re: New Alabama OC has 1 year experience as OC and was fired after 1 season at IU!

It's hilarious to watch some of the same Bammers who constantly trash BK, now justify their own younger, less experienced version of BK

Eh... the biggest issue with Kelly is his age.

He's shown us what he is. A good but not elite head coach. We should expect the same from him going forward.

Deboer deserves to have more optimism as he's taken a team to the playoff final in his second season at UW, made drastic improvements in 2 years at Fresno State and finished 4th, 1st, 2nd, 1st and 1st in his 5 years at a NAIA level.

To be honest, his resume looks a lot more like Urban Meyer's when he was hired by Florida than it does like Brian Kelly's.

He is less experienced, so it's possible he flops. But his resume lends itself more toward optimism than Kelly's does/did. Kelly's resume screams 9-3 every year. Deboer has only had 3 losses or more twice in 9 seasons as a head coach. Kelly has had 3+ losses 23 times in 32 seasons.
