Hearing the deal is done. Not real sure about this hire. Hope it turns out well.

How do Bama fans feel about the guy?

You missed the right board by a hair.

Bad move IMO. UT isn't a good place to go right now especially if they fire Dooley next season Sunseri probably won't keep his job.

He's a good coach. If he leaves, I wish him the best of luck.

What a douche he is.


I knew nothing about him and never need to learn another word after seeing him taking credit for Julius Peppers' earning his fat contract in the NFL on that recruiting video with Rasco.

Anything that makes Gumps a little sad is fine by me.

Has he ever been a DC?

The coaching turnover bug is about to hit Bama. It always happens when you are successful. E'rebody want what/who you gots.

If that upsets you, you're naive as hell.

So we've picked up the national recruiter of the year and ACC recruiter of the year in the last tow days. To go along with Jay Graham. Good stuff.

Recruiters are great but Cordinators need to be great football coaches. This isn't a sure thing. Time will tell. Hopefully we got a little better today.

Good hire by UT, bad move by Sal if true. He will be looking for a new LB coach job after next year with less pay.

Outstanding coach and fantastic recruiter.

No idea why he'd leave the opportunity to coach his son and be a key player in Bama's coaching staff for the next couple of years.

Huge step backwards, IMO - because of Dooley's situation.

Not if he improves their defense, right?

He might just makes himself an even hotter commodity if he can turn UT around.

Having said that, it's ballsy to hitch up to Dooley.

People don't realize how hard it is to recruit quality talent to UT. For whatever reason, the in-state talent typically sucks, so they have to try to convince these kids it would be a good idea to leave Florida, California, Georgia, etc. to play for UT.

The rumor mill is grinding about Dooley going international, and hiring the offensive coordinator for the Chinese National Team, Win Sum Soon.

Hate losing him. I thought Pendry, McElwain,and Sunseri were the top three and most important Bama assistants. All of them gone if Sal leaves.

Sal back to Bama as DC when Smart leaves.
