I, for one, am not surprised at this news! I figured he knew his time was over when OU was officially accepted into the SEC, if he was going to go out on top. :D :D :D Just kidding of course.

Now the "Tide" can begin the age old who was their greatest coach - Nick Saban or Bear Bryant? As with Coach Bryant, I have only the best wishes for Coach Saban, in whatever he moves onto from here, unless and until he coaches again and plays OU. I wonder if he'd be open to an analyst job on the Sooner staff? :confusedplus:

The 'Bama AD is going to have a stack of applications at least 2' high in the desk. I will be curious to see how long it takes to fill the HC position.

I really would like it to be Kiffin.
A few years ago, Dabo was the heir apparent.
Will be curious to see.
