TNR 2/17/26 - Hour 1 | Stephen A. Smith vs. Kalen DeBoer! National Media DOGPILE!

When Stephen A. Smith sees Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Kalen DeBoer, he doesn’t see the rightful heir to the Nick Saban dynasty. And, the ESPN personality made that painfully clear once more, but with a caveat. “I’m not a fan of Kalen DeBoer as the successor to Nick Saban. I have no problem with him as a football coach,” Smith said on Monday’s edition of The Paul Finebaum Show on SEC Network.
