Alabama isn't the best at hiring coaches not named Bryant or Saban. They hired 7 coaches between 1982 when Bear Bryant left until 2007 when Nick Saban was hired.
NONE of them were home run hires. Bill Curry, Gene Stallings, Ray Perkins were mediocre hires anywhere except the lower tier schools.
I'd say four of them - Dennis Francione, Mike Price, Mike Dubose, Mike Shula, were epic fails.
Their history says that they won't make a home run hire this time. I call that real. Keep your eye on this one.
