Anyone. Crazy thought here, but, do you think it's possible Coach Saban could hire Coach Dooley as an assistant?

Anything is possible. A spot would have to open up obviously, but Saban holds Dooley in high reguard and it would not surprise me.

There has been a lot made of the defensive issues against aTm and LSU. Some seem to be buying into the idea that we are vulnerable and have some issues on that side of the ball. Going into the SECCG, do you feel we have some things we need to clean up on defense or should we not look too much into those games? What's the feeling among the staff here on BOL?

I think a lot of people forget that there's seven new starters, and the defense had so many guys get drafted. The defense is pretty darn good, it just doesn't have the same experience as last year's D.
That Alabama could play some pro-style offenses really works to Alabama's advantage.

Happy Thanksgiving guys, whom do we believe to be next 2014 commi.

Roc Thomas and Roderick Taylor are two possibilities, but like Tim noted, UA takes it one class at at time and like this class, I think you'll see the next flurry of 2014 commits on the junior days starting January.

Lucky: Where were you last Saturday night (hmmmm Sunday morning at 2:30am)?
If you dreamed you were a sleep and you woke up, would you be awake?

Chris
Where would you rank this years defense in comparison with others in Saban UA era?
2011 was best IMO.

That's kind of one of the offseason things that I like to do, and really crunch the numbers, but I'm with you that 2011 was the best. This year's is up there, but that defense last year is going to be tough to top.

CW: Who do you think might have a breakout game in this week's Iron Bowl?

Great question, because that always seems to happen doesn't it?
How about this: Whichever receiver is the least injured.

I think you got it right with Howard- he would be my best bet. There are still spots out there but a few names that pop out would be Allen, DB's (depending on how they finish at CB), a few RB's given the rotation, and then Tunsil (should he pick UA) and Grant Hill could potentially step in the second year.

Leon Brown should have a very good shot at right tackle. Saban has a good track record of bringing JUCO guys that contribute immediately.
