He's set to leave Alabama and become the DL coach of the Browns!

Since he joined Cal's staff in 2008, Washington in 2012, then Bama in 2014 he's been a pain in the ass for us.

I wouldn't be surprised they pull in another big name or two to replace those who departed and they'll keep on recruiting as usual.

Kind of an odd move unless he was being forced out. He made $1.1 million as Alabama DC. Anyone here think he'll get anything close to that as a D-Line coach? My money is on Saban telling him to find something else.

Maybe they try to pull Jimmy Lake?

Bama recruits itself at this point.

Man, why would the browns hire him? They don't need to recruit.

They've lost a ton of coaches this year. Would be surprised

I would assume as DL coach of the browns he’s making less than half of what he made at Alabama. If he’s leaving because it sucks working for Nick Saban (totally believable) why did he stay so long in the first place only to leave after 1 year of a big payday? Why not wait around a little and look for a lateral move? It doesn’t make sense to me. I still think he was forced out.

I guess the other possibility is he committed some pretty serious NCAA violations and he’s getting out of college football before the poop hits the fan.

Someone needs to teach Myles Garrett how to properly fake injuries and fall on the football as a delay tactic.

I was hoping Alabama would sway Jimmy Lake from UW. He's a monster recruiter and even better coach. Ruth just tweeted that UW was retaining him despite the Bama courtship.
