Fire DeBoer, Hire Golding!!

Joking, but definitely ironic if Golding ends up as a better Head Coach than the HC at Bama.

Schumann is in kirbys shadow.

Kirby was once in Saban’s shadow. Lanning was in Kirby’s once too.

I dont know much about Schumann except he graduated from Alabama and has been in the Saban/Kirby-verse his entire career. If he could come back here and rebuild the standard, I’d be excited.

I really hope he didnt say this.

If he did say this, I really hope he doesnt believe it. Today was a program defining game in the worst kind of way. The only way DeBoer has a chance to succeed at Bama from here forward is if he knows there has to be massive changes to the staff and mentality of the program.

If DeBoer just rolls into this offseason like it’s any other, we will see more results like today.

Alabama would not have hired in 2021 or 2022. Additionally, Saban had his last two rosters that really could win a national championship in 2021 and 2022. There was no good time for Saban to retire and none of the problems we have in 2025 are his fault. This staff has had two years to build out their program and it is soft and sloppy but tries hard.

I was being somewhat sarcastic. It is just crazy to think of what Cignetti has done at Indiana in 2 years, and would have been amazing if we could have went from Saban to him.

Im watching skycam and loving it.

Miami and OSU should be a good game if Beck plays to the best of his abilities.

Yea Miami’s defense should give them fits. OSU could put it all together though like last year though and blownjt wide open. We’ll see.

Might be drinking some SEC kool aid. But I just dont believe that the Big 10 has surpassed the SEC like the country is now convinced of.

Michigan beat us 2 years ago, with a very senior team that was their best team of all time. Ohio State won last year, but again was a very senior team.

Obviously Ohio State is a legit program that competes legitimately with the SEC, but they are not as good as last year. And last year the SEC’s champion (UGA) was banged up and playing a very inexperienced QB when they lost to Notre Dame.

But too many in the country are rushing to dismiss the very real grind of the SEC. And nobody has been more tested than Bama. And the team is as healthy it’s been all year.

So let’s just bammer it out with some optimism the next few days and look forward to ending the Hoosier’s dream year, and laugh when the pundits have to admit that the SEC is still the SEC by this weekend.

Why does Florida keep hiring G5 coaches?

---

Because it’s worked for them before (Urban Meyer when Utah was still in a G5 conference) and it still works now if you get the right guy (see Curt Cignetti).

Nobody knows shite and there are no guarantees, so all you can do is interview someone that’s had success and make sure they seem like a good fit and hope for the best.

Richt was a great coach who had them on the verge of multiple championships and set a foundation that Kirby was able to take to the next level. And in the age of parity in the sport, I would be happy with Richt level of consistency for several years.

SECC and 1st quarter last night were frustrating as hell. But the offense finally found some mojo back last night, and a huge part of that is important playmakers getting healthier and making plays.

Had 2 weeks to heal and prep for this game. And basically 2 full weeks again for Indiana. With Ty, Germie, Jam, Hill, and Cuevas having the opportunity to rest/heal even more, this team has the chance to peak again at the right time.

Put Ryan Williams on the bench; he’s a liability at this point. Let a hopefully healthier and more confident Ty air it out to Bernard, Horton, Brooks, Cuevas and others. We beat the Hoosiers and are in it to win the whole thing as much as anybody else. RTR.
