@Brooksie Not that I thought you were wrong or stretching it but I checked into it and you are absolutely right:
Whenever there's a head-coaching change — a firing, retirement, or if a head coach leaves for another job — players at that school get a 30-day window to freely enter the transfer portal."1 hour ago

You are so right, Goff succeeded Dooley and it took a long time to get over that. Goff was a good guy but a terrible head coach.
Replacing Saban won’t be easy. I would go hard after Dan Lanning. He’s a heck of a coach and a very good recruiter. Don’t know how good Dan would be in Aflac commercials though.
Saban was good but Bear Bryant was the GOAT. That being said he will be hard to replace both for Alabama and the SEC.
Lane Kiffin = new Bama head coach.
Here’s a poll from a Bama site. They all said No Way Kirby leaves UGA as it’s his alms mater so he’s on there but no votes:
Got to hand it to Saba to **** the wind out of Michigan’s championship celebration. After this news, no one will remember that UM won anything this week.
Oh goodness yes !! Goff loved UGA and was a great person and really a DGD. Terrible HC though. Those were terrible times to be a Dawgs fan. Getting spanked by GT, KY and even Vandy !! Bad !! 😥
SEC Refs will miss Saban. 😂 But probably not I’m sure Bama will keep his legacy alive some how. Guess he’ll join Spurrier on the golf course now !!
Wow !!! I hadn’t thought about it like that but your right !!
Bama fans confident none of their key players will hit the TP. Also one of them wrongly thinks they have to wait until After the Spring game. Not according to what I read Thx to @Brooksie clueing me in in the first place. From what I saw they have an Immediate 30 day window from Saban announcing his retirement which he officially did today.
While it’s certainly huge news, I can’t say I’m too surprised. The officiating in the SECCG, the predetermined outcome to keep a one-loss Georgia team that would have been favored in a rematch with Alabama out of the CFP, the seeding giving Alabama a potential shot at a rematch with Texas in the title game (where Alabama almost certainly would have beaten them)… yeah, I had a hunch he was planning to hang it up. Kinda sad to see him go as I, along with so many other Georgia fans, wanted another crack at beating him, but at least we have the one natty win over him. To me there’s no question he’s the GOAT, and I hope his well-deserved retirement further opens the door for Kirby and Georgia to make a run that makes Saban’s status as GOAT up for debate, if not outright dethroned.
Wonder if any of Bama’s WRs would want to come play with Heisman candidate Carson Beck ? If they’ve got some good Defensive Linemen looking for a new home get on the same bus with the WRs and ease on over to Athens !! I bet the phone lines are burning up all over CFB world tonight !!
Don’t know if you know Roll Tide Willie, but he’s pretty broken up…
