For two seasons, Bill O’Brien was the offensive coordinator for the Crimson Tide. In those two years, Alabama had a Heisman Trophy winner, an SEC championship, a national championship appearance and a handful of other notable accolades. However, fans were not happy with the job O’Brien did with the offense.
After the 2022 season, he left Tuscaloosa and returned to the New England Patriots to serve as the franchise’s offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
Now, O’Brien is set to take over the offensive play-calling responsibilities for Ohio State in 2024, as the Buckeyes recently hired him as the team’s new offensive coordinator. Alabama fans took to social media to share their thoughts.
Ohio State got their guys
I thought our football program had a tough week but Ohio State just hired Ross Bjork and Bill O’Brien on purpose

Alabama fans will let them hear about it.
This Ryan Day’s final stand at Ohio State. Relying on Bill O’Brien to save the program is certainly a choice. Just ask Alabama fans. https://t.co/zDc4fLxigV

And now they share a campus!
I can hear this image
Fight the urge
Wondering how Michigan fans feel
Numbers…
Bill O’Brien really took a player like Jahmyr Gibbs and turned him into a sub 1000 yard rusher AND sub 500 yard receiver at Alabama 🤣🤣

This is wild
An unbelievable stat
Bill O’Brien spent eight total years working for either Bill Belichick (2007-2011, 2023) or Nick Saban (2021-2022) and didn’t win a Super Bowl or a National Championship.
That’s gotta be a club with a membership of one
