Man, Clemson's defense is a disaster in this game and their defense has been a major weakness since he's been their defensive coordinator. Actually looking back on 2007, Alabama's coordinators had to be the primary reason for the team's struggles that year. The team took off after Saban let Applewhite go and demoted Steele and hired McElwain as OC and promoted Smart to DC.

And Kirby didn't get the defensive coordinator title until Kevin Steele left.

Who knows. Saban's washed up. He should retire asap and let you take the reigns.

It's unclear whether or not Saban was contractually obligated to pay him based on the provisions that were in the addendum. Hitherto the negative ancillary considerations of the aforementioned contract participants, the story was that both parties were involved in ad hoc synergistic conversations intended to provide guidance and clear traction in the progress of the negotiations.

Irrespective and unregardless of the state of those discussions, it is widely accepted that Nick Saban is jittery, furtive, platitudinous, contrived, and has the personality of a pulsing, prolapsed, diseased animal fundament. Good thing there are a round table of Alabama fans with sporks in hand.

We also have a lot more talent now. Steele did a pretty good job with what he had.

Apparently he ain't all that good at recognizing head coaching talent either. Glad we never took his advice!!!
