Just posing a question. But ever since November things have been consistently different over in the house that - Doug Nussmeier leaves for a lateral position as Michigan's offensive coordinator.
- He's quickly replaced by Lane Kiffin. Although that could be enough to light a fire under an offense that will replace AJ McCarron, it's hard not to focus on the fact that every stop on Kiffin's resume has turned into a raging dumpster fire.
- Weeks later, Chris Rumph leaves for a lateral position as the Longhorn's new defensive line coach.
- Defensive backs coach Greg Brown resigned last month. Then he took a spot on Louisville's new defensive staff.
- Saban was able to hold onto Kevin Steele, albeit by the skin of his teeth. Steele accepted the defensive coordinator position at Louisville before having a change of heart.
- This all follows a 2013 off season that saw Saban replace three assistants -something he consistently does very well. Just not this often.
- Ha Ha Clinton Dix sat out a game last season over an NCAA rules indescretion. There's also problems/accusations of a booster that likes to make some money off the local professional franchise.
- Not to mention football players are getting arrested (!!!!) in Tuscaloosa...and we're actually hearing about it (!!!!!!!!!).
It's a lot of mostly little things. Sure. And I certainly doubt there'll be much to come out of the booster stuff. Still. I mean, maybe it's the fact that the Tide is enduring a two game losing skid that will last at least until August 30th. But things have a different feel over yonder.
Lane Kiffin? C'mon man. I still can't get over that one.
