It's the spin machine in action.

bama didn't win it all so it has to be......"not enough team leadership", or "coaches infighting trickled down to the team", or "(insert excuse here)". It didn't have anything to do with being out-coached and outplayed.


Not every fan feels this way. I'll readily admit Bama got out-played in a loss on the road to Ole Miss and they got out-coached in a loss to OSU in the playoffs (how do you not commit to the run up 21-6?).

That said, sometimes the explanation for staff changes is that they got better jobs, wanted raise and got it elsewhere, personal reasons, or were encouraged to look. Why is it hard to admit the encouraged to look possibility in the case of Thompson?

I think he probably was. I just do not think it was because these professionals were at each other's throats as the OP says Finebaum implies.

What better way to get the off season going than making vague comments about staff issues larger than anything since DuBose to keep viewers?

That wasn't part of finebaum's excuse today.

I just find it hard to believe that saban, after hiring somebody on three different occasions, just all of a sudden feels a need to get rid of him..........all of this comes out after he lands at your biggest rival. DB play is what has been bama's problem on D the last few years. What is he doing to rectify that?
