I don't understand why Daboll is so high. He didn't do anything to develop Hurts and he noticeably regressed. I know it's thought that he wanted to play Tua, but as an NFL guy he should have been used to not getting that much control over the roster. When Hurts came back in the 2018 SECCG under Locksley, he looked massively improved again.
There's a reason Saban so easily let Daboll go.

I think Daboll had a good scheme but was not much of a QB coach. I believe the scuttlebutt is he advocated for Tua most of the 2017 season because he knew that was his meal ticket.

Daboll went from being the OC at Alabama to being an NFL OC, which he then parlayed into an NFL head coaching gig and NFL Coach of the Year award. I don't think there was any "letting go" by Saban. He had always been an NFL guy and was probably always going back.

I have no interest in rehashing the Jalen Hurts situation or bashing a great Bama guy.
Daboll was getting guys open and wanted the best QB to play. It’s not his responsibility to force a project RPO QB to become a championship level QB when a future top 5 pick is sitting on the bench ready to unlock the entire playbook and the 4 future 1st rd WRs who were waiting in the wings.
Daboll wasn’t the best we’ve had but he sure was better than the stats because of the situation he was put in and the constraints he had on him during his time here.
