re: Odd but very interesting conversation with a huge Bama fan

Yes, Saban already knew the fan base was highly delusional when he made those comments around “when I came here, fans were just happy to win a game, now we’re not happy to just win a game.” I’m sure a bunch of fans in T town have started to believe that this is their new standard from here on out, but the reality is finding a person with work ethic and attention to detail that Saban has/had is nearly impossible. So yea, I’m sure they won’t fall into irrelevance over night or possibly even in the near future, but your friend is right, going forward (at least in the short term) it will never be enough.
