re: What would Bama look like with Dabo?

This could be said for any other coach Alabama hires. The competition is easier everywhere else from top to bottom. But they're still going to have to hire someone, who better than a former Alabama player who is excelling at a job where luring recruits should be much harder than it is at Alabama? He's basically the perfect living candidate unless you want to embarrass yourself with Gruden/Carroll expectations.
