Just an observation......about Tricky Nicky

What is a good age for a coach to retire.

is that a question or a statement?

ETA: whenever they stop loving the game

I remember him in an interview at LSU back in the day saying he was not going to be like Paterno or Bowden. With the money now, he will be at his lake in Georgia once his contract expires with Bama assuming he doesn't take one more shot at the NFL (would have to be the right job with personnel already in place).

I also remember him saying that. saban is not the type to hang around forever-kinda proved that already. The guy is an ego maniac & all things go in cycles. He's got his hardware, from 2 schools, he's got his money, oh & lets not forget that little statue. He's going to be around another 5 years or so, he probably figures if he's going to win another NC, it will take place within that time frame, after that, w/out another NC, the bummers will start whining & life won't be as rosey, so he'll take his money & run. I doubt he gives the NFL another try. He'll probably end up as an analyst or something, although with his personality, I don't know if he'll make it as a tv guy. Either way, I don't see him hanging around past his prime, too much ego to ride the slide.

G E A U X T I G E R S!!!

When $aban finally calls it quits, LSU must move swiftly, to get a young coach with a lot of promise to replace whoever is sucking it up for us then.

and the obsession continues.

At 60, that'll be the right age to be our AD and HC for a few years, while he grooms the HC in waiting.

It sucks that we're hoping for saban to retire early

At least you have come to the conclusion that it's the only chance you have...

Is this the tiger rant or what
