Beat Everyone Podcast: DeBoer isn’t Saban and that’s OK

Welcome to Beat Everyone, AL.com’s new home for the conversations Bama fans are having right now. In the debut episode, host Ben Flanagan is joined by AL.com college football columnist Michael Casagrande and producer Matt Scalici for a frank discussion about the changing culture at Alabama. How does Kalen DeBoer’s philosophy compare to Nick Saban’s? Does he have full control of this team yet? They also address the ridiculous “Husky Harsin” comparisons coming from Auburn fans and then are joined by Beat Everyone producer John Hammontree for a quiz about how much the world has changed since Mike Shula stepped down.

Then, Ben is joined by former Alabama quarterback John Parker Wilson for a conversation about how he navigated a coaching change as quarterback, the early days of the Saban dynasty, the ‘call me’ celebration against LSU, the moment he first saw Julio Jones take the field, the hardest hit he ever took in practice, plus a whole lot more.

It’s a new era for Alabama fans, but we still have one expectation: Beat Everyone.
