Charles Huff all the way. And Saban can come back home to WV and coach at Marshall.

Why? Because you don't think Dabo would take it? He checks so many more boxes than Kiffin, including being from Alabama, playing for Alabama, having more success, and being less of a douche. Kiffin would ruin the program.

That's debatable, they are both pretty big douches

I think Wisconsin wants to take a run at native son Lance Leipold before Nebraska can hire him away from Kansas.

Notice I said "less"? Majority of coaches at that level are varying degrees of douchebaggery, but for me Kiffin is among the top.

I find post TN Kiffin to be far less douchey than he was before. At least he's more entertaining now than he was.

Concur.. Pre-Bama Kiffin was insufferable. After taking his lumps in Knoxville, trying to screw them, and having it handed to him at USC... Saban took him in at the "Home for Wayward Coaches" and seems to have calmed him down.

Saw an article about what had happened that made him change while he was at FAU. Was very susceptible, but he seems to be holding true. As in "real life", trying to fix a first impression takes forever.

I started following him last Spring on Twitter. He's hilarious.

Bingo. I think he's been "coached" on his public persona. Deep down though, if he were to take over the reigns at Alabama we'd see a major d-bag hulk-out.

Oh all that whining about the NIL deals would cease to exist and he'd be like deal with it.
I can't see him bolting Ole Miss though. And here's why.
At Ole Miss, yes they want to win, but if they win more than they lose and lose to people they're supposed to lose two, go to a major bowl and beat Mississippi State on the reg, maybe win a game here and there they're not supposed to, being the HC at Ole Miss could be a cushy job as long as he can recruit talent.
Dan Mullen had the same gig at Moo U, go to bowl games and beat Ole Miss on the reg and you can live here the rest of your days. He took the first ticket out of Starkville for Gainsville and didn't produce.
Kiffin would be expected to have at least a CFP appearance and a National title within 2 years of taking the reins at Bama.

You’re forgetting Lane Kiffin’s ego. He’d have those crazy expectations on himself.

That all makes total sense to you and me. But his ego fed on elite jobs like USC and the NFL, the only thing I see slowing him down from world domination is prison
