If at all, it would be to take over again @ BAMA if the current coach doesn't win the SEC in the next two years. I can't see him anywhere else after all the honors BAMA gave him.

He's 73. He is the GOAT but it is hard to believe he wants to spend that kind of time, or has that kind of time, these days. So his first season with a new team he'd be 74. But it will take far less time to build a team as five+ years ago, it was about recruiting. Now it is NIL and Xfer portal.

I think you're right about age being a big factor. I recall one of the reasons he left was the problem with re-recruiting his roster. There won't be many changes to that process so I expect that would remain a barrier.

I don't believe that will happen. He couldn't stretch the rules enough at MSU to win anything while he was there before......
