Jordy did say yesterday someone he spoke to said the Riley stuff was "chasing ghosts" and "not in the right ballpark "...maybe that was accurate?

If so, are you gonna hire Saban away, Scott?

What "big fish" is left?

Fickell?


Fickell or Cristobal, in his opinion

I can see Cristobal just because of the SEC lure

You consider Campbell and Cristobal as big fish? That's who he lists.

I know Jimmy. Jimmy has no reliable insider sources about this coaching search

If this is true, then we know whose sauces are shite (there’s a thread tracking it), and we also know which media follow this board as their sauce.

Interesting social experiment it turned out to be.

Jimmy Smith may be correct, my son is a key man for a guy that is a very large donor and good friends with Scott, he told me a week ago that none of these insiders knows who it is but it was not Lincoln Riley, he also said he does not know who it is but he did know it would not be LR.

This isn’t a New Orleans/bootlegger recruit

People around President Tate think it’s Aranda… now NO area high school coaches pushing for them to give Eric B. a call

Bottom line is 90% of the fan base will not be happy with this hire.

We are past the embarrassing stage. This admin is just as big a joke as the previous.

And what if it’s announced Aranda is coming? We are embarrassing? Nobody knows what happened with Riley. Nobody but Scott knows if he was even a candidate.

Riley was never coming. There was 2 phone conversations with Trace Armstrong, at most. Lincolns wife was having none of it from the get go
