Kalen DeBoer (HC-Alabama, Husky Harsin)

Maybe it’s because we’ll have to deal with him, but I wish I shared your optimism that he’ll be a massive failure at Bama.

I see the logic behind it and it makes sense. But I am not totally certain that he’ll fall on his face.

He absolutely won’t live up to Saban, but he might be dangerous still.

Yes, probably a good comparison. Day is known for his offensive acumen and has won a lot of games. But he’s lost some key games and is not up to Urban’s standard. Yet most programs would kill for the results he’s had in Columbus. I see Deboer at worst having a track record like that.

The key is who will he hire as a DC and how will he recruit. I think Bama has the resources to recruit well off name and their AD is all in on football. Will be a drop from Saban, but how much?

I'm thinking more Kiffen. Perpually 9-3 can't seem to get over the hump.
