Saban s first year at Bama

[supersaiyanshel]

Saban also "canned" his OC his first season.

History may portray it as Applewhite leaving to go to Texas, but he was very much pushed out by Saban.

 

[Tank Canes ‘92]

Saban was 7-6 his first year a Bama losing 4 out of his last 5 games.The next year he was 12-2 and his third year he won thr NC.He came in as an experienced College Coach and NFL coach who had previously won the NC at LSU.We need to be patient with Coach Diaz.He is smart enough to get it done.Patience will be rewarded.

You can not be serious. You’re comparing Manny, whose only real achievements have been designing and procuring jewelry, with Nick Saban? Saban had already won a NC at LSU before he was hired at Alabama.

 

[Gi0logy]

Yup, OP is right.

Just like Al Golden's first season here at 6-6, all we have to do is be patient and every coach will eventually become Nick Saban.

Exactly. Golden was a year away from really turning it around. We all saw how good of a coach he was. Blake was just too impatient.

We just need to be patient and give Manny at least 8-9 years before we jump to any conclusions.

Up those meds, brother.

Please sir NEVER use Nick Saban in reference to Manny Diaz. Saban is an elite coach and Diaz should be on the next season of Friday Night Tykes. The U is a sh*t show in the coaching department.

You're right! Fans often forget that Manny came her with plenty of experience of being a HC and already won a NC before coming here

Would have been funnier if you went with Sabann’s first four years at Michigan State:
7-5-1
6-6
7-5
6-6

Are you familiar with what was going on at MSU at that time?

 

[Consigliere]

Yup, OP is right.

100% of Coaches compared to Saban turn out like Saban!

 

[We the Boss]

All of you are missing the real lesson in this thread.

OP is trying to signal to CiS that he has access to the highest grade THC in Florida Because you’d have to be high as **** to make this comparison.

Congrats on your connect OP.

You literally said the difference yourself.

No idea. Was just trying to help out Manny’s excuse department

Saban was already a proven college football coach. He won a NC at LSU. Also had success at Michigan St. So it is disrespectful to compare his first year at Baga to Manny’s first year as a HC here.

MSU was having “issues” before Saban took the job. Not just one issue either.

Yeah, I find all of Manny’s comparison excuses nauseating.

 

[Consigliere]

Yeah, I find all of Manny’s comparison excuses nauseating.

I am unclear why they don't compare Manny to other first time coaches who started poorly and went on to fail miserably. I assure you more coaches fail than end up like Saban.

 

[TreOFive]

Anyone comparing manalo to saben is a fuggin idiot

 

[Dwinstitles]

What was that first class ranked? Dude got hella reinforcements year two.

 

[Chewburka]

Look at there first seasons as hc not saban now compared to manny now.

 

[ddann]

Al Golden was 6-6 in his first year

So the takeaway is that Manny will most likely end up having a head coaching career similar to either Nick Saban or Al Golden.

Hmm...I wonder which one it will be.

 

[rgonzalez9824]

Here we go with this again. how much time does he need ? 10 years ?
