I’ll just leave this right here….

😳😳😳😳

I didn’t demand anyone read my post and respond to it. It’s a message board, this topic is about Saban retiring, and I made a post about what I had heard.

I’m seeing Lanning’s name mentioned. I hope that’s not true, but as meticulous as Saban is, it wouldn’t surprise me if the coach to replace him has already been decided. I got this from a friend of mine who is a huge bama fan. I hope it’s not true: My son told me his coach who has connections down there, told him before it was announced. He says Ms Terry has been diagnosed with dementia. That’s why. She only has a few really quality years left. Now I’m not sure that’s true but that’s what his coach told him.

Finebaum is reporting it as fact. Still hard to believe.

Well, if a school has to buy out an NIL contract and offer a new NIL contract, that could be millions of dollars. They may consider it worth it for the highest profile athletes, but they can’t do that for all of them. If other schools aren’t dangling carrots then players might not be so quick to leave. NILs could also be structured to have a multi year incentive or forfeiture of a percentage of money if the athlete leaves after one or two years.

I agree 100%. There have got to be some guardrails put into place ASAP or this thing will spiral out of control quickly (if it hasn’t already). Maybe have a multi year deal in place like @GoAU suggested with an NIL buyout to whatever school they go to?

Bless him. He just can’t stay in character long enough to finish a post. So who will admit to helping to give him 31 post count likes? 👀👀

Maybe we can convince Steele to come out of retirement? 😂😂🤪

Same here and I’ve talked about it in several posts. @NCAubs The post thread titled “Once again Freeze says he had team unprepared” is one to look at for this type of discussion.

It does. Maybe we should sign our coaches up for Lane’s online course “How to Portal”?

We played Etowah my senior year. Patrick Nix was the quarterback, Toderick Malone was a receiver, and the running back/linebacker was Tyrone Nix. We took the ball to start the game and scored on the opening drive. It was all downhill from there. 😂

🤣🤣🤣🤣

So now that we know PM is gone, who do y’all want as our next OC? Freeze wanted Derrick Nix at Ole Miss previously, is he the first call Freeze makes?

Wow! I guess he was more unsafe than I realized! 😂

From what I’m hearing from a friend of mine, Montgomery isn’t exactly safe either.

I’ve seen the other reports of him being hired, but that’s the official part I was refferring to, an announcement from Auburn.

Has Kelly been officially announced? I’ve missed it if he has.
