re: Alabama after Saban

Like Price? Dubose? Shula?

Dubose was hired over 20 years ago and was an assistant who was promoted due to fan support. Bama won't make that same mistake again, especially given the state of the program at that time vs state of program today. (Nevermind that fact that DuBose did manage to win an SEC title).

Price was hired as a conference championship winning coach. He wasn't a bad football hire. He was a bad human hire.

Shula was hired in May. When you fire a coach in May, your choices for replacement are somewhat impacted.

ALL that said, you know damn well Bama is in a much better position to hire in the mid 2020s than they were in the mid/late 1990s. But keep telling yourself whatever you have to in order to feel better about it as an L7U fan.
