'18 LA CB/WR Eddie Smith

[Ron Swanson]

He’s 67. 11 years ago they were saying the same about Kansas State’s HC.

Anyone know how many power 5 HC’s are 70+? Curious

Will be more relevant in 3 years.

This is from last summer and is for all of fbs, but it looks like bill Snyder is the only one at 77. Saban would be the second oldest p5 and 5th oldest overall if correct.

Thanks :hi:

 

[Sleegro]

Thanks :hi:

Yer welcome. Was a good question and somewhat surprising answer. I don't know why I expected there to be more coaches older than him.

 

[LaagerVol]

I loved the comments about the former staff vs the current one

Very telling. The team didn’t believe in their coach at all.

Really hope we land Smith

That makes me so sad.

Saban is pushing 70. No idea how much longer he hangs around.

Saban is turning "x" this year, no way he sticks around much longer

-next year-

Saban is turning "x" this year, no way he sticks aroun

-next year-

Saban is "X" years old, no way he is there for this class to graduate

That makes me so sad.

It was hugely disappointing but obvious the entire season. A good chunk of those guys had completely checked out.

Lol. The guy has to retire at some point. I'm just saying he's one of the oldest coaches in the nation in one of the highest stress jobs in the country. And Saban is an anal grinder so it's not like he's a laid back dude.

I think they checked out after the a&m game last year when half the team was already hurt and their miracle run had ended.

That sounds incredibly painful.

and I dont think he is a guy to give up with a job half done. now anyone else would consider what he has done enough, but I don't see it from Saban. imo. It would take a perfect season type of thing to get him to consider it imo.

also Saban looks pretty young for his age.

Bill Snyder in 2009 (69 depending on the math)

looks like he can keep ticking

 

[SLICKYINC]

Bill Snyder has been holding them hostage forever. That dude won't leave because they won't agree to make his son head coach. Even though his son has never coached anywhere or for anyone else but daddy.

Neither did us "negavols" 😎

 

[head1]

Saban isn’t retiring until he’s sitting at the top alone.

Saban prolly should have a contract with Just For Men - :ermm:

1 more year then

Still laughing at “Anal Grinder”

Snyder had already retired, K St. once again began to suck and they begged him to come back. Snyder came back and they started winning again. I don't know how that is holding K St. hostage? K St. should get on their knees, thank Snyder and beg him to coach them until he dies, imo.

Saban has hair plugs. Bet he dyes his hair too.

K state Alumni and fans disagree about that now. They are ready for him to go and every year he waits to let them know if he's staying or leaving until its way to late interview a coach for recruiting purposes. This year he tried the whole "hire my son" thing. The powers to be said no so he waited until it was to late to say he was staying. The past is just that, past.

Were you one of the fans that wanted Phil gone?

Well, they shouldn't have begged him to stop their downward spiral into Sucktown. He is their greatest coach and probably deserves a statue in front of their stadium.

Although, I don't know what wanting Phil fired has to do with this? No, I didn't want him fired, not yet, he deserved another year, maybe 2. Yes, I thought Phil had gotten somewhat satisfied and/or complacent. He made a bad OC hire or needed another year to get it running correctly. But, knowing what I know now, Phil was about to bring in a really good recruiting class. Would have loved to see what Boyd would have done as a Vol.

He does die his hair. I've seen him between treatments on TV.
