    Right there with you. I hated his Alabama teams, but I respected what he brought every game and the consistency with which he brought it. Saban was one of the few great college football coaches that adjusted over time and always seemed to be a step ahead. He complained about the changes, but he figured out how to use them to his advantage and keep winning, often to my chagrin. I have much respect for how he coached Alabama.

    Your so right. It IS a big deal. Fox News has brought it up four times in about thirty minutes !! Most All the sports networks are all over it. Bama fans sure better hope they choose the right successor as the Wrong one could have repercussions for years and years to come !! I went on the enemies web site the other night when they lost the Playoff game. SOME of them were saying then that Maybe it’s time for Nick to go. But the majority was saying Noooo !!!

    The ole saying Be Careful What You Wish For comes into play here !! Hope you have a Great & Safe 2024 !! I always enjoy your comments !! And as you were a photographer for the Dawgs you’ve seen allot of Good, Bad, and In Between in your time. You have my sincere respect !! Go Dawgs !!

    Now this begs the question will any top shelf Bama players hit the TP in April ?? Course it works both ways some players that might’ve felt Saban was about to retire might find Whoever replaces him very appealing and Go to Bama. Interesting times indeed.

    GOAT…….. always respected him and his teams. Folks speculating about why he retired? He’s 71 years old wants to enjoy his wife and family. Who in their right mind wants to still be working in their 70’s.

    Most definitely there will be starters in the portal after Saban leaves. Most recruits came there for Saban and to get to the NFL. He is gone now and they will go to others programs. Are we the beneficiary of that? I think so, with some.

    I believe they can hit it tomorrow as there is a provision if your coach changes.

    Yep. Agree. That’s my hope is Dawgs reel in some great players from there. I just kind of wonder if they hire an exciting and popular coach etc. Would the Dawgs Lose some of our players to them ? My humble opinion is we stand to Gain much more than we would be prone to Lose. Just my Hope and opinions.

    P.S. Wouldn’t it be great if Haynes left and came to UGA ??!!?? He’s a very powerful RB. Allot of the Bama fans were talking about they got away from using him far to quick in the Playoff game. Many of them feel they would have won that game if they had given him more carries. UGA recruited him hard, and as you know his Daddy played at UGA. We’ll see……

    Justice Haynes for my early B-Day gift ??!!?? Young man runs with authority just like his Daddy !! Don’t know how interested he’d be. Don’t know if Kirby/Bobo would be interested in him as they might feel the RB room is set. And the Dawgs DO already have allot of fire power there. I took the liberty of copying & pasting his 2023 Freshman Stats just in case he Were to come to UGA.

    Ooook make that I Tried to copy & paste it !! 😂 Anywho if you’d like take a look at his stats on their page. You can’t make anything out of this gibberish I posted.

    I think it will probably be Butch Jones since the way he and Nick think are identical
