    Vrabel, I don't think he wants to coach CFB. And I do know the Pats job is now open.
    Yeah, they need a college football guy.

    • I think they'll have someone w/in 48 hours and I think it'll be Lanning.

      I don't think UAT just learned of The Nick's retirement.

      I think Sarkisian is probably the guy they wanted, and that was in place to happen, but once he got the Texas job you can't really turn that down. Especially in the new world of unrestricted NIL.

        Why? They're pretty much an NFL team already.

        • With The Nick leaving, that re-opens UAT's transfer window for 30 days. They need someone in place almost immediately to fend off the vultures. And window doesn't open until it's announced. So, based on purely on rational decision-making analysis, The Nick had to inform UAT awhile ago, gave them a headstart, they have whittled things down and there shouldn't be much of purgatory gap.

          That's the only way to do it. And if I've learned anything over the past 20 years, it's that UAT is ruthlessly rational in decision-making that best serves the interests of its football program.

            Yep. When I told my son, an Auburn student, that Alabama had hired the Michigan LB coach that was fired prior to the playoffs, he laughed and said, "that is the most Alabama football move that he had seen this year" Ha!

            BTW, have they fired him yet?

            • I glanced at a Vegas odds list for the next Alabama head coach. Pat Shurmur and Derek Dooley are near the top. WTF?! 😂

              Yeah, Dan Lanning is leading the charge at this moment. We shall see if that comes true…

              Also heard that Vrabel hates recruiting. If true, an illogical fit for college football.

              • This is like Jesus dying on the cross to Bammer fans...there is no replacement. Who you gonna get? John The Baptist? Peter? HARBAUGH*******?

                Get real.

                • I guess Dan Lanning is keeping his word. Good for him.

                  This Alabama situation is getting interesting…

                        • A nail in the coffin with the Tweet from Dan Lanning himself below…

                          Sark was also mentioned as a candidate. Well. Quinn Ewers just announced that he is staying a Texas. One would think that Ewers asked Sark if he’s staying before announcing the news … so eliminate Sark from the list.

                          • I'll be surprised if Vrabel goes anywhere BUT the Patriots. That path was cleared today when Belichick left the room. And he'd be a great choice for them. Stupid move by Tennessee. Even Michigan alum Taylor Lewan said it was a dumb move, and he loved playing for Vrabel.

                            I'll take Lanning at his word for now, but if the next Bama coach does a face plant, I think he'd likely be at the top of the list for Plan B.

                            Here's a name that hasn't come up yet: Kyle Whittingham. Tough nosed guy, a bit on the older side, but has made a tough football team out of the Utes. Recruits well to a tough team to recruit for. Just a name I thought I'd throw out there.

                            Lane Kiffen must be kicking himself today. He really wanted to be Nick's successor.

                            Dabo's name keeps coming up, but I agree there's problems with him.

                            I think DeBoer is solid at UDub.... and that's not good for the B1G.

                            Any 'surprise' names out there?
