I read that Saban will maintain an office at their athletic building.

I don't know of any coach who would be happy with his predecessor hanging around in the shadows, especially one of Saban's stature in the minds of the fans.

If this is true, any problems Bama has this year will be squarely blamed on DeBoer, and any successes will be credited to Saban hanging around.

This is a volatile mix for the Gumps IYAM.

yes he is retaining an office there.
I just hope Schumann isn't hired as a DC over there.

I would think having the GOAT down the hall to ask for advice would be an asset.

and not worried about Schu

Go Dawgs! Enjoy the ride boys.

That's my biggest worry.

As long as he doesn't have an office on the field.

I read that his office was going to be at the stadium so maybe not the same as where the coaches are, But i really dont know if that is a different place.

Worked great for Phil Fullmers!

Yes,  Right ON!!!!!

Does anyone think Saban's gonna hang around that shithole to shadow-run the football program? I don't. That dude will be on tv and playing golf.

My sincere hope is that place turns into a gigantic, festering, oozing, clusterfock.
