Saban at Alabama. I know it seems 1,000 years ago, but when he came in, most of the chatter was that Bama had been irrelevant for too long in too small a state to become a force again any time soon if ever. He goes 7-6 his first year, wins the Sugar Bowl his next

Uhhhh recheck your history and you will see that Saban got taken behind the woodshed in the Sugar Bowl by Utah. In his first year he also lost to Louisiana Monroe or somesuch....but obviously got the defense he needed to start winning.

Yeah, I fricked up the Sugar Bowl thing. I didn't mean to say he won it but that he just got there. But that has zero to do with what I ultimately saying. Forest. Trees.

Yes, he lost to ULM his first year, but if I needed to add that to make 7-6 sound like a bad thing, then I much better understand where you are coming from.
