If Saban never arrived, you would be a less prestigious version of Ole Miss. At times, college football is cyclical, and at times it isn't. LSU in the 2000s is an example of an anomaly, not an up-cycle. The sooner you accept that falling arse backwards in to Saban is the only thing that ever, or will ever, bring you success. The happier you'll be.

The blueprint is there. We have a ton of in-state talent and no other big time program in-state to recruit against. We will be successful again. This isn't Tennessee or Michigan where you have to recruit big time out of state guys to compete at a high level. You also forget Saban wasn't nearly as successful here as he has been at Bama.
