The best coaches will want to go there and prove that they are the best coach in Bama's football history.


Bama's track record of hiring HC's hasn't been that impressive. After Bryant, there have been:
Ray Perkins
Bill Curry
Gene Stallings
Dubose
Price
Dennis Franchione
Mike Shula

Of those only Stallings was above mediocre. It also warrants mentioning that had Rich Rod not turned Bama down Saban wouldn't have been offered (someone correct me if this wasn't the case).

In the 28 year period from '81 (Bryant's last SEC title) until '09 (Nick's first), Bama won only 3 SEC titles.

Man - that is a $hitty list - Curry and Dubose were serviceable - really only Stallings leaps out as a top tier coach, before the ALMFWV.
