Make no mistake, Saban is a huge Alabama fan and will always carry with him forever. They are his legacy as their coach but still has lots of love for LSU too while he was here.

I give Kalen DeBoer a B just for coming in behind the footsteps of Nick Saban. There was a lot of players leaving and almost no hope of them fielding a really good team, and catching up with NIL etc. I think he did better than expected his first two years. Expectations this year for him to win big this year will be brutal.

Great to see him becoming part of the Mardi Gras scene and I’m sure his family as well. I don’t remember hearing anything about Brian Kelly and Mardi Gras.

He didn’t bolt LSU for Alabama. He left for the job with Miami Dolphins. When he left, Alabama pursued him and Les Miles was already coach of LSU.

He was underdeveloped and did not get enough playing time. He is a beast in the NFL!

I believe we will be just fine. With Lane Kiffin I trust.

What Lane Kiffin and his staff have done with NIL and the portal is mind blowing. He and his staff hit the ground running with who they were targeting and closed on many outstanding proven players from all over.i cannot wait to see how this roster shapes up in the spring and summer practices and who will emerge as potential stars.
What a difference in what Lane Kiffin is bringing to LSU and utilizing the resources he has at his disposal versus what we saw with Brian Kelly the last 3- years.
The best is yet to come, buckle up!

I agree. The coaches obviously did not like what doctors were saying about his injury. He is a big roll of the dice. More upside to signing Longstreet even if we over pay a bit for him. We need a QB that has talent to develop with this staff.

No. Fans were not as upset that he went to Miami, but blew a gasket when he announced he was going to coach at one of the fiercest rivals of LSU, Alabama. Saban would have liked to come back to Baton Rouge but unfortunately Les Miles had his old job, thus he took the Alabama job and the rest is history. Imagine if Drew Brees had passed the physical at Miami?

I was with a group of friends from Long Beach Mississippi and we hung out in the quarter had dinner at Mr. John’s Steakhouse, and had as much fun as I have ever had in New Orleans watch LSU beat Oklahoma on TV. What a great memory!

This guy cannot be depended upon when needed.
