re: How long until Alabama football follows Kentucky basketball?

Karma isn't exactly a friendly word for us, bro.

I'd say it won't as long as Saban is there. Cal's primary method of success was that he'd figured out a way to game the system better than most for a time. Others have caught up.

Saban may be gaming the system a little bit, but he's also just a good coach and a good executive. Look at Snyder. You can do this thing well into your sunset years if you lay the foundation first. Unfortunately, I don't think Bama is going anywhere soon. And that's very unhealthy for CFB. They may tank the entire sport.
