Rumor I've read today is Miss Terry is not doing well (Alzheimer's/Parkinsons??).

Hate it if so.

Edit: The other rumor is that Dan Lanning is a done deal and Bama's boosters are going to shell out the 20 million dollar buyout.

I can only imagine Saban gave them notice and time to talk to people. However it would have been hard for rumors not to fly if they had already talked to someone. Unless is was only one person like Lanning and able keep the lid on it..

States offense has been painful to watch most of the second half

If I won the lottery I'd immediately drive where I needed to go and pay Keatts buyout.

Take the fundraising money and pay his buyout , can’t be more than a couple nickels for what he is worth !

I'm almost positive...as long as a certain Mobile, AL booster is still alive...Lane will not be a coach at Alabama at any capacity. I'll leave it at that.

Bama has that under a rug.

I was just told that a certain Mobile, AL booster has forgiven Lane Kiffin. Take it for what it's worth.

It must be Bill Belichick.

NCAA is basically the NFL now since NIL so... may as well.

Sounds like Washingtons coach is top candidate. The funny thing is Saban’s top OC target before the season was Grubbs, Washingtons OC who ultimately decided to stay with his head coach. Gonna be funny if he still ends up at Bama, just a different route.

Per Adam Schefter, Commanders hire 49ers AGM as new GM. Best guy available. Great first moves from Josh Harris. Sleeping Giant.

Kalen DeBoer to Alabama.

Kalen DeBoer to Alabama.

Yup.

I'm not sure about this one. He's a very good coach, but he's going to have one heck of a cultural shock.

He better hire an All-Star caliber staff with serious southern ties for recruiting.

My thoughts exactly. Living in the deep south is a BIG culture shock if you haven't lived there previously.

Kalen DeBoer to Alabama.

Not a bad hire. Not a swing for the fences hire but also low risk/high reward. He is following the legend of legends and he knows he won't get a ton of time

I honestly think this is about as swing for the fences hire as you could get. The only one greater would have been to snag Kirby which would not have made a lick of sense from his perspective.
