    In Saban's early Bama days, his teams would run the ball down your throat and laugh while you were coughing.  They can't do that anymore.

    I think they can run on Michigan, they have had some success running it...

    When I first read the title I thought you were saying it was a Bama intra squad game. 

    I'm still pulling for Michigan. I wouldn't pull for Bama if they were playing the Taliban.  

    Yeah I agree, but not a harbaugh fan, really dont want either...pulling for Washington to win it all...sigh

    Funny because as I was typing that, I could envision EVERYONE typing back "A&M." Jimbo will always be that one anomaly.

    When Saban won his first championship at bammer in 2009, was it with the same two coordinators he hired in 2007?

    What about Tubbs in 2004 vs. 1999?

    Point is I agree with you. Coaching matters. I believe in due time, Freeze could make a move or two with his two coordinators.

    But you can't win 10+ games with the scrubs Gus & Harsin left us.

    So I don't mind Freeze with his entire focus on recruiting.

    Fair point, but the road is actually littered with coaches that can recruit but can't coach, Napier anyone???? That is one of my points, Saban is not only a good recruiter he is a good manager, he seems to do well in getting assistant coaches that fit his system, so it's the whole package that you are looking for. I never said anything about winning 10 games but I do expect the team to show up and actually compete for EVERYGAME, NMSU and Maryland really rub me the wrong way. 

    At least for me I find it concerning that he doesnt seem to want to win every game, just doesnt seem to bother him, that wasn't and isn't the case with Saban or even Kirby...again I guess we will see and hope for the best, I just don't see any intensity coming from him at all....

    There will be more defections, but between few and none that Freeze was a part of in recruiting himself. He is a relationship HC who rarely loses a high school commit.

    Your statements make sense if AU had hired someone other than Freeze.

    Freeze was hand-picked by Yella and his posse. He is here to stay.

    You will have to pry him from their cold, dead hands.

    Reeling off multi-consecutive Top 7 classes and it will be impossible at AU to continue to have near .500 records. Since Dye, every HC other than Harsin has won at least 11 games. Not easy to do, but Dye, Bowden, Tubbs, Chizik and Gus all won 11 games.

    Plus as I've previously mentioned, there will eventually be a changing of the guard in this state. When Father Time comes for him, Freeze will have AU a Top 3-5 recruiting class every season.

    Eh having a top recruiting class doesnt always translates to more wins, I mean it should be based on where we are now but doesn't mean you win championships...and I'd like to win championships. You only have to look at ATM to prove that...coaching matters, recruiting matters you need both.
