I think so. Bama will probably be stuck with him for a long time now because nobody else will take him. Will probably starting winning only 1 of 3 NCs instead of 2 of 3. Alabama football entering dark days.

wouldn't suprise me... but that could still mean another few SEC Championships and NCs before his time there is done... it just might not mean a 4 or 5 year run like they've had recently.

we'll see.

Unless Saban discovers the fountain of youth, I'd say you're 100% correct.

Nope, declining ticket, gameday, and merchandise sales combined with declining ad sales, TV revenue, and bowl revenue has left Alabama broke and unable to buy out Saban's contract. It's quite a mess all around.

I don't think so. I think he is done and fricked. He will retire or leave bama in 5 more years with only 1 SEC championship in total.

This statement is entertaining coming from a UT fan that is so depressed about his team he has a Grizzlies avi. What happened to your shiddy UT avi?

Let me guess UT sux so you changed it and now feel you can troll some Bama fans.

By the way Bama will be playing for the SEC Championship. Where will UT be that hasn't won a conference game this year? At home watching Bama play

UT a 4 point favorite vs Vandy, which IMO should be a pick'em at best.

I honestly didn't expect you to still be around. With as great as Alabama is and as bad as Auburn is - I thought you'd probably have committed suicide by now.

I'm impressed you've stuck it out.

Well yeah but to be fair, you thought Chiz was better than Saban and auburn had the best coaching staff in the nation.
