A thread to discuss if Saban (GOAT) will make it to 10. Yes or no? Explain your reasoning. If not 10, how many do you predict he ends up with?

I think he gets to 9 before retiring. Wins 2 out of the next 4.

I think he definitely gets to ten. I see him coaching another 7-10 years. He's just wired differently. I can't imagine him retiring and sitting around all offseason and just doing commentary during the season. He's a machine.

Probably. Nick just recruits at an elite level. That's where it all starts.

A more fun question is will Coach O get one more championship before Nick gets three more?

Really just depends. He’s In good health now but grandpa time catches up quick. I doubt he would want a Bobby Bowden type situation developing down the road.

frick. I hope not but you gotta imagine he gets at least 1 with Bryce.

Nick is 69.

I’d put his o/u age to retire at 75.5

So 6 or 7 more years.

Man I’d put their o/u on nattys at 2.5

If it were my money I would take the over and I fricking hate it.

Nick is the greatest defensive mind we’ve ever seen at the collegiate level. Pure dominance for a decade and did you see their offense with Devonta this past year? They were making Ohio state look like a job defense.

Oh it was just the ______ OC.

That’s what we say every year before the dude goes on to be a HC.

His coaching turnover but stability is insane. It defies logic.

Nick just keeps winning, keeps out recruiting everyone and stays on the cutting edge of the game.

You’re not alone in this sentiment.

Let's analyze his record.

He's coached college football (excluding Toledo) since 1995-04 and 2007-present.

Championships and appearances:
2003 LSU
2009 Bama
2011
2012
4th place finish: 2014
2015
Runner-up: 2016
2017
Runner-up: 2018
2020


He's visited the BCS/CFP 9 out of 14 seasons he's been at Alabama, and of those visits he's won 6. (Does not include his 1st at LSU.) Out of his 14 seasons, he won a championship in 43% of them.

So it's safe to say he'll take 4 out of 10 championships if he's around for 10 more seasons. That's a long tenure, though.

I think he'll get to 10.

Tiger Woods. It was inevitable that he would catch Jack's majors record.

Until it wasn't.

National Championships are hard, and often require a certain ball bounce, a bit of luck, and help from other teams.

I've said this for many years: all of the championships since about 2015 have been pure gravy. I like gravy.

Talent is definitely there. Will the coaching be there.
