re: Gus Malzahn in the SEC: Predictions from tRant

To be fair to all coaches in the SEC West - everybody can't win 10 games every year. Gus has as good a chance as all of them except Saban. The number of 5*'s and track record at Bama is unprecedented right now. That being said - if Gus can push Saban to retire in the next couple of years then AU is going to rule the West for a long time. No Saban in the West - Gus will get another 3 or 4 top recruits and the torch will be passed. Very similar to Bear - Dye torch passing except Gus will be winning titles because he can run more than dive left (see..Burt).
