We didn't expect Saban to win it in his first year though just because Shula recruited really well. And Saban didn't win one till his third year, even though he had already won a title at another SEC school.

I'm just saying it's unrealistic to expect your new coach to come in and win it all next year.

I'm not saying that shouldn't be the goal but it should not be the expectation next yesr.

If we did not have the talent then your point is well taken. Our problem has not been talent. Our problem has been coaching. CNS is a disciplined genius, plain and simple. CLM (whom I personally love) is a loveable rogue who lacked the discipline or the drive to match CNS. He only caught him off guard a few times early in the series but CNS learned and adapted. He built a team to defeat his greatest threat at the time, LSU. And if LSU ever wants to rise to prominence again they are going to have to kick in the door that is Alabama. They are the greatest obstacle for LSU at this time. Reminds me of Bum Phillips back in the day (I am a huge Steelers fan but I loved the guy).
