re: Is Bama all Saban or would they win without him?

Gene Stallings was a great coach, you really didn’t have much of a talent advantage at all.

I am not going into it, but you are going to have to pull back in a lot of shite with Saban leaves, as he and Emerett will leave at about same time. We are really pissed at you Mfers but unlike you bastards we are not back stabbers and will remain loyal and not rat you out.

However, Ohio State, Notre Dame and some others are lying in wait. Everyone in coaching circles knows this, Saban didn’t make a lot of friends like Bear did to cover this shite. ( Hang around Senior bowl some time, you can sit right next to them hear them talk about abiding their time, etc. ).

So his successor will either have to pull back on “certain things”, or likely get nailed as other schools get their pound of flesh. Sins of the father shite. Some of this same shite happened after Bear, it wasn’t just probations it was inability to do “things”. They passed rule after rule and stayed on your arse. SMUs getting smashed was a really a warning to everyone else, clean it up. 3 strikes you are out. You guys have been on 2 for years.

Hence, who wants to be that Coach, expected to be Saban like without all the tools.
