Hypothetically, Georgia Missed Saban by a Year

We like to rag on Georgia for perennially coming up short but just imagine how different 21st century SEC football could be to this point if Saban had stayed at Michigan State one more season and been offered and accepted the Georgia head coaching vacancy.

Would Georgia have afforded Saban the resources he had at LSU to return Georgia to powerhouse status?

Saban has had an enormous impact on the SEC while coaching in the league for 13 seasons. Ranters, can you even fathom how things might stand today if Saban had waited a year and landed at UGA instead?

I can't say anything with certainty because this is a hypothetical. However,

1. Saban may not have developed into as great of a coach as he is today.
2. I doubt LSU would have been as consistent in the 15 years since their firing of DiNardo. LSU had the talent but lacked the coaching with DiNardo to become a national contender.
3. LSU fans wouldn't harbor resentment towards Saban for his "betrayal".
4. Alabama may never have landed him either.
5. If he enjoyed the job, Saban would at least have accomplished what Richt did his first several seasons if not more since LSU might not have been a factor.
6. Tennessee might be in better straits.
7. The conference as a whole would be worse off.
