Yep I agree with this. I expect a return to competing for the sec regularly but not near the NC opportunities unless they hit a home run hire

I feel confident that we will make a decent hire just based on the situation we can offer.
Con is following a legend with a fanbase that already expected to win titles every now and now REALLY expects it.
However, pros are, unlike previous searches, we are now elite in terms of facilities, infrastructure, etc (not to mention a stacked roster). Saban, as LSU knows, builds a thing to last.
So, I assume we will hire at least a solid coach, be elite for the first 2-3 years post Saban and then remain anywhere between pretty good to elite depending on who that coach is. I don't think we'll be hiring any DuBoses or Shulas.
