When Little Nicky finally decides to hang em up, what will be the fate of Bama.

They have the history, facilities and administration that will do whatever it takes to win. So the new coach will have everything he needs to win at a high level. On the flip side, Bama is not immune to some lean times and sometimes it's difficult to follow a "legend"

They'll still be a top 5-10 program. They may have a bad year or two (by Bama's standards), but they'll bounce back.

Depends on whether they get put on probation. If they dont, they will be fine.

They will be fine for a few years after Saban no matter what just due to the talent they have. The rest depends on the hire that follows. I doubt any big name will want to follow up Saban at Bama, so my best guess is 2-3 10-11 win seasons followed by a 8 win season and a new coach.

C'est Bon will be made immortal to coach at Alabama until the end of football.

75% of their "fans" will reserve a spot on the nearest bandwagon.

It completely depends on the coach they hire and his fit in Tuscaloosa. I know that sounds really obvious, but coaches run college football.

Bama has passionate fans, storied tradition, and top notch facilities. As much as I hate to say it if they get a good coach they will still be a top 5 program.

In middle Tn the switch from Orange to Crimson over the past 7-10 years was incredible. I have never seen anything like it. There is Bama shite everywhere.

The good ole' boy network will take back over and they will hire a "Bama Man" like Dabo Swinney or Jeremy Pruitt and by the time the last Saban players are gone they will be right back where they were under Shula. Then they'll fire their Bama Man and hire the hottest name in CFB coaching and go another run.

I know, when I first moved to Nashville in 2004 you couldn't find bama shite anywhere. Now they're crawling like cockroaches. Part of it is bandwagon, the other is bama hicks moving here cause there ain't shite in alabama.

It's obnoxious. You guys get on a tear and those same fans will buy UT gear. The worst kind of sports fan.

Oh I believe it. There's even this one guy, in Farragut,TN, who was a Tennessee fan until 2001, then he became an LSU fan, then a UF fan, and is currently a Bama fan.


He also likes Kentucky basketball and the New England Patriots.
