Good for him. I think he was done at Alabama honestly. The fact he made a lateral move says everything about his status at Alabama. If we had wanted to keep him we would have given him a raise, we don't allow lateral moves normally.

Exactly what I was thinking. This was a mutual thing.

I agree, the fact Saban brought in an outsider to try and spice things up before a Bowl game and his leaving for a lateral move position says alot. If Saban had wanted him to stay, he would have spoken to the AD and got the money approved. Saban is a master at finding the next big thing and evaluating talent, so he probably already has a name in mind and a call will be made directly.

A lot of people wanted him gone anyway, and I wouldn't have a problem with the Kiffin hire.

Not a big fan of a possible Kiffin hire. Dont know why but I hate the little rat bastard, although it wouldnt be bad looking at the piece of ass(his wife) he would bring with him.

As long as he doesn't get us in trouble I think the idea of him being at Bama would grow on me. He's a good recruiter and a good OC. Not to mention he can develop QBs

I would be downright shocked if Lane Kiffin came to Alabama as an OC.

I personally don't want him either. I don't think he's very good for morale right off. Just look at how his team was at USC.

I don't think Alabama would hire him either, honestly. Even they don't want their names attached to that piece of shit.

I think Kiffin needs some Alabama and Saban, so he should pay us.

The thought of Lame on our sidelines made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.

Supposedly, him and Saban are friends and it is hard to find underlings that have the HCing experience at the NFL and college level that Kiffin does. I'd give this about a 35% chance of happening. --- He would be like Bill Belichek's Josh McDaniels.

I wish him well if that's true. I have to admit he handled a very difficult ending with a great more deal of grace than most could have.

Would be smart for Lane, as Alabama assistants aren't allowed to speak to the press and he won't be able to make an ass of himself.

LOL

I know he's a jackass when he publicly speaks, but the man can recruit and is a pretty darn good OC... Just a terrible head coach...

That's where I'm at with the whole thing. Speaking from my personal dislike of the guy, I'd rather look elsewhere. Although, I wouldn't be all that upset if he indeed ended up being Bama's OC considering the way Saban runs shit. He has as good a chance as anybody to keep Kiffin in check.
