I hate the expression JABA, especially when people use it whenever they disagree with a decision, or when things just don’t break well.
For me, I think a semi-legitimate use of JABA is targeting former assistant coaches (e.g. Fisher, Petrino, Chizik, Muschamp, Malzahn, Steele, etc). While this is somewhat expected of all schools, it’s particularly JABA when we put on the pretense of going big (forming a search committee, hiring a national search firm, publicizing a 58-point criteria plan, etc), then hire Chizik or Malzahn.
