Truth hurts. Kids don’t care about playing for a school with 272538046 made up titles. They want to get paid. And Bama is at best 2nd tier in alumni money for NIL. Welcome to my world Yost.

Alabama can always do a Mike Price and set DeBear up at a strip club.

That’s one question.

And let’s assume the following:
1) ID this next Saban

2) you fire Dabear and pay him $63m to go away

3) presuming the new savior is a current HC, how much does this one cost to lure him from wherever he is? Guaranteed $150m, $200m, $250m? Because won’t you have to guarantee above what you gave Kalen?


There is Malzahn waiting to come back to be a HC and he is doing great so far as the FSU OC.

And hire who

Great question. Bama would be making a grave mistake to fire that distinguished coach formerly from the NAIA

There is not a coach out there other than Kirby that is worth paying a $63 million buyout. And he ain’t coming.

Alabama is rolling with Deboer at least two more seasons.

Love it. I agree. Let them go back to their old ways after holding Saban hostage in Miami for 2 weeks.

Realistically they hire Glen Schumann or John Sumrall. The buyout is spread out over years so it’s not as big a deal as people make it out.

Gumps don't have deep pockets. They can't compete financially.

Is my math right jangalang? If Hugh Freeze wins his next two games will he get to .500 as Auburn’s coach?

Your bait has nasty stench. Would revise. Your math is never right.

for DeBacle. How much will the buyout be for the rest of the coaching staff? How much will NIL have to pay the players to keep them at bama? Firing DeBacle would be a massive payout..............this is all before you hire a brand new staff.

I'm tired of the retreads man.

USF's coach
Tulane's coach
Georgia's DC

This is the new blood I think we should go after when Hugh inevitably gets fired. (Not this year)
