I was just going to post

"Lest we forget, Alabama hired Mike Price"
 
But the UGA wagon is full. Go pull for Michigan or some shit like that you lane ass, retarded ex Gaytor, current Bama “fans”

Nope, opens for 30 days after a HC leaves.

Listening to what is going on it seems that while they have 30 days, they wouldn't be able to enroll at most places because classes have started, drop/add is in a few days. Kind of a shitty thing to do, but seems by design. That would mean that someone leaving would have to sit out a semester and miss Spring ball.

All that said, I wonder how many people will want to leave. The system is still there and they will bring in a good coach who will have more talent than anyone else.

I am going:

1. Make Lanning say no.
2. Schuman from UGA
3. If you have to have a HC, Kiffin.

Odd. Why close it at all then.

How is that remotely odd? If a coach leaves, let the kids decide if they want to stay for the new coach that comes in.

I’m saying just leave it open then

The coaches said no fucking way. They don't have the time to constantly re-recruit their players, and decide who goes where. Those that transfer want a period of time so that the teams can make a decision based on who is in the pool.

Wasn't he only at Fresno a few short years as well? I mean I wouldn't blame him for taking one of the top 2-3 jobs in the country if it's something he's dreamed about. There aren't many of those jobs around. The recruiting advantage he gets day 1 would be unreal. Look at where he took this roster in 2 short years? You think he could rule the sport for a while from a classic power blue blood school?

I'm not going to feel at ease until he signs an updated contract.

I think he only had a base salary of like 4.3 million or something this year? Harbs was at 8m. Again, before bonuses. They need to get him up to that 8-9m range with some stupid level of buyout to feel good about it.

I wouldn’t blame him either. And yes it was a short stay at Fresno. They just need to get that deal done. 4 million isn’t going to get it done anymore, especially with the conference change. Seeing some people point out, it’s been reported that the deal is ready, and possibly a concern it hasn’t been signed.

But also, the dude just got back from Houston yesterday and I doubt he’s personally put much effort into contract negotiations the past few weeks. Maybe give him a day or two to relax for a minute… hopefully that and not the other things you can read into.

They need to make decisions quickly. The faster they find a replacement, the less likely they have a mass exodus.

On the flip side, hope DeBoer is taking a close look at that roster. :drool:

I don't get DeBoer ... they are going to get someone who has recruited the south. Preferably someone that is from the Saban/Smart tree.
 
In all seriousness, even though it wasn't my team, it's always cool to watch greatness and what Saban did was just that.
 
I am just going to God Bless whomever replaces Saban. What a shit job that will be. That guy will have a 3-5 year life span there
