    A reliable source stated this 2 weeks ago. "Coach Saban will take over operations at Miami and Mike Riley will take his place at LSU. If this is true, all is not bad for LSU. I mean he did outcoach Saban AT LSU.

    We would be just a stepping stone for bama. I don't know about all of you, but I am getting freaking tired of being a stepping stone.

    We can find much better then Riley.

    Like the man but don't see him as a great coach.

    You do know he turned Bama down.

    Twice.

    (Technically, Alabama hired Shula because Riley wanted to wait on an offer from UCLA, but he knew what Alabama's timeline was and ignored it, so it was a de facto turn down.)

    Well, apparently he has interviewed. What do you all know about this guy? Not saying he will be the coach I would just like to see some more info about him

    I think he has a losing record as a college coach and a losing record as an NFL coach. I think you should set your sights a little higher.

    Didn't say I wanted him. Only said he had been interviewed.
