I remember as a kid my dad telling me that Alabama will start getting good again once I started there, mainly just based on sanctions being up and his hopeful attitude during the dark Dubose and Fran years. His consideration of good was being annually in the hunt for the SEC title (not winning, just not being out of it after two conference games), and in the national title hunt every 4 or 5 years (again not winning, but being talked about).

We hired Saban my sophomore year of undergrad. What he's done since then has been absolutely mind blowing. 4 SEC titles, 4 national championships this shite is unprecedented in modern CFB history, and the best part of it is that there's no real signs of slowing that pace. This is truly the golden age of Alabama football.

I'm 40, so I know the dark ages after '92 well and the ones before that with Perkins barely and Curry somewhat, but going through the bad times makes this Saban Era so much sweeter and like you're Dad said, those expectations would be fine, what we are doing is just the whipped cream and cherry on top.
