So, people ask him to be a jerk and a cry-baby and to cheat and pay players and to be entitled?

Who hires an OC who can't do anything but devise an offense and can't deal with others on a basic level?

Will he not recruit?

I'm all for giving people 5th chances, but it seems like Saban could have hired anyone and he picks a guy who has been a complete disaster everywhere he has been. I guess that how you handle yourself doesn't matter. You'll just get another job. Nice life lesson to his players who he seems to be having problems with entitlement attitudes settling in.

You want this to be a bad hire. I get that. So do all the other fanbases. It is to be expected. But i have noticed that he gets zero credit for his OC job in 05 and 06 I think. Not a big stats guy, but saw that the offense improved while he was the OC at USC. He sucked as a head coach. Alabama did not hire him to be the head coach.

He will not be talking to the media, which is normal for a Nick Saban team. And from what I have read he will not be the recruiting cordinator.

So what part is a bad hire?
