He’ll be gone long before that deal expires. The new landscape of college football does not suit Saban’s style.

I’d say it probably enhances his style

Can't wait until he turns into Bobby Bowden the last few years of that contract and starts going 8-5 or 7-6 every season.

Will never happen. If he can't win 10 he'll just die.

Bama will go 9-3 in 2028, and Saban will wander off into the woods without saying a word. They'll find him dead in the wilderness in April when the snows melt away.

Saban has been the most adaptable coach in the last 20 years. We’ve seen coaches go from elite to laughing stock because they refused to change their style from what previously worked and were left in the dust. Saban has shown he will adapt and dominate any landscape.

This is wishful thinking at best. The new climate favors Saban, where he can basically cherry pick the best proven talent in the country instead of cherry picking the best *potential* talent in the country as recruits.

Surely at some point he becomes JoePa/Bowden right? A grumpy unrelatable old man trying to recruit and coach 18 year Olds he doesn't understand or like.

Well deserved. And again they will be in the playoff. Can anyone name 4 teams with a better shot than Bama??

Doubtful. He’s been pretty great at adapting.

Barring freak injuries they probably be in the title game again. On a 100% related note I have zero excitement for this CFB season

Dude. How much more do you need to accomplish? Just hang it up already and go enjoy the rest of your life with your family coach!
