re: So will Saban go the way of Bowden and Brown

With the competitiveness of the SEC and with the upcoming play-off system (only 1 week to prepare if you make the championship game), he might not win another one...heck, it's hard enough to win 1 and he's got 4 as it is. Either way, I think he'll at least have Bama in the mix of making the final 4 most years...

Don't see him goin' the way of Bowden or Brown either. Both had several sub-par seasons while Saban's only had 1 at Bama (his first). Bowden won 2 titles but wasn't eased out till 'bout 10 years after his last one...and Brown won 1 and was gently shoved out the door 8 years later...

Don't think Saban will be coaching 8 or 10 years down the road...and I don't see him goin' out Woody style either...I'm guessin' he might take over as AD at Bama but, more likely, I see him maybe takin' a sportscasting job with ESPN...maybe sometime within the next 5 years...
