| I have to give Mal credit, he did go outside the Bama family to pick a HC up. Who knew people that didn't play at Bama could actually coach too?? | |

I do commend him though. Going "outside the family" in Alabama isn't a popular decision. | |

Good luck to him, he'll need it. | |

| Is hiring outside the Bryant lineage even legal in Alabama? Didn't they codify such a prohibition after the Mike Price debacle? | |

| Dumb because it's a million more a year or because it is Bama? A coach with half a set of balls could have won 9 games last year, you agree? | |

| My prediction:
Year 1 - hailed as program savior, children born in 07 will be named Rich or Rod
Year 2 - some signs of cracking are overwhelmed by calls to "let him get his players in here"
Year 3 - 50/50 on he don't do it like the Bear - Auburn is starting to say "Fear the BigToe" as second hand is filling up.
Year 4 - worst hiring decision every made - Mal Moore and RR must go.
