Mack Brown

I thought about this one earlier.. he is one of the few who could handle the expectations and he has always been one of the best recruiters on the planet.. he would actually be a great transition coach imo

eta: Bring on Schumann as DC and coach in waiting

I don't desire to see Alabama suffer just because they've been great for so long. This thing keeps popping up on the internets that their next coach needs to "have experience in the South" - whatever that means and I haven't seen a justification for it or explanation. Their next coach needs to be someone that can handle what their program has become, and expectations that come along with it. But if they "need" some southern gentleman or whatever - Mack Brown would do just fine. He can recruit, build, coach, and handle boosters.

The other two are guys I think have some positives to them, can coach ball and could stop the bleeding. You saw what A&M went through with Jimbo and that search, ending up with Elko - and it's a bad look for that program. Alabama needs to get this done in less than 72 hours and not have it look like their top choices all turned them down, get some stability and someone who can coach ball.
