I think saban retiring actually hurts Kirby more than anyone.
99% of the the dna of the program is shite saban came up with and most of Kirby’s hires have been siphoning off old saban staff. We’ll see going forward.
Congrats on trob.

I'm afraid you've underestimated them. Schumann in strong consideration for LBer coach.

I'd rather T-Rob just go somewhere else. Deboer needs to do some house cleaning, players and coaching. No one wants to believe it but Saban had been makings some bad decisions and cornered himself in several areas. I am glad Saban knew it was time for a change.

Jim's wife? Is she going to be fricking the recruits or something?

I think you’re right. DeBore needs to clean up the mess left by Saban, and fans are going to need to be patient while he rebuilds the program.

Kirby kicked Saban in the nuts.

Twice.

Sounds like he wasn’t promised full control to me. Nobody isn’t taking the sole DC job at Alabama to be a CO-DC

Siphoning off Saban’s old staff?

Kirby has hired two former GA/analysts to coaching roles and a DB coach and now he’s dependent on Saban to groom coaches for him?

Thats a Kirby Smart move right there. Smart is a back stabbing prick. He'd frick over his own mother. Glad T-Rob is gone. Saban was far too loyal to people that were just using him.

Yeah I think I’m the future Kirby is going to run out of names for replacements just like saban or belicheck or anybody else.
He’s used Alabama assistants to build his program to this point we’ll see where it goes from here.
Who did he call hire this week? Saban assistant again? Shocking.
We’ll see. Dabo has two titles too. Where’s he at without venebles?

Does anyone else remember when Alabama fans used to beat their chests when Saban made moves like this?
