Bear Bryant: 1958-1982 (25 years)
6 National Championships-1961 (AP,Coaches) 1964 (AP,Coaches) 1965 (AP) 1973 (Coaches) 1978 (AP) 1979 (AP,Coaches)


Nick Saban: 2007-2023 (17 years)
6 National Campionships-2009, 2011, 2012, 2015, 2017, 2020 (All AP,Coaches)






Gene Stallings: 1990-1996 (7 years)
1 National Championship-1992 (AP,Coaches)


Bama Coaches that never won an AP or Coaches Poll NC

Mike Shula: 2003-2006 (4 years)

Dennis Franchione: 2001-2002 (2 years)

Mike Dubose: 1997-2000 (4 years)

Bill Curry: 1987-1989 (3 years)

Ray Perkins: 1983-1986 (4 years)

Jennigs Whitworth: 1955-1957 (3 years)

Red Drew: 1947-1954 (8 years)

Frank Thomas: *1936-1946 (10 years)
*Frank Thomas coached at Bama from 1931-1946 but did not win an AP NC after the era started in 1936



In conclusion, Bear and Nick won 12 AP/Coaches NCs in 42 years combined at bama.

Bama won 1 AP/Coaches NC with 8 different coaches in 45 years combined.

Kalen Deboer has a chance to be the first coach at Bama to win a NC following a coach who won at least 1 NC in the AP era.

3 since 1958, which is more than Bama if Nick and Bear are removed.

So? Made a LOT of bad hires after Coach Bryant. There were too many "bosses." The administration fixed that.
Something Auburn hasn't learned to do

LSU has proven to be able to win titles with just any coach, while Bama has relied on all time greats.

Not just that, but mediocre and worse than many other programs.

Ok. Take away Saban, Les Miles and Ed Orgeron’s tenures at LSU and what does their history look like?

Frank Thomas

One hell of a coach.

Spin it how you want, but his Bama teams beat the shite out of some of the "so called" #1 teams until the Rose Bowl made a rule to keep Bama from embarrasing them.

People automatically assume bama just rolls (pardon the pun) out coaches and wins NCs.

Bear and Nick won 12 NCs in 42 years combined and 8 other coaches won 1 NC in 45 yers combined.

The point should be obvious.

The 49ers are a mediocre franchise without Montana and Young. So are the Spurs without Duncan and Robinson. The Celtics are nothing without Russell and Bird. See how dumb this shite is?

You want another stat

Danny Hit had the highest batting avg of any designated hitter with the initials DH.

Actually that is more useful than yours

This is a fun game - if you don't count Chuck Knoll & Bill Cowher - the Steelers only have one Super Bowl. Obviously, they're just lucky like Bama.

Sounds like they do a great job of hiring the best and win titles with them 25% of the time. If that’s not rolling I don’t know what is
