What does that tell you?

He first turned down Saban when he was still there. Now, he turns them down again after Saban's gone.

Sweet home, Alabama? I don't think so.

It tells us he's only leaving UGA for a head coaching gig.

Was he offerred? Serious question. I like Schumann a lot and at some point we need to get him in the fold back at Bama for the future.

DeBoer runs a 4-2-5, why would he go after a 3-4 DC? Never saw his name mentioned except by fans.

I thought for sure Schumann was going to be new DC at Bama, and that was scary. But Deboer went with some dude from S. Alabama.

Retention would have been a lot better if he would have went with Schumann.

He knew there was more stability at UGA for him to mature as a coach.

When was he in the conversation for a job at Bama? I only ever recall people on message boards mentioning him as someone they'd like to target. I don't recall seeing anything about him actually being targeted by the school.

It tells you that things like money, stability, and opportunity are a hell of a lot more important than an alma mater.

Coaches care very little about their alma mater compared to money, wins, stability, and opportunity.

Alabama-Auburn is the most heated rivalry in college football, and the list is long of people who have played and/or coached at both schools. THEY DON'T GIVE A frick, PEOPLE.

Caleb Downs twice turns down his home state school. Is there a problem at UGA?
