Major blow or the gumps recruiting. He was their primary contact for most of their high profile targets.

I have confirmed from multiple sources that Lance Thompson was told to find a job elsewhere.

Spin it how you want. This is a blow. Oddly, most AU fans are meh. Most wanted Barrow.

Go look to see how Bama did the last time he left. It sure struck a major blow.

I did. All of his primary contacts as a recruiter won UA two titles, and are playing in the NFL.

So we have Lance Thompson to thank for this multiple championships while he wasn't even at the school. Thanks for clearing that up.

This is what I figured. No way a program in the red could outbid Alabama for a coach they wanted to keep

Why would Bama fire Lance Thompson, their best recruiter outside of Saban himself, weeks before NSD?
