Honestly I have skepticism that Saban was recommending him. He had the option to make him DC or Co-DC before


Kevin Steele made it sound like he had inside information that TRob would be moving up "very soon." He knew he was retiring, and clearly thought the guy was going to get an interview so to say.

For me it's gotten a little personal with Kirby thinking he can raid our staff like he's big dick on campus.

I would really like to take Schumann by offering him the full DC position, or hire TRob back as full DC simply to send a message to Athens that we still run shite. You'd think us beating their brains out 9 out of 10 last games would clear that up but kirby is proving to be a ruthless coach. Good for him.

He was likely moving up but Saban would have still been there. My guess is he would have been co-DC as well, but to be fair I have no way of knowing that.

Either way I don't think DeBoer could or should be comfortable with TRob having to run the defense completely by himself for the first time without a D head coach or a Co-coordinator, even with a Saban endorsement. It is begging for problems that could harm his tenure.

As this isn't me disliking TRob if they offered him full DC and he accepted I would jump right on board, I would just have my concerns.
