How many years do you think it will take for Kirby to figure out calling a fake punt at midfield on 4th and 11 while the opposing team has their defense on the field, and is pointing at the guy that will get the ball pre-snap is a bad coaching move ?

5 ? 8 ? 15 years ?

It was a stupid-as-frick call, no question, but every coach makes those calls. Saban makes them. The reason you don't hear as much about Saban making them is that Saban isn't usually matched up with a top-level team like Bama, where these calls are going to be ridiculously influential. Had Kirby made it against, say, Auburn, we'd be done talking about it by now.
