Hart wasn't at Alabama when Saban was hired. He came the next year (and he was never their AD, so he couldn't have hired anyone anyway). Bowden was also already the coach when Hart got the AD job at FSU, so he didn't do anything there either. People who have confidence in Hart, have no basis for it. He's never hired a top football coach. Also, he got run out of his last high profile AD job (FSU). I would have thought after Dooley, fans would be less lilkely to have confidence in someone with no evidence to back it up, but it appears nothing was learned.
i actually think that Hart is tired of the leaks and has completely locked down the Department in complete silence.
I agree with keeping the whole process quiet, and tight until the ink is dry. I actually don't think that the fan base can offer ANY value, ANY opinion on this that matters so we should just shut up and wait.
I'm disturbed by how many people liked the OP.
If you want Hart fired for not getting Gruden, AT LEAST wait until you know with 100% certainty that he did not get Gruden before you start calling for him to get fired. My gosh.
