Byrne may regret saying that they would have a new coach announcement with 72 hours.

I wonder if they've reached out to Demeco Ryans already too. Doubt he'd leave but it'd be a lot more money at Bama, his alma mater.

Well he’s directly related to Bill Byrne, isn’t he? I think he’s Bill’s son? So I completely expect him to screw this up. Probably not to the extent that Bjork did, but it might still get ugly.

The issue is the rush…and all the speculation. It’s not clown show like aggie but Saban did them no favors there. Whether or not he was deciding until the last minute he left them holding the bag 💰 which is ironic. Just say we will have the HC announcement Monday. Oh well. Crazy. Jimmy Sexton working deals like a mofo.

Probably their first call. It would’ve been mine.

Damn, I don’t really follow NFL coaches salaries but my first impression was this had to be wrong. Nope. He just signed a 6 year deal worth $28M. 

It’s a huge range from the highest paid NFL coaches to the lowest. 

It is not a shit show YET.  If Dollar Bill Jr. bungles this hire I will be making s'mores and enjoying the flying poo.

Lot of mid coaches getting raises they don’t deserve because of saban

Same thing happened the last time Texas needed a baseball head coach.

 

Every big time college baseball coach got a huge raise to stay put.

There will be no announcement until Sexton has gotten as many of his clients raises as possible.

DeBoer to the Seahawks seems like a better fit for him -- if Seattle wants him.

This is how these things go in nearly every case. I don't care what job is open. Brian Kelly leaving Notre Dame to take the LSU job is not the norm. It is exceedingly rare that a program gets its #1 or even #2 target. Usually, you get down to like #5 or lower on your list. Sometimes it works out. Sometimes it doesn't.

Yeah for some reason college tends to pay coaches more than NFL. I think Dan Campbell has similar to Ryans and he turned down his alma mater ATM. I think a lot of guys just want to be in the big leagues and don't want to deal with recruiting, so are willing to take less to be there. Can't blame them.

Agree. Not that there's a lot of work life balance in the coaching profession, but at least there's a modicum of it in the pros.

Not to mention, recruiting sorta seems like it would suck. A lot of people wouldn't enjoy spending hours per day traveling to podunk towns and sucking up to high schoolers.

Then schools should just put their #1 target down as their #5 target.

And none of them deserve a raise more than this guy:

Not sure why this myth persists but several NFL coaches make more than Saban and the idea that the NFL is an "easier" gig is also a myth. It's a workaholic league.

Honestly, college coaches deserve more.  They are the coach, the GM, have to kiss boosters' asses, have to kiss players' asses, have to kiss players' parents' asses, have to keep kids in class/eligible and now they have to recruit their entire roster every single year.  365 days a year they do this.

NFL coaches just coach and weigh in on personnel decisions.  That's it.

"So, any of you guys want the job?"

I'd agree they require different skill sets, but yeah...NFL much tougher than CFB. Fucking Jimbo won in CFB

Hold the phone, the Detroit Pistons' coach is making $13M/year???!?!!   Didn't I see that they just lost something like 30 in a row?

Sir have you already forgotten about the time when the Fightin Texas Aggies stole a championship coach from Florida State?

If I was in the coaching profession his agent would be my agent.

The NFL is paying their GM and entire roster too. And NFL coaches get an actual offseason. A little different.

I'm gonna love it if it is Mike Stoops and he proceeds to go 10-0 vs. aggy.

Unless you are aggy, then you ALWAYS get your first choice.

Applies to croots, too.

ESPN reporting DeBoer negotiating with Bama now.
ea3ce14e7030a6d3474ca347b0511799.png

Next years motto for Alabama:  all cousins, no teef

His recruiting will pick up by proximity and reputation, but they’ll definitely take a step back from what they’ve been doing the past 20 years

I cannot wait to see what he does once Saban's players leave/transfer out. Even with the Alabama brand, he's going to have to put in as much if not more work at Bama to attract/keep a high level of talent. I think the Huskies may find they dodged a bullet at over 9MM a year as time goes on and they settle in a middling Big 10 team.

My theory is that Seattle/the PNW is a well known gestation area for serial killers. Doboer has spent several years now murdering vagrants and call girls on the side. Now he has an opportunity to head to new hunting grounds, where the hotter temps help bodies decompose quicker.
