It’s all over Twitter that they couldn’t get things figured out for 2024 so they’ll come to the SEC in 2025.

Bring SDH back to Bama as an on the field Defensive Assistant…coaching inside LB’s or wherever he fits best. SDH has a bright future in coaching…working for and with CNS will make his future even brighter. Pay him a great salary! Between him and the former USM DC they’ll be great additions to our staff!

I know I’m beating a dead horse, and CNS knows a whole lot more than I do. My thoughts are I wish CNS would step outside his comfort zone and look closely at Kevin Barbay who just went to MSU as quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator. I know it’s CNS legacy at stake here and not mine. But CNS needs a young and coming offensive coordinator who will be with him for 3-4 years maybe 5 at the most. I’ve watched Kevin Barbary’s offense’s for a few years and I’ve been impressed, especially how receivers get open and take so much off his quarterbacks, which opens up the running game. BAMA has the quarterbacks but all are young and unproven. They need a quarterback coach that has a hands on approach and knows the position from playing it. I’m BAMA through and through just want 3 or 4 National Championships before CNS retirement. Roll Tide Roll.

Alabama's Nate Oats and Wes Hart had their contract extensions ratified by the UA Board of Trustees on Friday.

2024 names to know offensively for the Crimson Tide 🐘

I hear all this about the NCAA and how it may affect Pruitt? But what about Tennessee?
They have thumbed their noses at the NCAA. Have not imposed any internal penalties, played in a meaningless bowl game after firing Pruitt and have gone on their merry way! Seems to me that Tennessee is not worried so maybe we should not be either.
The real winner could be Pruitt!
If Tennessee doesn’t get hammered a good law suit could come out of this! I personally don’t think that the NCAA is going to give Tennessee to much penalties. We’ll see.
ROLL TIDE ROLL!

Alabama might be adding a familiar face to its coaching staff. According to a report from ESPN, the Crimson Tide is on the verge of hiring Steve Sarkisian. While the report didn’t specify what position Sarkisian would hold at Alabama, it did state he turned down the offensive coordinator position with the Arizona Cardinals. Sarkisian served as Alabama’s offensive coordinator during the 2017 national championship game where the Crimson Tide lost 35-31 to Clemson.

Sarkisian was recently fired by the Atlanta Falcons after spending the past two seasons as offensive coordinator. He served as an offensive analyst at Alabama in 2017 before being promoted to offensive coordinator for one game after Lane Kiffin left to become the head coach at Florida Atlantic. Before that, he served as the head coach at Southern California (2014-15) and Washington (2009-13). Sarkisian also has offensive coordinator experience at Southern California (2007-08) and also spent time as the Trojans’ quarterbacks coach (2005-06 and 2001-03) as well as holding the same title for the Oakland Raiders (2004).

“He has a great track record and has done a really, really good job wherever he's been, whether it was as the coordinator at Southern Cal or as the quarterbacks coach,” Alabama head coach Nick Saban said upon appointing Sarkisian offensive coordinator in 2016. “He has a history of developing quarterbacks as well as being a very good play-caller and a well-organized, good designer of offense.”

Sarkisian would likely fill the opening at offensive coordinator left behind by Mike Locksley, who took the head coaching job at Maryland last month. Alabama also has an opening at quarterbacks coach after Dan Enos left earlier this week to become the offensive coordinator at Miami.

Alabama adds an analyst to the staff while another leaves for an NFL job.

5 mil annually + incentives.

That would rank him as the 7th highest paid coach in the country.

Yeah I am going to gripe and bitch. My donation went from $160/ticket to $500/ticket. With 4 tickets that means I go from $640/season to $2000/season. Anyone else this drastic?

For those of you that are missing watching him, he’s on ESPN right now!

?

if dom welch can play next year? i think he is a lot better than what he has played this year.

Hey my Bama bros and sisters ... just got the word from my grandson Blanton that my great granddaughter just arrived! Went to the hospital around 5 this morning and Laikyn just delivered! Heck, I remember 25 years ago when Blanton was born, and I believe I'm more excited seeing him become a dad! THANK YOU GOD! Can't wait to get up to Louisville and meet her!

The UA System Board of Trustees will meet Friday. On the agenda, is "Consideration of Employment Contracts at UA" for Nate Oats.

Alabama women’s soccer coach Wes Hart’s contract is also on the agenda.

Alabama has confirmed two PWO prospects will join the fold. Traditionally, today would be national signing day, but with weather affecting certain areas of the US and all over Alabama, primary recruits either on campus or having already signed the Tide are all but done.

That said, Alabama has had success with players that quietly waited their turn and earned a chance to compete for the Tide, Levi Wallace being one example.

Here are two names that will join the fold this summer as preferred walk-ons:


Antonio Ross - Alexandria (Ala.) - Defensive Back

Ross held offers from Liberty, Georgia State, Georgia Southern, Jacksonville State, Tulane, UAB, and Memphis.
