Not sure he ever got a call. He was on the list, but DeBoer was higher on it

Didn't every LSU and other team poster say we fricked up by getting DeBoer instead of Norvell?

Oh yeah. I wonder if LSU will hire him when Kelly is fired. I mean, this guy sucks but he did beat Kelly the last 2 years

Would be an obvious improvement for them.

To be honest with you Bama could have hired me with that roster you have left I could make a good run this year.
Time will tell about him still too early give the man 3 seasons and then I will grade him.

You talking about DeBoer ? You may have missed it but DeBoer has the 2nd ranked recruiting class at On3 and 247

Absolutely not. I thought Deboer was a grand slam hire.

Perhaps they talked but DeBoer is the only coach Byrne flew out to see, and he was hired 2 days after Saban retired.

I wonder if he's gonna end up like Mullen. We lost that close game to Bama, a bunch of guys opted out, got raped in the bowl, and then it was all downhill. But FSU has a much more manageable schedule at least.

What's the point in some of these Alabama fans trying to reimagine history and tell us that Deboer wasn't the 3rd or 4th choice? Seriously, what's the point?

What part of “It’s a joke, just like this loser” did you not understand?

Not only that, but DeBoer's contract was ready and waiting and he was introduced as 'Bama's HC three days after Saban announced his retirement.

Things don't move that fast unless both parties are fully aware and the transition/terms were well in place beforehand. It's hilarious to me when anyone says "coach X turned down the 'Bama job." When did Byrne squeeze in all these rejections exactly?
