Well, he is 0-2 in his last two games.

 

[Grand Vol]

Some of them yes, agree with. Others...WTF are they thinking?

Bobby Petrino just got the Louisville job, how exactly is he on the hot seat already?

Never know when he will pull that motorcycle back out.

Does Louisville have a volleyball team?

 

[VolinWayne]

Any article with ole Nicky listed on a hot seat just lost any credebility they may have had in my book. That being said I look forward to the day when this is true! Hopefully that will be the result of him getting Butch-slapped 3 years in a row.

 

[bamawriter]

I guess they're in need of hits.

 

[SDV]

I truly think that Saban's time at Bama has peaked. Not saying he won't win or be successful, but his dynasty of multiple titles is over. The hiring of Kiffin will especially prove to be a fatal decision.

 

[gunner]

Well, he is 0-2 in his last two games.

And he hired Kiffin as his OC, that is another loss!

 

[InVOLuntary]

And he hired Kiffin as his OC, that is another loss!

That's enough to put him on the hot seat right there!

I agree with you. Some members of the conference are beginning to catch up and the SEC is becoming more balanced as each season passes. Their dominance is similar to the one UF experienced at the height of Spurrier's tenure at Florida.

 

[perico]

That site isn't in need of hits. I've had a relationship with them since 2007, and this one is personal. They hate Kiffin with a passion.

 

[Doyle Hargraves]

Meh.
I can't take that list seriously.
Bama will just poison or shoot him when they are through with him.

 

[LA Vol]

Yep. Wonder if he will fail or bail?

 

[Kurtastrophe]

Only Vanderbilt would be arrogant enough to fire Saban.

 

[Bluetic]

Saban has been very open about his desire to completely revamp the offense. With Kiffin doing for him, its bound to backfire. A few incomplete deep balls on 3rd and inches, a few timely interceptions, or just some "we are not on the same page" penalties, and the tide could lose a few games this year. All the patience in Alabama would only half fill a shot glass. All this is without pointing out that Kiffin cant be breathing if he aint cheating. Hotseat? No...but it might not be as far fetched as you think. He actually took heat from the fan base after the AU fiasco. It only stopped because the rumors resurfaced about Saban going to Texas.

...And Bammers

It's bound to, huh? It simply has no chance of being successful? I wish someone would have told Saban that.

A few incomplete deep balls on 3rd and inches, a few timely interceptions, or just some "we are not on the same page" penalties, and the tide could lose a few games this year.

So it would be almost exactly like the '13 offense under Nussmeier?

Hotseat? No...but it might not be as far fetched as you think.

It's every bit as far fetched as I think.

He actually took heat from the fan base after the AU fiasco.

No more than most coaches get after giant losses to their rivals. That might equal the hot seat if the butthurt fans were actually in charge of the head coach's employment.

It only stopped because the rumors resurfaced about Saban going to Texas.

How was this year different than every previous season when Saban was rumored to _________________?

Same record vs. Gus also.

agreed.

 

[ajvol01]

2009, 2011 don't count? 2-2

 

[Grand Vol]

Simple question here...

Would you have hired Kiffin?

 

[TrueOrange]

Never know when he will pull that motorcycle back out.

More like never know when he'll just up and say "see ya."
