You do realize, of course, that the agreement would have been predicated on Saban’s final decision. Right?
"Saban may retire, we want you to go ahead and agree to be the head coach, in case he does."
Yeah, I seriously doubt that happened. DeBoer would have to be a moron to forego other opportunities to wait for a job that may or may not actually come open.

I’ll ask you like I asked the other guy. Do you seriously think that within 4 days a national title game was played, Saban just started considering retirement, the Alabama AD compiled a list of candidates, contacted the agents of those candidates, contacted DeBoer, interviewed DeBoer, and agreed on a contract, then hired him….all within 4 days?
Sure, it doesn't take as long as many of you think.
I'm sure your AD has been holding a list of candidates for awhile now.

It damn sure didn’t happen that way when LSU hired Kelly.
Kelly was announced like 48 hours after LSU played its final game.

"Hey Kalen, we know you already have a great job, but if Saban were to retire would you be interested?"
"Yes"
"Cool, let's hammer out some details"

Orgeron was fired in October so there was about a month and half before LSU had to scramble to find a cosch after Riley jilted them. LSU Administrators and fans alike were sure that Riley would be the next coach.
Mike Lombardi reported that LSU thought it had Lincoln Riley locked up as their next head coach, in fact he reports that they had a catering company all ready for an announcement on Sunday afternoon, but Lincoln “bailed on them and went to USC”.
Talk about a panic hire…..
