With Thompson and Steele leaving, who are some possible replacements? Big names or lesser known?

This off-season just keeps getting stranger and stranger.  Two coaches that had worked at Bama at least two different times are gone yet again.

The last time Thompson and Steele left we did just fine. The proof is in the trophy case.

I am not surprised at any of the changes at all so far, when it's broken and doesn't work you got to fix it. ;)

True that.  And look what happened at TN and Clemson when they had those guys.

Great recruiters, but can they coach?   ???

Word is he was "asked" to leave, so I sure can't fault him. It's a business & he needed a job.

IF he was asked to leave then it is obvious that he wasn't doing his job that they hired him to do.  Addios!  Don't let the door hitcha where the Good Lord splitcha!

So-so coach but heck of a recruiter.

Quote
The big question is will Tide defensive coordinator Kirby Smart stay coaching secondary or will he move back to linebackers. Once they figure that part out, they can go for their target coaches. Saban will more than likely hire the best coach that he can find and then make the changes as needed.
One interesting note was that offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin and ‘Bama intern Tosh Lupoi were reportedly spotted together at the Birmingham Airport last night. Interns aren’t allowed to recruit off-campus so with Lupoi being with him and the dead period ending, that could be one of the hints on what will happen. No official announcement has been made from the school.
There are also a few rumblings that these two coaches may not be the only ones to leave. We will just have to see how it all ends up shaking out.

It sounds like he was pushed out, and then maybe decided the best way to get even would be to go to the barn.  Or maybe the barn was his best offer.  :dunno:
