What if it’s not Rees. What if it’s another position coach. It will be fine

It's definitely a weird situation. If we were promoting Sloan, they would have done it by now.

I could easily see him hiring Rees. Both him and Saban has said that Rees is some kind of savant. I'd be fine with it, but my only question is would Sloan stay on under him or move on?

We lose Sloan and there's a 50/50 shot we lose Underwood in the coming months. Does Kelly want to risk that?

What?
He molded the Bama offense to what they had - and they were pretty freakin’ successful at it.

100% take if available.

So why not check out of a QB draw when you don’t have the numbers?

Ensminger and Brady did this many times.

I'd bet on a coach with a contract over the kid with NILs and the portal.

That’d be a slap in the face to Sloan.

I figured it was logical to promote Sloan since essentially it’s Kelly’s offense and you just need someone to run it.

Guarantee the people saying Sloan has a better resume than Rees are the ones who also thought Coach O was a great hire

We do not want Sloan. This may sound crazy but he has been around longer and that is great and all but when you have been around defensive coaches start to be able to gameplan you better.

Don’t think much about Rees, but he’s resume is much better than Sloans.

Bring Rees in for an analyst roll, and milk all the Alabama secrets from him. That’s what Saban did with all those former coaches

Just bring him in as the QBs coach and keep Sloan as the OC

We don’t know the conversations Kelly and Sloan have already had about the situation. We don’t know what Sloan wants.

I'm hoping Rees is Alabama's next HC

If it’s Rees, then you have to believe Rees knew about this for awhile and told Kelly to hold off on the hire until now. We’ll next week when he’s sure the new coach won’t keep him.
