OT: Nick Saban retiring from Alabama

[Dback Jon]

Not NFL, but basically Pro.

 

[Krangodnzr]

He was the GOAT at building a really good program.

Might mean any players on the fence will declare for draft if they haven't already.

 

[Krangodnzr]

Reportedly Dan Lanning is their top choice.

Lanning should take that job because Alabama can really compete for National Championships while Oregon can compete for Conference Championships.

Do you want to be the guy that follows a legend

 

[Lomax to Green 84]

Legend! The Bear, Gene Stallings, and Nick Saban. What a gauntlet of awesome coaches at Bama.

 

[CardsFan88]

His assistants do everything anyways, but good luck to him and his business endeavors.

They need to hire a Mike Shula for a season or 2...lol

 

[GatorAZ]

Before Saban was a title there in 2009 the Crimson Tide had won one national championship in the previous 30 years. They had a bunch of underachieving coaches before him who didn’t win much. He’s the GOAT.

No one cares about that crap anymore. This dude will rake in a fat contract and not lose any sleep over Saban expectations.

Sooner Nation approves.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Conspiracy, this is why they got the CFB nod over an undefeated top 5 team

With NIL and the 12 team playoff, it's not going to be the same college football that Saban dominated going forward. He could see the writing on the wall and picked a good time to get out with his legacy intact.

Also the transfer portal. He used to tell five stars that they sucked and wouldn’t play for three years. Now you do that and they flip to Auburn or UNC.

Pretty much anyone you’ve ever heard of is being rumored to Bama. This story is a mess

Greg Byrne is very good at distraction, so anything's possible. When he hired Rich Rod at UofA, everyone thought it was gonna be Mike Belotti until Byrne tweeted a pic of him and RichRod at his home.

Lanning could be a smokescreen, but most of the rumors point to him.

Not as good as he used to be.

Which shows how positive the portal has been. You can't have these asshats who are allowed to move around at will to other schools treat kids like dirt and have the kids with no recourse.

Fisch?

 

[Garthshort]

Could he replace his friend Bill B. at NE?
