[rick4bama]

Now, because of Nick Saban's sudden retirement on Wednesday, Alabama players have an additional 30 days to enter the transfer portal if they wish.

Butch Jones!

Omg. ... butch was an excellent assistant....

 

[24and7]

Well. They will fuck everything up if a new HC isnt announced immediately...
Like tomorrow

He hast to get fired from New England Patriots first

 

[ElephantStomp]

Let’s throw a bunch of cash at either Sark or Lanning.

I really hope Saban didn’t pick his replacement

 

[50+yeartidefan]

Dabo...come home!!!

 

[BamaFan334]

Dabo...come home!!!

Gah lee, no way.

Gah lee, no way.

Who else has a 15-0 and 2 national championships....

 

[BAMAneck]

How has he done since venables has left

 

[bama alum]

Fuck no.

He's been a head coach for 3 years.

That's not a track record to replace the GOAT.

Lanning's name is being tossed around a lot. First of all, who in his right mind would want to be the guy who replaces Saban?? Maybe a less experienced coach might be the way as it opens the door later on. Maybe that's a bad take but a Lanning/Schumann combo beats ANY idea like Dabo, Kirby, and...quite frankly, Kiffin. Secondly, please AD Byrne, don't hire a guy named Mike. HELL NO! Finally, I would think that before this announcement dropped that both Byrne and Saban not only have created a short list, but have also basically picked the successor and his agent has already been contacted and help create an informal agreement.

The text conversation you shared, @Sgt. Lincoln Osiris , I think you're dead on about the money.

Kirby.

 

[64Tide]

Lanning 20 mil buyout I’ve heard.

 

[SnakeDoc]

Lanning 20 mil buyout I’ve heard.

Wow.

Maze's take:

 

[MunchyOs]

When The Bear retired, Ray Perkins said that Alabama fans would need to get used to 9-3 kind of seasons. Hopefully the next guy doesn't say that

I would have no problem with Lanning he's young and a defensive guy. I think he relates to players extremely well in this day and time.

I hate Auburn.
