Something to consider about Saban and AD hire

I think Saban is very far-fetched, but let's give the benefit of the doubt and assume that there's a plan.
It actually would make a lot of sense to wait and hire an AD until, and if, you were to pull Saban. Would instantly make it a much more attractive job for candidates across the country. Saban would also probably want input into the AD hire.
Also think there's the possibility they're giving Verge the opportunity to prove himself in the big chair before rushing out to hire another candidate.

Or see who the new President and AD hires are and who/if annyone influenced them.

If Saban is in play, he’s absolutely hand-picking the AD imo

Can you imagine the melt from Bama fans if Saban is hired as head ball coach?
Please let this happen.

I trust Saban’s hiring decisions more than whoever chose the last president and AD. Let him do the whole thing.

Domestic abuse calls will break records in Alabama when that happens!

Saban recommended Houston Nutt for the LSU job when he left, lol. I do think they had the same agent though. At that time he really had no skin in the game at least in regards to LSU.

Might be a decent point. I never considered that

I imagine they’d try to play it off like he’s past his prime or that’s game has changed since he’s left and he won’t be the same

God it just sounds so glorious even writing that.

They would melt. Hard. I creep on their On3 board and 90% said they would lose all respect to Saban and feel backstabbed

Saban said Nutt because Skip was a cheap AD and Saban knew that

Plot twist: SECCG in 2026, back to back national titles in 27-28. Saban retires and declares for the 2029 governor's election.

There is enough smoke that they have tried/are trying to hire saban.

I doubt most of them would care that much. He cemented his legacy there and nothing will take that away.

What about saban as AD
Posted on 11/3/25 at 8:50 pm to The Pirate King
It’s not happening with Saban. Forget it.
Most likely you guys will get a younger up-and-coming coach
