Statement from Coach DeBoer, per 247Sports:

Statement from Kalen DeBoer: "I have always had an incredible respect for Alabama football and its commitment to excellence. The tradition-rich history of this program is unmatched across the landscape of college athletics, and I look forward to continuing that moving forward. Following Coach Saban is an honor. He has been the standard for college football, and his success is unprecedented. I would not have left Washington for just any school. The chance to lead the football program at The University of Alabama is the opportunity of a lifetime. My family and I feel truly blessed and look forward to becoming a part of the Tuscaloosa community. I want to thank Director of Athletics Greg Byrne, President Stuart R. Bell, Chancellor Finis St. John and The University of Alabama System Board of Trustees for their belief in me to lead this program."

Statements from Coach DeBoer, Greg Byrne and UA President Stuart Bell.

Great statement. This is a winner's perspective on following a legend, rather than shrinking from it.

Wish he would have finished it with a "Roll Tide" but it's great nonetheless.
