Re: Saban
Posted: Wed Jan 10, 2024 7:27 pmthis will also spur a wave of coaching changes depending on who Alabama goes for. Understand interest is for Lanning, Norvell, Sarkisian and Dabo. Hope for the ACC, it's not Dabo.

I think they should tap Sark, and then the Horns can go get Sonny.

One comment I saw mentioned Kiffin. Wonder how busy it’s going to be in the portal.

Dabo has failed to adjust to NIL and the portal. Unlikely Alabama is overly interested
despite the 2 recent natty's.
Lanning is reportedly interviewing for the position.

That would be hilarious.
The same UT fans who badmouthed the Sark hire will be crying about why he didn't want to retire in Austin.
Seems unlikely, but would be delicious.

Posted: Thu Jan 11, 2024 8:15 amDabo has a pretty sweet deal at Clemson and is probably well aware of how tough it is to replace a legend. He's still young enough to let someone else come in and fail before considering finishing his career at Bama. He's been at Clemson long enough now that it is "home" for him and his family so it won't be easy to lure him away from that place

Then Sonny could be Fatterson’s HC.

Posted: Thu Jan 11, 2024 9:17 amPretty strong Kiffan rumors flying around...he has the ego for that job.

Re: Saban
Posted: Thu Jan 11, 2024 12:58 pmHe only beat Michigan because the Wolverines were completely uninterested in that game until the 4th quarter. Play it again, with last year's rosters, and Michigan whips tcu.
Also, Lanning reportedly is staying at Oregon.

Posted: Thu Jan 11, 2024 5:14 pmSonny picked a bad year to collapse and underperform. There will be some nice openings that will not have the stomach for hiring that low class slob after this past season.

"...Lanning didn’t wait long to dispel rumors he’d be packing his bags and leaving Eugene. The coach took to his personal X (formerly Twitter) account Thursday morning to announce his commitment to Oregon, saying, “The grass is not always greener. In fact, the grass is damn green in Eugene.”
