IMO, the Kiffin hire is going to be very bad or very good. I don't see any in-between. If it is the former, he most definitely will not be around in 2016.
I don't see how it could be "bad" unless your "bad" means we don't win the NC under him.IMO, the Kiffin hire is going to be very bad or very good. I don't see any in-between. If it is the former, he most definitely will not be around in 2016.
It is not his play calling I am concerned about. The saying, "He could mess up a free meal" was penned for Lane Kiffin.I don't see how it could be "bad" unless your "bad" means we don't win the NC under him.
With the talent we've got to work with, I think I could call plays for us and we'd still win most games.
That thought ran through my head too. Here`s hoping that he`s such a great OC that he becomes Kirby Smartesque.Chances Kiffin is still a coach at Bama? 10%
Which means he stays at Bama for a while! But Kirby-esque would be great!That thought ran through my head too. Here`s hoping that he`s such a great OC that he becomes Kirby Smartesque.
I am sure someone will post but who will the barn have played in that span OOC? Didn't they cancel FSU last year (or the year before)?In Summary - in a decade of Saban being at Bama he will have played the following teams OOC - Florida State, Clemson, Virginia Tech (2 times), Penn State (2 times), Michigan, West Virginia, Wisconsin and USC.
Why would we play South Carolina in Arlington? I seriously doubt the SEC is going to neutral site games these daysalright smart guy....thanks for your input

No, that was in 1999-2000. They DID cancel it. That was because it was going to be Bowden Bowl when the games were signed, but Terry resigned in 1998. Bobby Lowder wanted nothing to do with that - I think it cost Auburn about $3 million to duck out on those two.I am sure someone will post but who will the barn have played in that span OOC?
