Either no one wanted to follow Saban and declined the opportunity and Byrne was stuck with DeBoer or Bryrne really fricked this up.
This is why you have to either hire a Saban disciple or a phenomenal recruiter. The number one priority should’ve been keeping our current team together.

I think Alabama will be fine and DeBoer was a good hire, but given the circumstances (Saban’s tenure + NIL + transfer portal + TX/OU to SEC) I do believe Alabama would have been much better off naming a coach-in-waiting or hiring in-house just to stabilize the next 2-3 years.
It’s definitely a unique situation given Saban and the current environment, which is still a “new” environment to totally turn an incredibly consistent powerful program totally upside down overnight
