Gotta wonder if Hugh freeze is the call here. I would think they wouldn't have pushed so hard on the Pruitt situation if they didn't have a coach lined up.

Let's be honest...they don't care that Pruitt cheated...they care that he went 3-7.

Hugh would be dumb to take that dumpster fire of a job. The fan base expectations are SEC champs when they’re 4-6th in the East

How Saban reloads his staff is incredible to watch...

He was fairly successful at Syracuse and wasn't terrible in Buffalo. I see him getting another HC job in the next 3 years or so.

It's somewhere between a laboratory, sabbatical and fellowship for transient coaches. Come to Bama for a year or two where you have unlimited time and resources to work on your craft before moving on to a new gig. It works for Saban, it works for the coaches and it works for developing the players for the NFL, all while winning like crazy.

I'm curious to see what happens when Saban retires. Obviously they most likely will not see the success they have seen with Saban, but they have the resources and history to pretty much hire anyone they want, but how much of a drop of (if any) will we see? Where do they look for a coach? It's crazy the amount of success Bama has seen with Saban.

Feel like there has to be a 3-5 year plan for Saban to retire. Bring in HC in waiting before he retires for a more seamless transition.

The irony of all the reclamation projects is there will legitimately be 10-15 replacements for Saban with ties to Saban. And the AD and boosters (notice I didn't include university president) will have to pick the correct one. And if they pick wrong, it will be easy pickin's to suggest they should have picked a different candidate.

But yeah, whomever they pick better have thick skin and be reeeaaalll comfortable in his boots. Because you won't out Saban the Saban and you won't replicate his success. You hope to just have some level of success.

The first call is to Dabo Swinney. Born and raised in Alabama, Alabama fan from birth, played at Alabama, assistant coach at Alabama, wife is from Alabama and went to Alabama, mother lives in Alabama. And he is only 51. He has a much easier job at Clemson, but you have to let him turn down the job before you pursue anyone else.

Not positive but I think Dabo makes more money then Nick Saban with much less pressure then any coach at Bama would have! Why would he leave??

Saban salary is $9.3 million and Dabo is at $8.3 million. With bonuses, Saban will earn >$10 million for 2020.
