How likely are you to find someone with anything remotely resembling those credentials?
Zero. The best realistic shot we have is Dabo and/or Fisher, and their resumes will be impressive but not quite at that level (and I'm not sure we could get either).

do you really think the Bama braintrust will give your next HC the kind of total control over the program that Saban was given when he was hired?
Unlike pre-Saban we had an elite athletic department run by an elite athletic director. I have faith that they'll do all they can to get things right.

quote:I think your biggest concern will be if the vestiges of the GOB system that fought for control of the program pre-Saban decide to reassert themselves. I'm sure there are still a few old greyheads that are thinking "Alabama football didn't become great because of Saban, we can go back to running things our way and not miss a beat".

But then again, Saban may outlast all those guys. Dammit.
