DeBoer's strength is his on-field coaching. The guy is a top 3 coach in the country. Analysts knew that before he came to Alabama. People were saying even with lesser rosters he'd beat top teams. The big question was could he get the recruiting right and feed the 4 and 5 stars into the program. THAT was the ONLY question. If Alabama stays in the top 3-5 in recruiting every year then Alabama is going to be a nightmare for everyone.
Actually we are number 1 in the SEC currently, and number 2 in the country as of today. I bet we finish in the top 5 in the country after it all shakes out. Everyone praying for our downfall will not like the recruiting status.
Looks like we’re bout to flip the best RB in the nation with the 5 stars that were getting crystal balled to get I’d be willing to bet we finish 2 or 1
The only question was the recruiting and that’s has been answered. Let’s not forget he beat Texas the team that beat us with way less talent than our 12 five star roster. He also beat Oregon twice in the same year and put 10 guys who were 3-4 star guys in the NFL just as many as we did. I think our coaching staff has been under performing for a while now since Saban’s retirement was hanging as the unknown over the program. You give this guy the most 5 star players in the country which we have this year on the roster, and give him the upgraded coaching staff along with his brilliant offensive mind and we are going to dominate some people and go a long way. The beginning might be a bit of a test like it was last year with Milroe the first few games, but the playoff has been expanded to more teams and we will make it in. By that time things will be clicking and Bama will be the team that no one wants to play.

I agree but honestly the only one that still makes me sick is Downs leaving. Bond and Downs would’ve have been even more insane with this new staff but I’m not worried at all of what we still have at Bama!
@@joshuawaddell-stewart2884 Bond was overhyped due to his Auburn catch. Great WR but other fans are acting like Alabama lost Devonta Smith in the portal. Downs is an amazing player, but he had several key mishaps throughout the season. Several against Texas was his fault. The Michigan 4th down comes to mind as well. Corum was his responsibility & he never picked him up after the back switched sides.
@@hudsonstovall8119Downs was also a freshman. Even the best of freshman players make mistakes. Downs is still a top safety in college football. Isaiah Bond isn't overhyped off one catch he was a significant piece of the passing game last year and was Alabama's true #1 WR last year because Burton is overrated. Bond is not Devonta Smith no but he is a dog.
@@Cowboymcgangbang Bond had 660 yards and 4 TDs. I said he was a great WR. 660 and 4 TDs though…. is not elite or irreplaceable by any means. For example, Bernard had 400 and 2 TDs as a depth piece behind 3 NFL WRs. Downs is absolutely a top safety in the country, but getting back two top 5 portal safeties & the rest of what Alabama got back is a pretty even trade in my opinion. In fact, I think it’s a trade I would’ve taken if told in the middle of the season last year.
@hudsonstovall8119 it's not so much the full on stats for Bond as it was the clutch moments. Like I said he isn't a Devonta but he was clutch. Definitely not a make or break guy I was just disagreeing with the overhype statement. Everything else we agree on.
People neglected to do their research on Kaken Deboer. He’s literally won at every level including HS. He’s been a winner way too long to start losing now. Coaching and preparing his team is the easiest part for him. It’s what he’s been doing for over half his life. RTR
He doesn’t have to have the success of Saban, but there is no reason he can’t be as successful or more successful than Smart. That’s what Bama fans want. Greater success than other CURRENT coaches.
Man you guys got too smart and started leaving Finebaum off the thumbnail and the viewable title so people might actually click on it. You got me this time, but I was able to hit pause at the 1 second mark. I guess I just have to block this whole channel now. Fool me once...
Yeah. Since you like numbers so much. Alabama is 2-1 against Texas since Texas last national championship 2005 2 decades ago. Meanwhile, the last 14 years, Alabama has won 6 national championships, Texas 0. Alabama has had 4 Heisman winners, Texas 0. Alabama has 9 SEC championships, Texas 2 BIG12 championships. Alabama has lost 21 games the 15 years, Texas 75 losses. Would you like more numbers? 😂😂
Speak for your self nerd 🤓 this isn't your average Coaching transition this is a ALABAMA MONOPOLY the NIL has created endless pool of 🌟 players and with our core Coaching staff I predict ALABAMA will win CHAMPIONSHIPS in football and basketball this coming season.
It won't be a bad first year for the ball coach. They may even make the playoffs and advance a round. But he won't win a natty. If he did, that would be absolutely crazy 🤪
Y’all can sunshine pump all you want your only up in the classes by how many commits you have from 3 and 4 stars not the 5 stars your accustomed to lol trust me it’s not the quality you think… once the saban recruits dry up…, your gonna see the drop off you’ve been warned… once more dominoes for other teams drop bama will drop they have 17 commits
Nah, you have been warned already with the success in recruiting right now and you are salty cause there is no drop off. Do you know how many 5 stars are projected to commit to Bama in the coming weeks not to mention the ones who are projected to flip??? Also, these recruit evaluations change throughout the year. So just because a player is a 4 star now doesn’t mean he won’t be bumped to a 5 star. Happens every year. Now, go watch a Matt Moscona rant and cry.
These kids still have a year to play and 3 to 4 of bama’s current commits are projected to be 5 stars by July 8th and not to mention the 3 5 stars slated to commit to bama in the coming days
Y’all in here talking about Alabama head football coach He was handed a gold platter. He was not handed a A bad program he has not coached a game We all need to see what he does on the football field on Saturday
That was the point of everyone when he was hired. He’s shown immense success and ability at each stop on his coaching career. He turned Washington from a 4 win team into playing in the National Championship game in 2 seasons with a bunch of 3 star talent. After being hired at Alabama they said that he’s a great coach but he can’t recruit the South or the SEC. Well he’s certainly proving that wrong. It seems sensible to think that someone with his track record for success would do even better than ever before when he’s got more talent on his roster than ever before, wouldn’t you agree ? RTR

@@bigslik75 You lost key players off of one of Saban's weakest teams, signed the 13th ranked class in 2024 then lost the QB, brought in some three stars in the portal to replace five stars leaving int he portal. DeBoer has never coached through an SEC season. Someone's gonna learn that's for sure.
Also isn’t bama rated top 3 in the portal rankings? You should really check in on other teams bc losing Nick saban and ONLY 45 guys leaving is pretty good. Still hurting from that shutout championship game?
