I might as well say what's on my mind. So here goes...
I love the message boards and I love debating and discussing Alabama and college sports with you guys. Everybody knows I make my living doing this and I am so blessed to have this opportunity and so thankful that you guys support BOL.
But, come on BOLers?!?! I have read message after message with posters adamantly stating their position on these assistants and why some should be considered and why others have NO chance of being considered and it is utterly vile to mention their names.
Come on... With all due respect. These are business hires. I've run a business for more than 15 years and at one time oversaw 300+ employees. If a group of people banded together to tell me who I should hire for my "executive team" I would literally throw up in my mouth. Saban is the CEO of the Alabama football team. He is responsible for all staff hires. He knows what he wants to do with the program and his track record is as good as it gets.
And I can tell you for a fact that many of you are totally misguided on how Saban feels about some previous staffers. I'm seeing this with more than a few of the names mentioned and it is just wrong.
It is one thing for us to discuss the merits of all the candidates and whom we believe would be most beneficial to the program, but come on with all of the matter of fact posts that "candidate X," or "candidate Y" would never be considered because of past issues is getting out of hand. Some of you guys are taking coaches that could/will be legitimate candidates to the woodshed with few facts in hand.
You can do what you want, but unless you have a direct line with Saban, I would be careful ripping into any current assistant coaches previously or currently linked to Alabama.
Just sayin ...

Lucky, I appreciate your sentiment, but at Alabama we have a history of brilliant fan suggestions. You seem to be forgetting masterpieces like the fax campaign for Mike DuBose, the uproar over losing Mike Price, and the sentiment to fire Mal Moore when Rich Rod backed out.
If you'll just back off and let the fans do what they do best, then we'll pick a great staff. I wonder if Charlie Weiss is available?

I am the insider. You are not an insider. I know the coaches. You do not know the coaches. I am rich and you are poor. Speak when you are spoken to and do not get out of line. If you understand these things, then we should all get along fine.
