I have no idea but it’s a decent job in the Big Ten now
Would be interesting to see DeBoer have to do it without him.probably a decent chance they promote their OC. they gave him a huge raise last year to keep him from getting poached
Is this what is known as drinking piss?
IMO, he should seek an an OC with SEC experience who's indisputably considered a top 10 OC (in terms of salary)Would be interesting to see DeBoer have to do it without him.
Let him go and hope Grubb is the Chris Petersen to DeBoer's Dan Hawkinsprobably a decent chance they promote their OC. they gave him a huge raise last year to keep him from getting poached

Sadly, yes it is. I was hoping he’d turn them down and Bama would be forced to hire Tommy Rees or Mike Locksley.Great hire for Bama.
Fisch would be my first guessWho’s on the Washington hot board?

That was my thought. Is he going to recruit well enough? DeBoer is a scheme guy, not so much a big time recruiter. He'll have to bring in some dirty, recruiting SOBs if he wants to win at the Alabama expectation level.He’ll have to bring in assistants that can recruit at a much higher level than where Washington is at right now. You can’t get away with it in the SEC if you’re outgunned every week.
Also, DeBoer is so good he made human shit stain Tom Allan look like an amazing coach. That takes talent.Sadly, yes it is. I was hoping he’d turn them down and Bama would be forced to hire Tommy Rees or Mike Locksley.
What a meteoric rise though. DeBoer was in NAIA just over a decade ago and has 3 total years of P5 coaching experience, and he just landed the biggest gig in CFB.
Then what happens if DeBoer has a couple 9-10 win seasons and gets fired? We saw how that turned out for Nebraska. Things can get ugly pretty quick.That was my thought.

A lot out there about high school recruits taking an NIL discount to go play for Saban. They won't do that for him. So Bama will have to get the NIL machine working in the right direction.
The other fascinating part of this to me is...a lot of big money guys have sat on the sideline with zero say because what are they gonna do? Go against Nick Fucking Saban? I don't think this is as turnkey as one might think. Don't get me wrong, DeBoer is a good caoch and Bama will win, but outside of his first year at Bama Saban only had 1 year where he lost more than 2 games. The Pac 12 was good this year. It still wasn't as good as the SEC.
Also, Saban has an office at the football stadium still? That's very Bill Snyder-esque. Wonder how that dynamic works. It's not at the football facility so he's not breathing down a new staff's neck but still.
