Bama folks… how much longer do you give Saban?

He’s gotta be on a short leash at this point. Think Bowden at the end of his FSU days… that’s what Bama is trending towards. These coordinators are C- hires at best and won’t help him win CFP’s, which is the only thing that matters in T-Town.

Realistically who are y’all lining up to replace Nick? That’s where your minds should be.

HELL of a run, but his dominant days are over.

I'll at least give him until he stops going to NY6 games and signing the #1 class in the country.

That’s window dressing. Meanwhile Kirby is running away with college football.

We play at WVU in 2026. He'd certainly have 300+ wins by then and Morgantown is about 30 minutes away from his home town. The placement on the schedule doesn't seem like a coincidence

I say when he finishes outside the Top 10 for the first time since 2007 you gotta fire his arse.

It’s hard to rise to the top. It’s harder to stay there. Which way is Bama trending? FSU let Bowden stick around far too long because he finished in the top 4 a bunch of times.

He can stay as long as lsu fans are obsessed with him.

Well that seems entirely reasonable. You clearly have no place in this thread

1 year removed from NC game, 2 loss season by a combined 4 pts on the road = Multiple 7-6 seasons…..got it

I guess you’re lucky Brian Kelly didn’t get his C- coordinator to follow him from South Bend

Bowden's last 9 seasons went

8-4
9-5
10-3
9-3
8-5
7-6
7-6
9-4
7-6


So...yea we're clearly right in the middle of that or something.

George there’s no sense reasoning with the mentally disabled.

I think Saban will make to 100 if Miss terry doesn't work him too hard.

Lost to UT and lost to LSU. Auburn sucks otherwise that probably would have been an L. Didn’t make Atlanta, can’t beat Kirby anymore. Take off the crimson glasses. Bama has gotten soft and apparently is completely ok with the downward trend.

Dabo isn’t the answer either and there’s nobody on staff to take the job. Gonna get ugly before it gets better.

One key thing missing on the report is lack of top recruiting classes on a regular basis. Did you think FSU was recruiting the right players to fit the system? Fisher was lucky with one quarterback then back down to where Bowden did in most years.

Yep, feeling good about not firing our coach.

Good talk.

Talk to me after another two or three losses this year. The problem with kings is they rarely groom their replacement. Ego and such.

Meanwhile Kelly took the west in year 1 and Kirby owns the conference really. The ride is probably over, friend.

Maybe next time make a declarative statement instead of asking a question if you are going to argue with the answers.

In players arrested for sure. Since 2016 Kirby has had 21 players arrested. He has perfected the Saban way with internal punishments, and internal coverups. He learned from the best for sure.
