Les Miles was elite the first few years post-Saban

Apples and oranges. There was no portal or NIL in 2005. I never dreaded Saban's exit because I knew he would leave a stacked roster. Didn't count on players to be able to leave on a whim. With that said, I still think Bama hired the right guy. It may take a season or two to get back to a truly elite level but everything I read about him suggests he is an excellent coach. Time will tell.
