A lot of times we Bama fans just make outrageous predictions to get you all riled up and laugh at your replies.

In reality, most Bama fans' predictions haven't been nearly as delusional as the predictions of those of you who, just three short years ago, were saying that Bama would never be able to hire a good coach, would never be a national power again, would never win the SEC, that LSU/Auburn would beat us every year from now on, and that Bear Bryant was dead. Now, most of those statements have been proven wrong, and it looks likely that the the others were wrong too.

In all fairness, this was very close to being true. Every coach in the country just about turned you guys down, and it was a direct result of the crazy assed fans in Alabama. You guys are absolutely a great program, but a lot of coaches were afraid of the monster down there.

You'd have to admit that coaching search was a disaster, and getting Saban was a Hail Mary on 4 and long.

Everyone who thinks Bear Bryant is still alive, raise your hand.

If your hand is up, you're delusional.
