That team stacked with SABANS recruits?


the stacked part was largely over by last year, someone did a breakdown last year and about 60% of the offensive production was from Miles recruits. Defense was about 50/50.

Who recruited Bama's offensive line, quarterback, running back, and best defensive player? Selective memory is great isn't it?

Why can't Saban tell the truth?

Why can't you read the grocery ads properly? Your Massengale's Disposable Douche is on sale today at Billy Joe-Bob's in Opelika - Red Light Special.

im going to laugh my arse of when saban dumps yall for more money


Might just happen after this season. Mark Emmert wants Saban real bad up at Washington. UW will come up with the money. Why wouldn't he want the job? Beautiful part of the country, no pressure and no rednecks to deal with. That's a no-brainer.........

Because Miles is a competitor and Lil' Nicky is a carpetbagger and a hired assassin. Simply put, Miles cares more about his teams and his players. Nicky cares for himself and his legacy.

Having said all that I got to say the streak ends this year! Thanks for the coach. We love him and he ain't leaving now. He's 57 yrs old and he's already tried the NFL. There is no stepping up after Alabama. He's at the top. Why would he leave?


You have no idea do you.

Bama is a stepping stone. Saban might stay there a bit longer than usual, but he won't be there as long as most Bama fans believe.

He will get bored with it. The guy likes a challenge and will seek out the opportunities. In five years, most of the Bama administration will had enough of Saban anyway.

With a competitor like Saban, you really think he will let is DISMAL performance in the NFL stand without another shot at it?

Enjoy what you have while you can.

Keep this in mind: In Saban's eyes, this is his program, not Bama's. Keep calling him Bear Jr. and likewise and watch him explode.

I think you have to understand the man...he is very driven to accomplish big things, like turning around LSU and resurrecting Bama from the dead. He also, and this is my opinion, is basically an unhappy person who doesn't really like other people, especially those who don't think as "deep" as he does. i.e. rabid fans and boosters who want unlimited access.

So...once he either a) accomplishes the big task (lsu), or b) realizes the task can't be accomplished (miami), he loses interest and looks for the next big thing. Personally I've always thought Penn State would be his next stop since it is close to home....could be wrong though

I would tell all the smack-talking Bama fans to act like they've been there, but.....then again....it has been such an awful long time.

Why can't Saban refrain from lying about other teams while trying to recruit impressionable high schoolers?

Petty?
Just can't help but to lie?
Dirty recruiter?
Narcissistic Personality Disorder?
God complex?
Napoleon syndrome?


Or is it simply because Bama just doesn't have the goods to out-recruit LSU without resorting to chicken shite tactics?

You know there's a funny thing about that little white speck on top of chicken shite, but that little elfin speck is chicken shite, too, aight?

"I criticize Miles all the time. That is the joy of being an armchair QB. But that doesn't mean I don't like Miles, or think I could actually do a better job. Like most LSU fans, I love Miles and have come to the conclusion that the anti-Miles voices are limited to a handful of bloggers and two handfuls of pesky Alabama fans. But given the anti-Miles story line, it may be that innocent armchair QB's like me, are being mistaken for Les Miles haters, or Saban lovers. I think it might be time for the press to deploy some subtlety in their reporting, and tease out the armchair QB's ( who see it as our patriotic duty to constantly coach the coach, the way coaches constantly coach their players, in order to improve their performance) from the actual anti-Miles contingent."

Les Miles - best LSU coach ever. Just look at the record...

"Why can't Saban yada, yada, yada....

Why can't the majority of the LSU fans tell the truth, Your green as hell with envy that CNS is the Alabama coach now. You would trade your coach in a New York minute.

Get over it!

Mudhole is coming and I can't wait to here THE hat's news conference afterwards. RTR!

Ill tell you the truth Dip shite! Even if Bama were to win tommorow it doesnt mean shite for us. Florida lost 4 games last year after a national championship season and look where they are this year. Right back where they belong after a hangover year. Exactly where we will be next year if we have another slip up this year with a brand new QB because our starter was an idiot and got kicked off the team. Meanwhile Bama next year will be in that postion loosing a ton of leadership. Whos gonna start? Star Jackson LMAO! Better enjoy it while you can and hope Saban can somehow avoid his yearly screw up.

Years with less than 3 losses with SABANS recruits:

Les Miles 3/3 - 100%

Nick Saban 1/5 - 20%

One guy has been 5 times better than the other with Saban's players.
