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

She's correct. There has to be a reset of expectations before a legit coach will touch that job. Take Norvell at FSU. He wouldn't have survived after Bobby Bowden. It took him years to to get that program where he wanted it and the next Alabama coach just isn't going to get that kind of time. They are not going to tolerate 3-loss seasons for the next 4-5 years.
