What was Sabans record the first year at Alabama and how many years did it take for him to right the ship?
Legitimate question. Alabama was 7-6 in 2007, Saban's first year at Alabama.
However, they were 6-7 in 2006, the year before Saban got there....so it could be argued that he began to right the ship his first year. However, in 2008 he was 11-2. So, he had gotten thing going really well in his second year. And I can assure you....he took over a worse situation than Kirby Smart did.
And, at the end of the year, we might be saying the same about Kirby Smart. if the team shows improvement going forth, then I think most on here will be satisfied.
I do not expect a win this week, though. i will be elated and will be the first to say he did a GREAT job if we beat Tennessee. Likewise...if he finishes with a 9-3 regular season record I will be very satisfied.

But Bama wasn't Saban's first HC gig. It's important to distinguish that. He had already been HNIC twice before that - Sparty and the Dolphins.
