Probably cost BAMA a National Championship in 2014 and 2016.

No one will name names with regards to the booster wife’s rumor, so it’s likely bullshite.

It’s a known fact he called a very shitty game versus OSU in the 2014 CFP Semifinal, and BAMA lost. Not sure if he was drunk before that one or not. Still inexcusable.

He did get so shite faced before the 2016 CFP Semifinal versus Washington that the training staff had to put him through the wringer so he could call another shitass game. BAMA still won handily, but Saban fired him the next day.

Sark was promoted to OC and called the 2016 Chanpionship Game. BAMA lost.

Lane is supposedly sober now, but he’s still a mealy mouthed bitch, total self serving snake of a man.

Would love to see him flame out @ LSU.

Worse. He was the OC of a team in the playoffs. Took a job as HC of another team and agreed to fulfill his job duties until the season was over. He focused on hiring and recruiting for his new job, and did not focus on preparation of the fricking CHAMPIONSHIP GAME! Saban fired his arse and gave the OC duties to Sark who was on staff as an analyst.

Alabama lost the game.


This is correct. At least publicly. I don't know about all the rumors and shite, but getting fired a week before NCG isn't a good look.

Called a third level pass on First and Ten inside the 25 after a turnover when 'Bama had backs running five yards a clip all game.

That really was it. Tells you all you need to know about 'Bama, Saban, and Kiffin.

I agree with Saban on this. Just run the damn ball.

Hiring Kiffin is akin to marrying a 3-time divorced woman who cheated on all of her exes. Sooner or later, he's going to frick you over too. He's a fricking snake, and at this point, you really can't blame the snake when it bites you.

Or Sark. Or Petrino. We are in a retarded phase of college ball. I don't think Cignetti will work out at IU. Not at that contract.

Elko at A&M might work. Ryan Day at OSU seems to be sustainable until they burn him up.

None of these guys ... none - are so damn smart that they can get you better results - million for million - than the equivalent money in players.

Starting to look like history is repeating itself. Screwed TN, then Bama, now it's Ole Mrs' time for the Kiffin pecker.

He was out all night drinking or whatever and missed the team bus to the game for a playoff game.

Not the first time he was not on time
