There's a reason why Saban was an "ok" coach at Mich St, a "good" coach at LSU a near "unbeatable" coach at Bama.

Follow the money.

And this is why we had to hire and stay with E as OC.

I feel your pain. But history proves another blueblood should dethrone Bama.. Who will it be? Nobody knows. Bama's record against other bluebloods isn't so good. Saban really boosted that programs stats.

Not trying to be argumentative but I believe CEO has many more than 15. There are 10 on field coaches listed, 10 analysts, 5 Strength and conditioning Coaches assigned to football, and that does not count football admin staff or football recruiting staff.
I do realize that Saban has even more, but we are working on catching up.

That's my stance also.

We have one problem, our compliance is one step beyond just "independent". They are adversarial in the fact that grey areas are the same as black... to be avoided, not exploited.

Pretty sure these numbers aren't accurate. The last data I saw showed Alabama with roughly the same Number of analysts as LSU and Georgia, and less than Auburn.

We're talking total number of staff members...

Analysts are one piece

Would you be complaining if it were LSU instead of Bama?

No you wouldn’t be complaining, you would be saying tough shite to other programs.

We finally are. We had dropped far behind on the line of scrimmage. And running back. And QB.

The freshman backs get is close. Getting Chaison back and a year in the program gets us to,close to,parity on the D line. Still pretty far behind on the O line.

I think we have fallen behind in strength, quickness and agility training. I also think we tip our plays to,Bama. Several,Bama players over the last three or four years have said they know every play.

Tua puts them at another level. We finally have a QB pipeline in recruiting

The NCAA has enough control as it is. The real issue is the nepotism with the NCAA and SEC paying favorites. I mean as soon as Will Wades name popped up in the FBI's case in college basketball recruiting the NCAA jumped in and started inquires concerning Wades recruiting tactics and actions. Mostly, I'm sure, motivated by the high ranked recruiting class he signed. But Saban signs the consensus number 1 class every single year and the NCAA doesn't bat an eye. The NCAA is as dirty and corrupt as the Mob was in the early 1900's. It's just organized crime of the 21st century.

Respectfully, Bama has enjoyed 2 of the greatest coaches of all time in my 52 years.

They own us...85% of time... I'm sick of it...as are most fan bases because bama fans believe this is their birthright to be on top.

Dont give me a strawman's argument...

isn't there a saying about success....
MIRROR what other successful people do, and YOU WILL BE SUCCESSFUL as well?

hmmmmmmm, if Bama, has 2 staffs, one would ask, why don't we??? If we can pay ex coaches millions, don't you think we have money somewhere to come up with this strategy as well?

hmmm

I don’t think there Is a loophole. Only your 9 full time assistants are allowed to recruit

I do believe we have tipped our hat too much. But I would not be surprised if they stole our signals and if there is a mole in our program spying and stealing 411 to be handed over to them. That and so many shadow agents watching every move during the game and analyzing every millisecond of video.

They are not entitled to shiiciit! In fact their existence is an insult to themselves and God himself. That is why they are sub human Gumps. The SEC office needs to be out of that horrible state of schiite. Then someone with balls at the NCAA once is Emmert is gone get them for violations that stick.

But this time get them good! You realize they only got 20 schollies reduced and a bowl ban. Yeah the PR hit and probation tanked them for 2-3 years. But, they were off of probation in five years.

They should have suffered 40-50 schollies reduced and hit hard again after the textbook scandal - not just vacated wins. It was supposed to be set up where for the rest of the first decade of the 2000s they did NOT have a chance to compete for titles as punishment. Death penalty was never going to happen for them.

But there should have been more stringent penalties. Saban never would have ended up there if what should have happened did happen as far as severity of probation and penalties. CFB, NCAA the schools themselves they have nothing to blame but themselves. They had the demon by the neck and let it off the hook!!!
