Nick Saban was 7-6 his first year..signed the number signed a top 5 class..two years later national champsMichigan was 5-7 the year before Harbaugh arrived and 10-3 in his first season. And that was before the portal.
Coaching is more important than recruiting.
Completely unrelated to this thread. You know. Like totally, completely unrelated...
Was Saban an elite coach prior to Alabama? Are you implying he and Mario have anything in common? If so @WaterburyCane we need an emergency recount.Nick Saban was 7-6 his first year..signed the number signed a top 5 class..two years later national champs
Recruiting> Message board experts..we’ve seen too many of the elite coaches..Saban & Kirby allude to this…Coker won a championship..and y’all say he was corch
Nope. Not implying that. But Talent and recruiting/evaluations is more important. That’s all I’m saying. Leave Saban out and insert Kirby. He was nobody until he got his chance. The best teams in the Country competing at the highest levels are annually the most talented teams. They have difference making guys..we don’t have that yet.Was Saban an elite coach prior to Alabama?

Ok well insert Jimbo Fisher instead of Kirby Smart and add in terrible game day decision making with a horrible scheme.Nope. Not implying that.

Jimbo is the perfect example..he won a natty..because of TALENT..that’s pretty much making my point. He could never find another Winston at QB..again recruiting/evaluations & talent.Ok well insert Jimbo Fisher instead of Kirby Smart and add in terrible game day decision making with a horrible scheme.
It is an election year. The primaries are coming up soon.The mope category candidates have already been picked.
I think the record is more indicative of what the program had become overall…this is a protect I did a few years back that I want the mopes around here to do..go look at recruiting classes from 2015-20..do a “where are they now test”..include the guys we thought were studs out of HS who we latter asked “WTF is Robert Knowles playing over him”..”how is steed playing over brooks”..”why isn’t kosi playing over Malik”..pope, lingard etc etc..include the guys who left as well recently in the TP..Mello brinson..K smith..Jake Garcia..you’ll notice a pattern
Evaluations
Recruiting
Talent acquisition
This are the proven roads to success
Jumbo was a head coach for 13 years, 7 of them at fsu. He had Winston for 3 years. He's now fired. If we gotta hope Mario gets lucky with a qb talent to win, we're screwed. I'd rather be Washington than Michigan.Jimbo is the perfect example..he won a natty..because of TALENT..that’s pretty much making my point.

Look idk what MC will do once he gets the talent/depth level where it needs to be. That remains to be seen. I did see him win 2 conference titles out west & we saw him go into the horseshoe with a less talented roster and win in a pretty commanding fashion as well. There are plenty of good coaches all over America. The difference between that and very very few at the top..just check recruiting rankings & NFL draft production
I patrol Town Hall. I'm keenly aware of this.It is an election year. The primaries are coming up soon.
