re: Why did Saban not have the same type success at LSU?

I truly believe he would have, had he been there 10 years or more.

Absolutely. Look at the freight train lsu was right when he left

2003-won national title
2004-finished 9-3, bowl loss was terrible, who knows where Sabans head was at

saban leaves

2005-lsu goes 11-2 finished 5 in the country
2006-lsu goes 11-2 finished 3 in the country
2007-lsu goes 12-2 wins national title


So in a 5 season stretch, in which we only had Saban for 2 seasons, and a worse coach in Miles for 3:

we won the national title and sec title in 2/5 years
competed for an sec title in 3/5 years
finshed top 5 in 4/5 years



We were setup for a bama run there
