In year two - Kalen DeBoer went 7-1 in the SEC and has earned Alabama a spot in the SECCG and likely the CFP.
Considering the talent level across the conference and favoring in that Alabama is still on flux, transitioning from past to future, I’d say he’s doing a pretty damn good job.
Less than 24 months ago - this roster was gutted when Nick Saban retired. You hear it every Saturday, “the former Alabama _____,” yet Kalen DeBoer came in recuited his tail off and has finished with the same record as the GOAT through his first two seasons with the Tide (regular season) - in a time where the drop-off between team talent is at its lowest point in 25 years.
He’s the man for the job.
