He mentioned today with a STRAIGHT face that Bama will compete for NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS in 2 years. I laughed so hard. He got mad a me and is the biggest Vol Hater out there but I still told him he was dilussional.

They better do it in 2 or 3..because odds are saban will be gone in 3 or 4 years!

He might be right. They've got some talent and the man can coach, it only took 4 years at LSU and they were worse off than 'bama is now.

Meyer is competing in his second year. Didn't Tressel win one in his second season. It can happen, especially when you combine coaching ability with the kind of resources that 'bama can muster - and the ability to get more than 100% out of your talent.

I sure hope your friend is wrong though...

Spurrier hasnt come close at SC in 2 years and everyone thought he would. Bama is worse off than SC was.

it would have to be a perfect storm type thing, of course I would bleed from my eyes if that happens

I'd fear Saban more at LSU than Bama due to the fact La has a better recruiting area at home plus right next to Texas recruiting base.

LSU has a monopoly on the whole state, Bama has to go head to head with Auburn

If they don't compete for a NC this year then their fans will be calling for Saban's head.

Sure there are crazy Bama fans, just like Tennessee fans. I had one tell me UT was going to win a NC within 2 years once Cut came back. :crazy:

Seriously, it COULD happen, but I COULD also win the lottery. In my opinion, Bama will need a lot of luck to win one even in the next four years.

It's hard enough to go undeafeted in the SEC and a one loss SEC team needs things to happen for them to get the nod. Look at all the things that had to fall into place for Florida to go this year and not to metion Auburn in '04.

I think Saban will make Bama a very good program, but things like a NC are highly optimistic.

media. They are all calling him {1} liar, {2} weasle, {3}dishonorable job shoping coach and {4} etc. ESPN is especially coming down hard on Saban. This won't hurt him as much in Alabama, but will definitely hurt him out of state.

excellent point rex. I can't think of another state that is as talent-laden as louisiana where there is really only one good football program. Certainly louisiana isn't as talent rich as texas or florida, but there are no university of louisiana's or louisiana a&m's to compete with.

Auburn has made a pretty good name for itself recently, and so saban won't be able to keep all of the bama talent to himself.

You're too reasonable to be a 'tide fan. :)

Saban will make inroads back into LA. He was a very popular figure there with the HS coaches. Watch for 'Bama to start snagging top kids from LA.

I think I just vomited in my mouth...

that may happen, but LSU is on a roll right now, it may work to Saban's advantage that Miles is a complete idiot

Bob Stoops won a NC in his 2nd season at Oklahoma, Jim Tressel won a NC in his 2nd season at Ohio State, and Larry Coker won a NC in his 1st season at Miami (obv. with Butch's players).

Alabama has the talent, if developed, than can win a National Title in 2007 or 2008. Most of you will write me and this off, but you'd foolish to do so.

Why and how does ViA know this, you may be asking yourself?

Because ViA watches more college football than you!

I dunno about a national title, but I do believe Bama, as much as I hate to say it, will be much improved over the next 2-3 years.

CSS used the word slimy to describe him, but he's not the 1st person in the world to change jobs a few times in the last few years. I think these people are jealous they're not making 4 mill. a year. Some of my dads Bama friends were saying he would pay for himself since those BCS bowls pay all those millions of dollars. He didn't have the heart to tell them they have to split that money with Vandy, UK, Ole Miss etc.
