re: Since hiring its new coach, the silence from the Alabama fans has been deafening!

Reality:
Kalen DeBoer is a huge risk for Bama whose Mikey outcome is 5 years and fired.
…and he is by far the best hire available to them and a total slam dunk from the Bama perspective.
No big name coach was going to leave a big pocket established program to come replace Saban at Bama. DeBoer is by all accounts a fantastic coach…who is two 3 loss seasons at Washington from never having this kind of opportunity again.
What he isn’t is Nick Saban. He’s not the program builder he is. He’s not the recruiter he is. He’s not on his level in any way. Because NOBODY IS. Even if he is fantastic…he’s still gonna not compare.
It has nothing to do with Kalen DeBoer. You start with the folks who think the risk of following Saban is worth it. He’s the top of that list.
But when your team has been otherworldly extraordinary for 15 yrs…can the fan base live with just really great?
I think the answer is gonna be No and we get to watch.

He was their 5th or 6th choice after Lanning, Sark, Norvell , Dabo, Demeco and didn't even offer Kiffin.
