Why hasn’t it affected Tennessee?

Most everyone Alabama plays every year has directly benefitted from Nick Saban being in the SEC.

Auburn. LSU. Even Arkansas for a short while. Why has Tennessee been complete anus for 15 years straight?

Have we not let you in on the multi-step REC strategy?

Pruitt was Stage 3.

Not sure why you think we’ve benefitted. We went undefeated and had a good run of teams pre-Saban and then have gone through three coaches since then.

Fulmer’s gravitational pull is really THAT hard to overcome.

I wouldn't say that Arkansas has benefited one bit.

His recruiting nationally helps other SEC schools get players we would've signed had we not signed other players from out of the region.

I have a suspicion Fulmer ate the most promising candidates.

Wtf did I just read?

In 1999 if Saban doesn't step foot on that corporate jet in Lansing, Michigan for a flight down to BR, you wouldn't be able to find 10 people on the street today that would of even heard of Nick Saban.

Alabama should be kissing LSU and the Dolphins a$$ daily.

I think Saban benefitted by playing in an SEC devoid of talented QBs. Every School you mentioned gave Saban issues when they had a decent QB. Tennessee has been behind at that position for the last 15 years.

It's called Karma. For the treachery of Phil Fulmer.
