Tracking Saban's Replacement Thread

Another hugely positive point to look at with Deboer is that our Vols beat him in 2019 as the Indiana OC in the Gator bowl.

Why are they unnecessarily tight? That’s your standard. UW’s last 4 classes are 19, 42, 89 and 24; their talent on paper isnt a juggernaut. They’re talented on the field because they’ve been developed well. Doesn’t erase the fact that they typically recruit 3-4th best in the PAC-12.

Makes you wonder if bamas recruiting will suffer because of him ultimately or if they recruit near the same level and he develops the talent sufficiently.

If he wins they’ll still come. If you’re a WR or QB you’d be foolish to not want to play in his offense. He’s fixing to put 3 WR’s in the draft that’ll help his case.

They had a better QB than Oregon or Michigan

Just see DeBoer as Drinkwitz-tier in the SEC.

Didn't show in the NC game. He was awful. Missed wide open receivers several times. 2 INT.

To me, I’d have taken Kiffin over Deboer. Just me though.

Bear, Jr. would not allow that. He hates Kiff.

This is the best hire Bama could have made. This guy has won everywhere he's been. Ughhhh.

"This guy has won everywhere he's been" is usually the kiss of death for an introductory tour as a HC of an SEC program. Time will tell however IMO the odds of him being there in 5 years is 60-40 without him presiding over a single practice yet.

my thought as well... I bet it opens after this coming season

+ 1

I think someone should teach Nick Saban how sing and perform the cup song.

When I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone

You're gonna miss me by my hair
You're gonna miss me everywhere, oh
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
