I'll be honest - assuming that the drinking thing is still something he is seriously 100% on top of keeping under control, I'd be completely content handing things over to Sark when Saban goes.

I'm not sure I'd do that if I was another program that needed to build from scratch, but as a caretaker of what we have right now I feel pretty good about the fact that we would keep rolling for at least 4-5 years. His recruiting, offensive chops and at the very worst average program running abilities are more than enough for me - especially combined with 4-5 of working directly with Saban and being the right hand guy in the program.

I think it'd be very similar to Ryan Day right now at Ohio State. And hey, if things start falling off in 5-6 years, you start looking around for something else. That's a pretty damn good post-Saban scenario to me.

Sarkisian
- great recruiter? Yes
- great innovative and forward thinking offensive mind? Yes
- knows the ins and outs of how our program functions and runs? Yes
- respected and trusted by Saban? Yes
- major head coaching experience? Yes
- relatively young? Yes

Just seems like way too logical a fit to me - again, assuming everyone who truly knows feels good about the drinking thing.

There are so many risks with almost EVERYONE else - the continuation factor with the guy who runs and innovates the offense (which is paramount in 2020) gives him a BIG leg up on almost anyone else, IMHO.

I would absolutely take him, with that condition.
