewing coaches yesterday. He was on Pat Mac Thursday of last week and was fine. Talking about the future. Something happened and I mean suddenly.

Do all of these people that keep begging for Kiffin realize that a year ago he hired Pete fricking Golding to be his DC?

That just dawned on me … which is scary, also.
May be time for a checkup.

One factor is Lanning and Schuman are best friends. All my GA buddies are terrified of him becoming our coach. If nothing else they fear him poaching what they think is the best DC in the country.

One thing that makes me think that this was coming was that on that Pat Mac show, Pat asked him specifically about his future at Alabama and about retirement. Saban gave a different answer than his normal "I've always been a part of a team" and didn't directly say "I'm not retiring"
