re: Tidbit about Saban at LSU

Besides his 13-1 record and NC title his other years at LSU were ok 10-3 Was best year after that

Go back and look at LSU's records the previous 2 years prior to 2000. More than that, go back and look at what LSU did during the entire 90's decade.

Saban changed an entire culture here. LSU's facilities were shite prior to 2000. TAF was a joke prior to 2000. LSU couldn't sign the elite players in the New Orleans metro area prior to 2000.

He won a SEC title in his 2nd season after the dreadful 90's. He won a SEC and National Title in his 4th year.

I know, I know, he probably shouldn't have had Mauck still in the game late against Florida in 2002. But... had Mauck not broken his leg, 2002 would easily have been a 10+ win season for LSU.

He was mentally gone in 2004. He always wanted a NFL gig, and that was pretty much all that was on his mind in 2004.

His 2 year stint in Miami cured him of that itch. That Miami stint is what has helped make him be the best of the best at Alabama. H
