As we get ready for a crucial week for the Alabama football and basketball departments, it was a busy Tuesday at BamaCentral. “The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral” is where we go right in and cover it all.
Without head coach Nick Saban, the Crimson Tide football team gets ready for its first National Signing Day. Fortunately, Saban gave new head coach Kalen DeBoer a limited list of “to-dos” for the current cycle, which lessens the drama of tomorrow’s event. With the exception of Arkansas and Florida, all of the Southeastern Conference midweek schedule is examined. Sadly, there aren’t many matches that will blow your mind, but in the SEC, anything can happen.
We talk about the Alabama Crimson Tide’s exciting week as they prepare to play the Auburn Tigers in “The Jungle” at Neville Arena. Both teams are ranked in the top twenty for the first time since 1987 in the same game, demonstrating the progress both programs have made under coaches Bruce Pearl and Nate Oats. What do you think the game will score? We part with ours to you. Lastly, we quickly discuss the two new Alabama coaches that DeBoer seems to be selecting: Jay Nunez, a well-respected up-and-comer, and William Inge, an old buddy. Given that the Tide appear to have 11 coaches vying for 10 places, will Nunez coach special teams or take a job off the field?
