Stop obsessing, R.A.Taylor21. Off-topic shitting on threads to sate your obsession isn't winning you any e-friends.

Response posts, in other threads, is not the way to defend your battered honor. Again, some advice, stop typing and post .gifs.

Huey Long made LSU.

Nick Saban's contributions will be honored next summer when he is enshrined in the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame.

A football program is much more than mythical national titles. Some of us enjoy our team's traditions and history and genuinely love our school.

We aren't fans merely so we can huff and puff about how our team has the mostest titles in the history of ever. Not saying you do but more than a few do...

Yeah, right. Huey Long never even beat Tulane when he was the coach at LSU.

Yes, he did. Tennessee's success is pretty much attached that guy. His name alone supplements all of our good memories. When a Tennessee fan thinks of the name Fulmer, he or she envisions the glory days. That's how he wound up as the AD- Joe Sixpack and Son up on Moonshine Mountain thought he could resurrect the good old times of Tennessee football.

Anyways, this was an intriguing discussion. I'm about to fall asleep. I enjoyed our conversation.


Hope you are sleeping well. When you wake up, think more rationally about things.

You being only 23 years old, a good proverb to memorize would be this one:

Even though I was born yesterday, football didn't start yesterday.

Tennessee had a very rich football history long before Fill My Belly Fulmer stole the HC job from a man while he was hospitalized.

Fulmer didn't in any way make Tennessee who they were. Tennessee already had a formidable reputation long before Fulmer, unlike LSU before Saban.

Saban did, in fact, make LSU. LSU was a nobody with no history that amounted to anything on a national level, and not much of one on a regional level, before Saban.

That wasn't the case with Tennessee before Fulmer, and certainly not with Alabama before Saban.

What is the point of this?

He wasn't at LSU long enough. He was well on his way to building something special at LSU and bolted.

Success in college football is about 90% recruiting. And 10% coaching. Whether ithe school is just great and the kids just come there or they are primarily bought and paid for is up for your interpretation. I look at it simply as this. If Gus Malzahn and staff were coaching at Alabama with Alabama Recruits how much success would he have and if Saban was at Auburn how much success would he have. I think you know the answer.

Summary:

Coaches don't matter, only players do and every coach would have Saban's success if only they were at Alabama.

I don't agree with either one of your theories.

If what you say is true, why doesn't every coach just out-recruit Saban? No one is preventing them from doing so.

If Saban was at auburn, he would have a stocked, 4 and 5 star laden roster just like he does at Alabama so, not sure what your point is.

Malzhan, if he were at Alabama, would have probably about the same record he does at auburn. He is who he is and the school he is at can't change that.

Were you born in 1995 or something? Bama won national championships with 4 different coaches before Nick Saban ever arrived in the SEC and has won at least one conference championship in every decade of its existence. We had a winning record against every single SEC team, most by a wide margin, before he ever showed up, and had won more conference and national championships than any other team in the SEC - again by a wide margin.



Congrats on all those “tallest midget in the room” championships from before anyone else gave a damn about football.

the all-time record prior to TN's death was neck-and-neck.


not so

Not sure what year you figure UT died but in 2007, Saban's first year, Alabama had won 45 games, UT 37, and even that was due to UT's streak during Alabama's NCAA trouble. Even poor Mike Shula's program got ncaa probation for players selling textbooks.

Wonderful to see Alabama fans have LSU on their mind a month before we play

And some of your fans still insist we’re not rivals Give me a hug buddy, we knew you cared!!

Also, amazing how you never see Alabama fans start these kinds of threads about Tennessee. Why is that I wonder?
