I think we all can agree that Nick is the best coach the country right now and perhaps the best ever. My question is tho is he good enough to win a title at a school like Arkansas? I know it'll never likely happen but i cant help myself but to wonder. What do you think his win average would be? Would he out do Petrino's years? Could he win a Championship?

This thread will get flamed like crazy for no reason but of course. He's a relentless recruiter with his staff, and Arkansas is a somewhat good recruiting state AS WELL as he's right next to Texas.

No instate competition for HS recruits? I would say its highly likely for him to have success.

Well, he won one at LSU, and Arkansas is a much better overall program, so I'd have to say yes.

Petrino was also a much better football coach. Saban's strength is program building and recruiting. He is not a coach that can take inferior talent and beat supperior talent (assuming the talent gap is not huge) while Petrino is.

Question would simple be could he recruit well enough to win at Arky. I think it would be tough. Better than he was at Michigan State, not up to LSU or Bama levels.
