And Cochran left because Saban refused to give him an opportunity to advance any farther in the program. After 13 years with him.

Are there Bammers out there that really think he would want to come back after that? Is that what this thread is supposed to be about?

Sounds like Cochran couldn’t handle the promotion. He’s likely in rehab right now.

Glad Saban isn't O just hires people and not interview them. Better yet hire two coordinators that never held the position or actually called plays.

His old job has been filled (by much smarter people), Saban is always on the lookout for analysts though.

Cochran wanted an on the field coaching position namely special teams when he has been a lifelong S&C coach and had no experience as a position coach or coordinator. Obviously Saban isnt going to go for that.

He was a S&C coach, not an on the field coach. He was in the highest position possible for his profession.

He wanted to switch professions, but Alabama isn't in the business of hiring people with less experience than a GA for a critical on the field position of which they are limited to 10.
