Because our FG kicker missed like 4 or 5 FGs.

I'll take 2011 Saban all day.

It's way too early to say that.



Les Miles wasn't hired by LSU because of his overall record or accolades. He was hired because he took a bottom feeder program and went 2-2 against Mark Stoops' Oklahoma.


His first victory over Oklahoma was in his first season and he went into Norman with a 3-7 team to upset #4 Oklahoma.

And then he did it again the next season against #3 Oklahoma.


Sumrall has multiple victories against top ten teams this year. Golesh has a victory over the top ranked team this year.

A rebuild doesn't happen in one season, and getting an upset win or two doesn't mean the issues that need to be fixed are suddenly no more.


The most important ability to consider when it comes to hiring a Head Coach, especially for programs needing to be built, is have they ever built a program.

Alabama is starting to learn why that is important, and why they should have asked that about DeCline before hiring him. He's never stayed at a school long enough to have a roster of players he recruited.

Lane went 6-6 at Tennessee. Sucked arse at USC, sucked @ the Raiders.
Excelled at Ole Miss.

I bet no one had UCLA in the top 10 this season.

No one had Indiana ever winning anything ...ever.


You have no F"n idea who will win

Is/was Utah really G5? I know they were Mountain West at the time, but not really a good example.

yes, they were G5 at the time Urban was hired, they are P4 now, but one of the reasons he left was to step into the big leagues
