Hypothetical, what if the next five years of saban's tenure = the previous 5 of Miles, what would bama fans reaction be?


2017 - 11-2
2018 - 13-1
2019 - 10-3
2020 - 10-3
2021 - 8-5

I think we'd probably be getting restless at the end of an 8-5 season for sure. I definitely don't think we'd be considering finding a replacement for him. At that point we would have had 12 consecutive 10 win seasons. Not bad.

I think it's going to be very interesting to see how bama's fanbase reacts the next time yall have a "down" year. Hell, the only down season you've had since 08 was 10-3. I'm curious to see what happens the next time bama goes 8-5 or something.

I bet Bama fans would feel differently if Saban failed year after year to develop a quarterback sufficiently.

Mettenberger aside (who came to us somewhat trained up by UGA), LSU has been noticeably awful at developing QBs since Jimbo Fisher (a Saban hire) moved on.

It's not just LSU fans noticing these things. We hear it over and over again in the national media and from the yokels broadcasting our games.

The main knock on Kiffin is that he takes unnecessary chances but he has actually been doing a fantastic job of calling the game lately.

Maybe we're wrong. Maybe Cam and Crowton were/are terrific at QB development.

But I'm not seeing it and I've been (for most of the last 10 years) a Miles supporter.

I give him one more year.
