You've been a great coach, but you are now a victim of your own success. You are a perfectionist and have a very good but complicated process. It requires time for your players to learn. You need mostly 4 and 3 star type guys that are hungry, but OK with sitting and learning. Your process will allow you to take the occasional 5 star with a good head on his shoulders, but you should avoid the parade of 5 star prima-donnas that expect to be immediate starters. Those guys aren't patient enough to learn your system and they are stressing you out.

What the hell are you talking about? He is currently the defending SEC Champion and has won 3 of the last 6 national championships. Seems like his process is working fine.

Our enemies pray for our downfall. They ride the dicks of the Suckeyes and Sooners as if it makes their pathetic programs any better

Their is a theme on the tRant "Anybody but Alabama".

Feels good bro.

Just shows how great a coaching job he did in 2008. Turning those mediocre players into serviceable athletes was not easy.

Shula's final recruiting class started off 13-13 and finished their college football careers on a 26-2 run.

Stop worshipping our coach. That goes for chicken and ice cold too. Focus people, focus.

If playing name that tune - Satisfaction. Hey, the Stones are coming.

FYI - Alabama is the only state where posting is considered an occupational career.
