per Lucky on Bol;

Spoken to numerous sources this spring and summer .... people that are close to Coach Saban.

The general consensus is that Saban has mellowed to some degree and his having the most fun of his career -- and this was happening before this past season's BCS Title.

The general consensus is that he will coach another 8 to 10 years. I tend to agree with that timetable.

He is very aware of his legacy and where it stands now and what it could be.

I heard from Dean Legge that Richt cried last night because Kathryn brought home Banna Pudding ice cream and he wanted Rocky Road. Stay tuned.

He hurts his legacy by staying at Alabama. Bear Bryant is the legend at Alabama. Nick Saban could have been a Bear Bryant type figure if he had gone to a school that didn't have such a winning tradition before him.

Im saying 8 years, then Kirby Smart comes back home and takes over after the Gig he takes sooner or later.

so saban is happy, and it took two edits for lucky to post that?

Is this what we're reduced to in the off season?

As to Saban's age...I'm not worried that he is 60. Bryant was in the prime of his career in his 60s. From 1973, when he turned 60, to his retirement at 69 in 1982, Bryant went a combined 103-16-1 with 3 national championships and 7 SEC championships.

If Forrest Gump is a legacy at Bama, I guess gumps can call Saban one.
