Which I answered. I was being hyperbolic, nothing more to add. Moving on…

Bingo. And it is maddening.

Hyperbole, man. Chill. Just making a point that other programs with far less resources and pedigree have made good hires that, right now, are having much more success and playing much more like “Alabama football” than we are. You really think Cignetti would have turned down coaching at Alabama...

Pretty much echoed what I’m thinking. I don’t want to cycle through coaches just because we lose a few games, but HOW we compete matters. You just can’t keep laying eggs like today, the SECCG, and the FSU game (or OU and Vandy last year). CKD should get some time to figure it out, but 2026 will...

We just lost to a better option. It was a better season than last year, sure, but not near good enough and substantially underachieving for the talent we have. And it’s not so much the record, but the games we’re losing and how we’re losing them (and how we’re barely scraping by in others). The...

With all due respect, it was most definitely NOT a good season. Maybe for Ole Miss or Auburn or Vandy, but not for Alabama. 3 utterly humiliating losses in one season and a quarterfinal CFP loss do not equal good in my book. And scary thing it was very close to being much worse (SC, Mizzou...

Indeed we do, starting at the top. Sure looks like IU got the better hire, lol.

Yeah, it’s understandable to lose to good teams like IU. But getting embarrassed like this and like we did in the SECCG is inexcusable and unacceptable. It’s officially a pattern now. I just don’t see this working out long-term.

The king is dead. Byrne and company need to powwow and come up an exit plan, probably at the end of next season.

Same for me. Just listen to his answers during on-field interviews. No talk of adjustments or Xs and Os, just nonsense about energy, look in their eyes, etc.

I’ve tried to remain optimistic but I just don’t think CKD is going to last at Alabama. I’ve never seen an entire program identity deteriorate this fast. We play soft, stupid football. Sad really.

IU is running it down our throats and making us like it. Joyless murderball.

I called that. Game, set, match.

True. We haven’t been perfect on D but outside of that last drive we’ve done enough to at least still be in the game if the offense could do anything at all. Same song and dance game after game and I’m sick of it. CKD has to do something or he needs to move on.

I truly thought a switch had flipped for us in Norman but boy was I wrong. It is shocking to me how we continue to look so woefully unprepared and poorly coached in these big games over and over again. Grubb is just clueless. No rhythm, no setup, just pull something out of a hat and pray it works.
