Why is it hard to admit the encouraged to look possibility in the case of Thompson?


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?

He may be looking at someone who can handle Thompson's job AND help out in the secondary?

Thompson has been around the block multiple times in his career, IMO he was fortunate that Coach Saban hired him back after the baggage he left behind from his previous stint at UA.

Perhaps their relationship ran its course. Who knows?

Thompson made $400K at Bama last year. If he went to AU for anything less than a raise that should be a telling piece of info.
