Exactly. It is more an indication of where we will be the next decade.
Outside of lucky hires (the Pinkel's of the world) you are as good as your job is.

Saban usually makes one bone-headed decision per season. It usually becomes the catalyst behind the "game of the year" or the other team's "play of the century."
Miles makes tons of boneheaded mistakes.
There's no doubt he is a good coach, but that dude has squandered a metric frickton of talent and slicing it any way other than that is simply not true.

You don't think Saban has been bailed out by having the best talent? He's made some pretty bone headed decisions in recent past too.
People give Saban the benefit of the doubt (and rightfully so). People don't give Miles the benefit of the doubt, again in part because of the situation he walked into.

I've got nothing at all against em--they're a great program--but how is a job at FSU any better than one at Georgia, Notre Dame, or South Carolina?
Georgia - no SEC for Florida State
Notre Dame - muuuuuuuuuuuch more talent surrounding Tallahassee compared to South Bend
South Carolina -

People give Saban the benefit of the doubt because Alabama is 72-9 since 2008 with three national championships to boot, brah.

Come back to me when USC and or UCLA make it as far as Oregon did last season, again. USC will continue to be worshipped by the media, but they have a cultural problem and until the quit recruiting 5* drama queens they want do shite.

You're a moron.
Again, USC runs that conference and will be back on top within the next two or three seasons.

People always say this about the big programs, and it's just not true at all. What about the 90s for LSU with Hallman and Dinardo?

Y'all have put more players in the NFL since 2000 than any other SEC school, I'd bet.
While Miles has won a lot, he backed into a national championship seven years ago and has done jack shite since in terms of the national scale.

Posts like these are why people roll their eyes at Alabama fans.

So Oregon is the new king of the Pac 12?
The same eight to ten teams who have always won will always win. Get over it.
Posted on 2/25/15 at 4:12 pm to Tornado Alley
Yeah Oregon is about to take a step back, most people expect it.
Posted on 2/25/15 at 4:13 pm to GalvoAg
Nu uhh. USC and UCLA are dead and Oregon is the new king of the Pac 12.

They're an SEC program in the ACC and a state loaded with talent.

Yeah and we've done very well for ourselves. The last few years we've lost a ton of juniors which had hurt a good bit. Hopefully that's over.

If Miles backed in then so did Saban in 11 and 12.
You're also completely ignoring our 2011 season, which was "nationally relevant" no matter how you want to slice it.
We haven't won as many titles as we could have because we have one of the 3 or 4 best coaches of all time in our division. That sucks but it doesn't make Miles a "worse" coach by any stretch.
I'm starting to really get the feeling that you don't understand college football very well.
Miles is, by any metric, a very good coach. He's not quite an all time great, but he's much better than most coaches and any school should be happy to hire someone of his caliber if a vacancy comes along.

Oregon is the reigning king of the Pac-12. It's not debatable!
USC lost to Boston College last season.
