What the hell is a guy like him going to do in retirement? Alabama lost its playoff game, so it’s probably seen as a failing season in Bama fan’s minds.

Geaux Tigers!

Paraphrasing words from McArthur farewell speech to Congress "Great coaches never die, they just fade away".

I texted a former coworker who went to Alabama "Jimbo Fisher is available."

He got a good laugh out of that one.

A little shocked here as well, I thought he would stick around for at least one more year with the expanded playoffs. Perhaps Aflac made him a better offer.

Dabo seems to be the front running replacement from what I’ve read so far. There are better choices imo.

Go Dawgs!

Super psyched that my Wolverines notched the last W against him!

Not sure if he's considered 'Alabama' enough, but Dan Lanning wouldn't be a bad choice.
