No one expects Saban 2.0. 10 wins a year and beating AU and UT more often than not will satisfy the vast majority. Win a title and he will get a statue.



LOL

I mean, yeah, eventually that might be the case. I think it's a lot to ask your fanbase, especially the "extended" portion, to get to that reality overnight.

As other fans on here are quick to point out, Saban "only" won one title in the last 6 seasons, and Alabama fans were more than satisfied. Judging us by our worst fans is like judging LSU or Auburn based on Willy T, Chex, etc.

At some point, younger fans will become impatient for titles of their own generation if DeBoer can't produce them. Older fans like myself, however, have had our fill and will be just fine for the foreseeable future.

We're already doing this, really. We just played an entire season with a fake quarterback and had a mind-numbingly bad DC the two years before that.
