Will post when I see a link.

Don't particularly like the guy or Alabama but he's probably the best to ever do it. Built an NFL factory in Tuscaloosa. His coaching tree is huge. He had that success with having to constantly reorganizing his staff due to everyone else hiring his guys. I for one will be glad to see Alabama go in the ******* for a while.

Who will they target? Is there an obvious replacement?

At one time it was thought to be Dabo, but I’m not so sure anymore…

Looks like Lanning could be the first target:

Scary. I think that guy is really good and really young.

A couple more names from Cowherd:

Prime time. Keep it in the Aflac family

We play Oregon and don't play Bama. So I'd be OK with this.

 

[MacDiddly]

Gotta think Sarkisian, Lanning, DeBoer, or Norvell

What about Kiffin?

Who ever follows him - Good Luck.

We got any spots for some Bama transfers? They get what? a month to enter portal?

 

[LonghornInOmaha]

Dabo better start playing the NIL and transfer portal games if he thinks he's taking over Alabama.

 

[thall__]

Please let that happen.

Same.

Figured he would have died coaching. Crazy

 

[DrAlan_Grant]

He wasn't as bad as he thought he was.

 

[dinglefritz]

Figured he would have died coaching. Crazy

He finally looked old this season. I wonder if he’s having some health issue.

 

[realHuskerDrew]

Holy ****

 

[HUSKERFAN66]

Prime time. Keep it in the Aflac family

My thoughts. That would either be very scary or frickin hilarious

 

[RedCap_rivals330392]

Not a huge surprise, I think it was speculated as a possibility for a while. The bigger surprise will be IF he can stay retired.

 

[huskerfan1414]

Hope they dont get deboer i think hes really good.

It makes no difference who they hire right now. The expectations are titles or bust...those fans will turn on that coach immediately if he doesn't win the first year.

Get ready for bama drama

 

[salsa red]

Whoever comes next is going to have a hard time. Like solich but probably worse

 

[timnsun]

He should have waited until the day Harbaugh is announced as the Chargers coach, burying that story, as a final up yours to JH.

He wins by having an overwhelming talent advantage. And by playing about 2 tough non-confernce games in his 17 years at Alabama.

 

[huskerdude88]

Gotta think Dabo here. He probably wants to get out of dodge. ACC likely to struggle in the coming years and with what happened to FSU he probably knows that its time to move to one of the two big conferences.

At this point Dabo would probably be a plan B or C.

Now, I suddenly don't have a problem with Little Nicky anymore. Well done coach.

Yep, worse because of national coverage and social media.

This just will look a lot more like the post Stallings Bama.

 

[BugsAreQualityProtein]

End of an era for better or for worse.

 

[EmormousDouchebag]

Does this mean Fansville(TM) will officially adopt Michigan's colors?

 

[TripleOption67]

Wish I could find a clip of this but I remember Saban at a press conference while at Michigan St prior to playing Nebraska. A reporter asked him about Nebraska's offense being pretty straight forward. He replied, I'm paraphrasing, " There's nothing straight forward about their offense. The *** kicking they give you is straight forward but not their offense."

One of his best quotes ever
