When you were told that Saban was being hired, and HONESTLY, what were your thoughts?

A. this guy is gonna lead us to the promised land
B. i think he's overrated
c. I could care less, we've had some bad/so-so hires the last umpteen years.
d. lets just wait see..

I would say more toward A than anything. That was at a point where LSU was still dominating people and he had just left there a couple years before.

Some combination of A and D. I knew what he did at LSU, but I didn't want to get my hopes up.

A..and it was even further solidified when you heard his first press conference, after stepping off the plane in t-town.

A. I figured we'd win a NC in 4 years. I was close.

I was glad to have him, not because of his accomplishments at LSU, but because of how he coaches. We've needed that for a long time.

I wasn't very optimistic at 1st because we had been let down for the past 10 years basically.

I was extremely happy that we were getting
a coach that would'n't stand on the sideline
clapping like an a-hole after a shithead play

I figured it would take a little bit longer than it actually did.

With that said....Saban + Bama = Uber Dynasty.

2007 Lsu fans:

He looks out-of-place at Bama. You can tell he'd give his right arm to be back at LSU. But, he's YOUR problem, now.


quote:

I used to hate Saban, but now I merely dislike him intensely and then only because he is a Gump. Forget that arse clown. I'll take Les over any other college coach in America.

Let 'er rip, Les.


quote:

Anyone notice how much Nicky's aged? He's losing a lot of hair and the lines in his face are getting deeper. Is this a natural aging process or is it stress and disappointment for taking a job and dealing with the most delusional fans in college football?

His days are numbered. I say he's gone faster than expected, probably 2 more years of Nicky and that's it.


quote:

Les Miles Lives...The Bear is dead...Nick Saban is dying along with the Bama program.


quote:

Putting personal feelings aside, there is a part of me that actually feels for the man. He has made a couple of shitty career moves, and is still trying to dig out of them. Retiring for awhile might not be such a bad idea for the boy.


Bama fans in 2007

quote:

Talk about us all you want, but we will talk back. Nothing wrong with that.

Bama will be back


quote:

If we get a big win or two and LSU gets a loss, which is only a matter of time, LSU will be watching an irrelevant team play for the SEC championship.


quote:

Bama won 10 games with idiots like Dubois and Shula, and now that we have a coach that a least knows his a-hole from his elbow we will be competing for the SEC WEST again in the future, and if you can win the west and make it to the SECCG you probably compete for bigger championships


quote:

I want Alabama to be at a realistic level of competing for the SEC West and playing to make the SECCG. I believe we are 2-3 more years away from being at that level after this year.


quote:

Bama fans are optimistic about our chances to become elite again because great football program's never die.
