most of their top targets probably did not want the job TBH, being in the shadow and all of the GOAT.

Saban retiring...

struck gold with Penix transferring over.
it will be very interesting to see what happens in Tuscaloosa then next 3 years.

I know and I hear you. I heard someone say it’s actually an advantage (ludicrous).
I’ll be super curious

Go out and get Pete Carroll he's already in the state.

But that’s not why Kiffin is persona non grata in Tuscaloosa

Yes
Absolutely

Kiffin can bang all the young chicks in Miami and we won't give a fuck.

Its pretty obvious that Saban hates Kiffin and would never sign off on him as the replacement.

Even if it’s John Ruiz’ wife and/or daughter?
In this offense, you better have a damn good QB. Shouldn't be a problem at bama.
They will have to switch from a dual threat QB and run heavy team to more back in the Tua days when Saban opened it up.
This is actually a great place for him to go. Maybe after he wins the natty next year.

As of today, the worst QB talent-wise in Tuscaloosa finished 6th in the Heisman voting

Ruiz probably wouldn't be ok with it but I would.

I've had enough with being irrelevant and thats all Miami will be with Cristobal. Yeah Kiffin isn't a great character but if he wins he can do whatever he wants.

But it would probably eliminate him from head coach consideration, no?
brewers888
Chicken Little
Maybe for a proud program like Alabama but beggars like Miami have to do whatever it takes to get back to what they were. They can always put some sort of character clause in his contract if he does something completely unacceptable.

I totally understand why Alabama wouldn't touch Lane and I also get why that job isn't for everyone.

Cristobal can recruit like he's been given 24 hours to live but coaches like he's lost in translation.
A big start would be having a stadium that's not 20 miles from campus.

Always figured that to be a problem with UCLA too
Let's face it those two schools should have zero issues being relevant year in and out given their locations

So we got a guy from South Dakota that isn’t really known for recruiting coming to Alabama
And we jumping for joy?

Recruiting is clearly the biggest concern. The script A on his shirt should help, and hopefully that is the only area where Saban helps out from his new office in the stadium unless KDB asks. I know it's a different sport, but Nate Oats was an unknown recruiter when he came down here too

Davis did a great job with the interview. I like Saban even more now, if that's possible.

I think that interview is the first time I've ever seen Rece talk about being an Alabama fan

Went to school there, no?

Yes, he's from the Shoals area in NW Alabama. Think maybe 2 degrees from Alabama. But you'd never know it watching him on a weekly basis. Consummate professional, which is great, but sometimes you want that Bammer to come out every once in a while
KJ

He's good at that job from what I've seen, filled in nicely for what Fowler left. Would never have known who he is a fan of which makes the elite. Fowler was very good at that as well and while we ended up knowing he went to CU, he hardly ever talked about it.
The problem with the rest of the show is everyone finally quit trying and decided to just go full blown bias, Herb is so bad now. He used to be somewhat tolerable when not talking about tOSU and he clearly has an affinity for ND as well. The Aikman effect was bound to hit CFB at some point I guess.
KJ
Bump. Set. Shuma!
That's the kicker, big difference between PbP and analyst too, much easier to keep bias out when your job is to control the flow. But I hope McElroy doesn't become that guy that doesn't say what he's thinking in an effort to not be biased. We all know you went there, just throw in criticism when it's warranted and praise away when they're good.
Herbie hardly ever criticizes tOSU, he's an excuse maker with a microphone. I guess it's blatant at least.

I love Ingram and hate him at the same time lol
Frank Costanza

I pay pretty close attention to the Cowboys and don't see a Dallas bias from Aikman. I think he does a good job of being critical or complimentary as necessary, when calling a game or otherwise. He has a Thursday morning show on local radio and has not hesitated to take shots at Jones / the family, Dallas coaching, Prescott and others. He's tactful when being critical but is critical when he sees fit, at least from what I've seen and heard.

He's so likable, but he is so full of Bama I see why you wouldn't lol. LSU has a lot of guys like that too
