re: If Saban Were To Retire or Leave Within 2 Years...

Normally a copmetnat assistant is the best bet (see.... too many examples to mention) but Alabama especially seems to have a bad history with them. If Saban retires I think Alabama probably only rivals Texas, Ohio State or an un-probationed USC as a big time job and if Saban leaves after a title or two it's THE big job. I'd hope we go for the biggest splash possible since.... we can.
