Finebaum used to have Jim Donnan on his show a few years ago. Don't know if he still does or not. Donnan stated on Finebaum's show that a group of SEC coaches told DuBose to his face they were going to turn him if he didn't do something to get Bama's recruiting under control. I actually heard Donnan make that statement live

Mike DuBose had neither the will nor the competence to bring our boosters under control in regards to recruiting. The man loved Alabama football. There is no question about that. But he knew jack about coaching a big time program.

Mike Dubose was inept in damn near every facet of operating/managing/coaching a program of Alabama's magnitude. He had no idea how to handle boosters or any other component of a big time football program.

Bama's problems related to the NCAA and the Means case stem directly from absolute clusterfrick of a decision to hire Mike Dubose.

Again, you love to beat the "Bammer cheats" drum but I can assure you that when Saban came in, the law was absolutely laid down to the booster community both publically and very much in private. Bama has paid very dearly for its boosters' behaviors and no one wants to return to that era.
