I think that he is just being deferential to the dude that was better than the Bear and trying, likely in vain, to temper gump expectations. The whole under promise and hope to overdeliver thing...Alabama AD Greg Byrne: 'There was not a perfect candidate that checked every single box'

Greg Byrne is a good AD and I think we all know it.
That statement means exactly what has been said. You cannot replace the best college coach to ever live very easily. He should not have had to say it but if someone has an issue with the statement, it's not about what he said, just that he said it.

My problem with the Bama hire is that this guy was already poaching our players from Seattle, Washington. What do you think he'll do being just across the state line? Byrne did us no favors.
You don’t have to be secretive if you’re Alabama.
Ninja can dress up like this now if he wanted. **
And how is this different than the above?

He didn’t poach he just took guys we didn’t want any more is what I’m told. If he keeps it up we’ll finally be able to get over that Bama hump.
I've never been particularly impressed with Byrne in his moves or in interactions. He is not a builder of anything and is more of a "no mistakes" maintenance guy. After he leaves, its interesting how programs are typically not sustained after his departure and take significant steps backwards.
Byrne is about Byrne.
