🏈 Shaun Alexander?

Am I the only one that thinks Shaun would be a great coach? He has spent more time around the program this year (now that he's retired) and he gave both Ingram & G-Mac advice at the half (and end of the game) against VT and we all heard about the text messages he was sending G-Mac this past week to help build up his confidence. He would be a great role model for young kids, that's unquestionable, and probably the greatest running back in our school's history would def. have a ton of knowledge to give especially to the backs. I don't think there is an Assistant Running Backs Coach but I think that would be a good place to start him off (since he has no coach experience). Just a thought I guess, but regardless I would love him back at Bama and coaching in some way.

I've always thought he would be a great coach and role model

He would be a great coach and motivator as well as a role model for these young guys.

OK, I will play devil's advocate.

Do I think he would be a great coach? Nope. It is well documented that he, to be nice, doesn't burn the midnight oil.

Don't get me wrong, I think SA is a great person. But I don't think he possesses the leadership traits needed to be a good coach.
