re: First 3 seasons at Bama after the original GOAT retired

1983: 8-4 (below average results for Bama; no SEC title)
1984: 5-6 (uh-oh cracks forming)
1985: 9-2-1 (ship gets slightly righted but still average results for Bama; no SEC title)

Past performance does not guarantee future results but thats how things went down.

So we are not guaranteed to decline based on the past of the original GOAT retiring. Great to know.
