Saban under fire for losing national championship

[Kaepsknee]

About 90% of the people I work and coach with are die hard Bama fans, even the women. They are in that "meh" phase right now as fans.

You really old Doogs remember how it felt right before James quit. Us Duck fans had it after 2014. Fortunately it looks like we aren't trying to wait 25 years to rebound.

They love Saban, but the Championship or nothing part of the fan spectrum is a terrible place to be for everyone involved.

Every middle aged dude that's one of my investors is a big 10 fan.

I suppose I'm a Michigan State fan but I don't really care.

But I get street cred because my Gramps was the alumni director back in the day. So their dads all knew him.

Lots of dads in the house.

Was it the Brown one?

I'm looking at that post and either I was responding to a different thread or I was really drunk and confused because it has absolutely no bearing on the current conversation.

Brown Dad I meant.

"The below table is in alphabetical order by school". Saban is rated a 0--which means untouchable

"The below table is in alphabetical order by school". Saban is rated a 0--which means untouchable

Overrated -- Nick Saban at Alabama: "Nick's got a lot of advantages. In [my conference], you could take five or six of us and get there a month before the season and win 12 games. There is a little f---ing machine underneath that stadium, and they grow them there."
Overrated -- Nick Saban at Alabama: "We're going to have a war. You're going to have a howitzer, and I have a musket, and then every time we'll say that you're brilliant."

Underrated -- Chris Petersen at Washington: "He's not at Alabama, USC, Ohio State or Texas, but everywhere he goes, he makes an immediate impact. He does stand out to me wherever he's gone. The longer you coach, some of the best coaches we ever coach against people don't write about. Who's to say these guys aren't the very best?"

I mean, these quotes aren't wrong--but who built the "howitzer" or "machine", as those coaches put it, at Bama? Saban doesn't get credit for that? 75% of success in cfball is built from February-July. Saban isn't the best Xs and Os guy, but he kicks everyone's ass at the behind the scenes stuff.

Bama sucked for years before Saban got there.

Case closed.
