I mean they will try. But he’s been a legend. Is Bama broken?

Are we going back to pre-Saban Bama?

What does a horseshoe do? Are there any horse socks? Is anyone listening to me?

Did they ever replace the Bear? In the end does it matter? The tide will rise.

The 80’s and 90s Bama was bad. Very bad.

I mean when he decides to retire we will have to hire someone else. It isn't rocket science

Actually after the Bear left, Bama spent a couple of decades doing pretty badly.

But still managed to win a nation Championship so still way better than anything Aggies are able to achieve.

Friendly Aggie reminder:

It’s a tall task to replace a legend. What Saban has accomplished is incredible. Whoever Bama hires has huge shoes to fill.

After Bryant retired, they went 149-56-2 in the 80s and 90s. Dumbass.

yet they still won a NC in 1992 and multiple conference championships..

some teams (looking at you) would be quite happy to just win the division once in two decades

Cfb is broken. Saban came in and bought a bunch of 5*s that took him on a run. He back doored into NC games a couple times and got to play teams like ND that never deserved to be there and even knocked out star QBs to win.

Now everyone can buy players and the players arent really tied to the team anymore and even if you backdoor in you still have to beat multiple good teams to win a NC. No one will luck into having things aligned like Saban did. With new rules and protocols teams are now having their hands full will bottom level teams.

The top teams will still separate themselves but the top 30-50 teams will beat each other up. I like having the conference competitive again. In the 90's going undefeated in the sec was as big and impressive as winning a NC. Recently it didn't mean near as much. All a team had to do was win the games they should and beat maybe 1 top team and they were undefeated.

Every coach that coached a season between Bryant and Saban had at least one 10 win season. And 10 win seasons used to be harder than now due to less games. Alabama was inconsistent, but they weren’t dog shite.

Perkins 1985 9-2-1
Perkins 1986 10-3
Curry 1988 9-3
Curry 1989 10-2
Stallings 1991 11-1
Stalkings 1992 13-0
Stallings 1993 9-3-1
Stallings 1994 12-1
Stallings 1996 10-3
Dubuse 1999 10-3
Francione 2002 10-3
Shula 2005 10-2
Saban 2008-present 10-14 wins per season

Even during the darkest 23 years of Alabama football, they had 12 seasons with 9 wins or more and nine 10 win or better seasons. Even with the likes of Perkins, Dubose, Francione, Curry and Shula.
