Saban made demands at LSU . Those demands were met. Prior to that it was to one degree or another Good Ol Boy status quo football. LSU has a GREAT football culture, it was pervasive and rabid. LSU also had some sporadically really, really good teams that couldn’t quite close the deal, but was never a great football PROGRAM. Saban built facilities and raised expectations- changed it from an annual team to a program.
Miles, for all he got correct, lost the script from a resources standpoint. He didn’t innovate and keep the competitive edge and Alabama pulled away as a program. It was more than Xs and Os. All the little things that matter.
O has taken it all to a much higher level than Miles from a program perspective. What O wants, O gets. Analysts, facilities, budgets, it’s all there now. He has committed to being the most innovative and analytics- driven program in cfb and it shows.

quote:people forget that this happened at EVERY historically great program; nd, army, bama, fsu, texas, tenn, michigan, osu. there was a coach in their history that demanded excellence. after that, the program was able to get good coaches and players and avoid long droughts. occasionally, that didn't work out like with ole miss.
