Coming into Smart's second year as HC let's look at how other sabanites did their first two years. This is not all of the Saban coached cfb coaches but they are the most known and I am doing the program that they are currently at with the exception of boom.

Mark Dantonio: 108-59
-2007: 7-5, lost bowl game.
-2008: 9-3, lost bowl game (to the dawgs!).

Jimbo Fisher: 78-17
-2010: 9-3, won bowl game.
-2011: 8-4, won bowl game.

Jim Mcelwain: 41-24
-2015: 10-3, lost bowl game.
-2016: 8-4, won bowl game.

Will Muschamp: 34-28
-2011: 6-6, won bowl game.
-2012: 11-1, lost bowl game.

Kirby smart: 7-5
-2016: 7-5, won bowl game.
-2017: ?

So what do y'all think the record for 2017 will be? I say 9-3 with a bowl win and seccg appearance. Just imagine how nice it would be if all the SEC coaches above succeeded and followed the trend, the east would be stacked.

I don't want the east stacked. Just us.

I'm glad the East is not stacked. Makes 9-3 very manageable

If we don't win 10 games (The bowl game can be included) I will be disappointed. We have a lot of talent, and depth. We won't be perfect, or anywhere near perfect, but we should be head and shoulders better than last year.

Agreed. I'd rather win 9 and the east than 10 and no seccg appearance though but if we get either of the two we'll probably win the division.

Quite honestly, I think the coaching tree thing is irrelevant.

Why? Seems silly to compare Mcelwain's second head coaching job to Kirby' s first. I would imagine he learned a few things at his first head coaching gig.
