I was just thinking about him the other day. Did he really quit the board (quit being a Bama fan??) when Paul Johnson wasn’t hired and Saban was? If so, respect for sticking to your principles… I guess? 
OC and DC replacement discussion

Reliable sources concluded that dabaxter was a pseudonym used by Paul Johnson.I was just thinking about him the other day. Did he really quit the board (quit being a Bama fan??) when Paul Johnson wasn’t hired and Saban was? If so, respect for sticking to your principles… I guess?
He's the only one we know of who's actually been interviewed. And I can't imagine he takes the interview if it's not serious.
Not that I would want CPJ, but to the second part of that, through a tin horn comes to mind.Let’s see how many have been around TF for while???
Dabaxter put in his request for Paul Johnson to be considered for OC. Could you imagine the running game when the triple option meets with 5-star talent?
I hope it is just internet trash, but I hope our defensive co search hasn't reached a point that Todd Grantham is a realistic option.
I wonder if Ryan Grubb's wife and daughter came with him to T'town for the visit/interview. If she did, and she likes the town/schools/atmosphere, etc, then I bet he accepts the job if offered. Not sure how many other interviews Coach Saban has planned though.
I googled Grubb's name and read that his wife got her Doctorate in education a year or two ago. I think their daughter is young, maybe 4-5 years old. I am sure UA could find his wife a job if she wanted to work at the university. Hopefully, we fans will hear something in the next few days or by end of the week. RTR!
Lol, he’s not
There are 2 million reasons (not even related to money) someone would want to move their family away from that area…..especially when they have a young daughter or son.
He's one reason I said hired "from another college."Sark was hired in January from Atlanta. We still have a day.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves just yet. For those who were around in December of 2006, we thought we had Rich Rodriguez as our next HC. He commits, goes back to Morgantown and un-accepts the opportunity of a lifetime. Rumor back then was Rita Rodriguez did not want to move to Tuscaloosa because the heat and humidity of T-Town played hell with her bouffant hair do, even though many on here offered to provide her with a lifetime supply of her favorite hair spay. IDK if this was a Tidefans rumor or not, but my point, could this be a repeat if Grubb's wife hair style is adversely affected by T-Town's climate? IDK, just something to be aware of.
From everything I've read we don't expect to sign anyone tomorrow. Why not go ahead and announce the new DC and OC if they have been hired?
Coach always has a plan...maybe to steal some thunder from other folks that grab a headline on NSD?
If Grubb is announced and DC is still in the wind, the more I think it’s Pruitt and Saban and the university are still “fighting” with the NCAA to get him cleared.
Those would be what? Did something just go over my head because I really do not know what you are insinuating?
I think he alluding to things that are more commonly discussed on the nonsports board. As I am sure you are aware the politics and culture of the Pacific Northwest are a little different than Alabama, but that should be the beauty of federalism.
If it were to end up being Grubb as OC one would think we'd still rely very much on a passing offense as opposed to being more balanced like some have suggested, so I'd think that would favor Simpson over Milroe at QB since I believe Simpson is the better pure passer of the two.
Well Washington Football Twitter takes a jab at Grubb. They must think he has one foot out the door.
I like Grubb.
He is from Iowa originally. That is a different culture from the northwest area.

That's not a good look for Washington. If I am Grubb, this helps with my decision more than hindering it.
