What is this crap? I got news for you this guy is the best coach they could have possibly hired!
I never said he was a horrible coach, but the hiring of him has a lot of Alabama fans very concerned for a number of reasons.
* 64% of his wins came when he was a NAIA HC
* he's only been a D1 HC for four years
* he's a West coach guy, never coached in south
* he comes from a passing conference/no defense
* Washington had the 96th ranked defense nationally
* has no ties to the SEC
* never recruited in the south
* he's only won 1 conference title as a D1 HC and that was this year in the Pac-12
* he finished 5th in Mountain West as Fresno HC
Judging from those stats, I completely understand why many Alabama fans are very concerned about the hire!

If I was an alabama fan, I’d be more concerned with WHY Saban left than anything else
Saban didn’t get tired of coaching; he knows that the landscape does not favor towns like Tuscaloosa. He knows that coaching there is not going to produce the fruit that he demands.
Hate to say it but the same can be said about Baton Rouge. Heck, lots of sec schools in relatively small areas are going to feel hamstrung by the NIL/portal noose.
