the silence is deafening. I'm really glad we're not hearing anything of any substance right now. I've got my own opinions about NS - I think he said what he said in the pc yesterday because the reporter wouldn't shut his piehole - but NS may have been telling the truth that he isn't coming to...

Scarbinsky on Maxed Out He said he's followed the rumors hard and has found out that an offer will be put on Saban's desk Dec 31 right after the Dolphins' last game. He said everything is too right for Saban not to consider the job seriously at Bama because 1)of the team situation with a...

I wish Bama would talk to him I think Schiano is a good coach. He's definitely got fire in his gut and loves to win and he seems to be good at making believers out of his players. Yeah, WVU beat them the other night, but I don't think it was bad coaching that caused that. That was just a...

I hope like crazy that he comes. . . But, guys, we need to keep our emotions in check right now. I'm not a pessimist by any stretch of the imagination, but I believe we're up against a whole lot more than just money and facilities. CRR and his family are seemingly very happy being home. And...

Re: Randy Ross on Max Howell right now Randy probably doesn't know of anything to say about the coaching search. I am convinced that Mal truly is keeping a very tight lip on this search. I really believe he is actually working the absolute best deal he can to land a "whale." It does sound...

Re: Mac Brown has been talking to Coach Kines Do you believe that Kines knows who the new HC for Alabama is going to be? I do. Especially if he goes to Texas and DOESN'T stay to coach our bowl game. Time will tell.

Bill Curry was on this morning and everything he said, I believe, was right on. He said Alabama's biggest problem is in their Admin. He said that whoever coaches has got to be left to do his job w/out people pulling his strings from behind the scenes. He said more, but this was right on in my...

Re: Possibility of CJK staying as DC? CJK didn't come when CMS did. He came when Price did.

Just looks to me like the barometer is pointing to Spurrier.

Re: Possibility of CJK staying as DC? If Spurrier comes, I believe Oliver will be his DC.

We've been on probation and the scholly situation really hurt. Just what the NCAA and Fat Phil wanted. We've been down, and to a great degree, we still are. I believe CMS at least kept the ship steady through the darkest times. Now, I was one who thought a change was warranted at HC. The...

Will be Spurrier.

Re: Alabama's PR is terrible I wholeheartedly agree! And, although I really think it is the right thing to do by replacing CMS, the Athl Dept did another bang up job of handling this. I agree with Scarbinsky. Miami handled their situation well! It was quick! To the point! And clean! And Coker...

He will be the OC. And here will be the interesting take on this: With him being handed the reigns on offense by CJK, we will at least be able to see how the play-calling would've been had Rader been left to do it and CMS staying out of it. But of course, we still have the same O-line. But...

I believe part of putting "feelers" out for a coach is simply contacting his agent/representative as this would be legal. The only way our search committee could talk directly to a coach is by permission from that coaches current AD.
