That was on their AD Steve Sloan both were gone after year 3And yet they hired Bill Curry from GT.

No. Not going to happen. There was a time when Dabo was the front runner to replace Saban, but that time has passed. Besides, he has a legitimate culture of his own making at Clemson. No, the inside scoop is that the front runner to replace Saban when the time comes is Lane Kiffin. He's still well-liked at Alabama and ran an exciting brand of offense ... which is the game now.Saban is 70 years old. Dabo played and coached at Alabama not to mention he was raised in Alabama too. If Saban can win one more National Championship he might hang it up. Alabama would go after Dabo.
Alabama pursued Curry at the behest of Joab Thomas, the university president at the time. He wanted to change the image of the school away from football as its brand. Bad idea.And yet they hired Bill Curry from GT.
So he could be a possible gt candidate if we don't improve by more than 33%.LOL. Bama donors are not hiring the coach from UAB. Similar to LSU and Napier. They'd consider it beneath them.
Saban is a power freak and part time bully. He'll wind up leaving Bama feet first. No way he walks off from the power he has there.
There is no way in hell that the next coach of the University of Alabama is coming from UAB. It doesn't matter how good of a coach he is.I do agree that I think they’ll go after Dabo first, however I doubt he’d go for it. I think the next Alabama coach post-Saban will be Bill Clark from UAB. Has openly said he doesn’t want to leave the state of Alabama and is a phenomenal coach.
I get it. I know why you say that. But the dude took a program that literally disbanded and took them to three straight conference champ games. And people in Alabama love Bill Clark.LOL. Bama donors are not hiring the coach from UAB. Similar to LSU and Napier. They'd consider it beneath them.
They're not "my" mutts. I was pulling for Alabama. I hate UGA almost as much as I hate Notre Dame.He sure bullied the heck out of your mutts last Saturday. For that he has my undying gratitude.
This is now being reported as official. Supposedly $8M/yr plus significant investment in football facilities.Heard Miami is trying to hire D-Rad and Cristobal.
People in Alabama (and I'm one of them) don't even know who Bill Clark is. UAB? It's a medical school. No one gives a hoot about it.I get it. I know why you say that.

Mistake to follow a legendary coach and I don't care how good you are.I do agree that I think they’ll go after Dabo first, however I doubt he’d go for it. I think the next Alabama coach post-Saban will be Bill Clark from UAB. Has openly said he doesn’t want to leave the state of Alabama and is a phenomenal coach.
If I was Dabo i'd go there in a heartbeat.
Agree. He will get a statue at Clemson. Fired at Bama. The next coach at Bama will not last 5 years.Mistake to follow a legendary coach and I don't care how good you are.
Fair point!Agree. He will get a statue at Clemson. Fired at Bama. The next coach at Bama will not last 5 years.
Unless the Venables replacement fails.If Dabo doesn't get good assistant coaches & fails to make the CFP for a few years....Agree. He will get a statue at Clemson. Fired at Bama. The next coach at Bama will not last 5 years.
Nah. He is in good health. Nowhere close to retirement. What would he or Bellechick do with themselves.Saban is 70 years old. Dabo played and coached at Alabama not to mention he was raised in Alabama too. If Saban can win one more National Championship he might hang it up. Alabama would go after Dabo.
Shopping for a DC--or just visiting the Raiders for "fun"? Something could be brewing at Clemson. INTERESTING!
