There were some weird undertones to how all this transpired and I've been waiting for the other shoe to drop. Is this it? Does Saban make Craig Co-OC with Locksley, which will finally make him an OC if in name only?

The way he was fired with the swiftness made me think he was going to a rival. This would make sense.

Craig? You kidding right? They wouldn't hire Craig to clean Bama's uniforms.

Would coincide with the rumors I heard about his dismissal.

Not as a coach. Maybe as a recruiter.

D.Craig gives Alabama nothing. They already have recruiting advantages in Mobile and the Alabama/Florida panhandle. Alabama should go for someone with recruiting in-roads in Florida or Texas to try where they don't already have a dominant presence.

There were rumors that Craig pushed Smith to Alabama because he would end up there. It could also be that he pushed him to Alabama because he knew he wouldn't be at LSU.

From what I heard, he steered a certain wide receiver from LA to go to bama.

I think they had to do with the WR commit who flipped to Bama at the last second.

There have been rumors of this on Bama sports radio shows for two weeks, FYI.

Are yall f'ing kidding. Well that would certainly explain some of my questions.

WTF?

I have never heard of any coach doing such a thing, personally.

If the allegations are true, Craig has absolutely no class whatsoever.

If he is announced as some kind of coach for Bama' we know it won't be for his coaching or recruiting prowess. It'd be because he's a lousy backstabbing cheat.

Shoot I didn't realize they had Lockley. He can flat out recruit the mid Atlantic but couldn't coach his way out of a paper bag at UNM.
