re: ****The Official Jim Leonhard aka Next Saban Thread****

95 percent of coaches are meh. you're delusional if you think the best will run to Bama, not with the new economics of things (tv money, etc). Look at who Oklahoma hired or Texas. Even OSU has had to hire a lower level coach in Tressel and recently promoted Ryan Day. Sabans don't come around often.

If Saban retire in the next 5 years it’ll be Dabo. If he stays 8+ more it’ll be either Kirby coming back from the NFL to college or Lane.
We won’t be hiring any Big 10 defensive coordinator.
Btw your point is really dumb. I don’t think either of these coaches are great but TAMU stole Jimbo from FSU and LSU stole Kelly from Notre freaking Dame. We will be able to get almost anyone we want. That won’t be Leonhard. He’ll either be fired by then or he’ll be headed to a mid level SEC job like Arky or Ole Miss.
