For the most part we do have a lot of similar things to other schools, Tuscaloosa is nice and there are a lot of things to do but that can also be said for Baton Rouge as well, however like I said earlier one thing that seperates us from others is our history. Bama has one of the most rich football histories there is with numerous hall of fame players who have walked through the capstone also the football facilities that have been set up here is one of if not the best in college football along the same lines as what you would see at most NFL complexes. Saban would still get top classes because I believe that is just the type of coach he is, but I do believe that he has established a system here that is so great that the only way a coach would not be able to atleast achieve a 10 win season per year is if he is not ready to handle the responsibilities at that level. So I can understand why you would feel the way you feel because LSU is a powerhouse program, but how things are established now and also because Saban himself said that he would play a part in choosing the next coach to come here. I agree that the floor for Bama with Saban gone would be where LSU is at the moment.

I could see that over 3 years. Similar to Miles 05-07. But after that you are on your own. Miles is lucky to have Louisiana to himself. And believe it or not LSU has given mile the highest assistant salary total in College football for the majority of his time here.
