No, sorry, Saban has been a head coach since 1995 except for 1 year earlier at Toledo and needed the better talent base at LSU to win his first natty in 2003. Florida has advantages in recruiting that Mullen has never had before. It will be Mullen and Smart fighting it out for years unless Smart goes to Alabama after Saban retires. Mullen has a shot to win some natties, maybe even before Saban retires, though that will be tough. Saban is, after all, the best ever.
I mean, yea, but we're talking about Mullen's career, and it's been entirely during Saban's era at Alabama.
He will still be around when Saban finishes up, but he'll be in his mid-50s and probably getting towards his last 5-10 years at that point. But even with that, he's been 1 drive away from beating Alabama for 2 straight seasons. I don't think it's crazy to think he could get us before Saban retires at all.
