You kinda just tanked your "experience" argument. Freshman and sophomores are better than experienced juniors and seniors from others programs that had been recruiting well for many more years?

Roger doing his absolute best to avoid answering your question. What is it he likes to call people who do such a thing?

Ah yes,

I'm not rejecting it.

I'm just not trying to say that it's enough to propel a medicore team into one that can run the SEC regular season schedule.

You're trying to attribute everything that Saban's accomplished to anything but the influence that he imparts upon his team.

Throw in a few recruits who can contribute right away, and of course it can. And it did

Absolutely not

How much did that influence matter in 2007?

I don’t want to pretend anything.

I want to provide you with context with how and why Saban went 6-6 in 2007, since you seem hellbent on obfuscation in order to try and have some sort of GOTCHA moment.

Hard to say. In 2007 Saban could've very well coached a fundamentally 5 win team to a 7 win season. He beat a ranked Arkansas and Tennessee.

The guy before he got fired for a reason; because they were declining. In any event, there's really no way to know what they would've done without him because we don't have access to a parallel universe.

I'm not going to fault any coach that hasn't had a full offseason to implement his coaches, all of his plays/verbiage, instill his culture, get rid of bad apples. Once he's had that time, it's all fair game.

Great coaches will make an immediate impact once they've had time, and they don't need 3-4 years to do it.

Alabama didn't vacate those games until 2009 and it had absolutely no bearing on the 2007 team

If you were actually knowledgeable this would have been obvious

You need to go back and do your homework.

Alabama wasn't short on scholarships and finished 10th in 2007 recruiting

The new guy is kicking your arse Roger. It's an absolute bloodbath.

How embarrassing.

Riddle us this Roger....Do you think the NCAA came in, completed their investigation in a timely manner and then handed out punishment in 2009? No, no they didn't. They investigated for several years, just like they normally do.

The stigma of the NCAA investigation hit that program in 2006.

Ah, we've gone from immediate impact to 2-3 years now.

Cool.

Alabamas defensive rank went from 31 in 2007 to 3rd in 2009. It's pretty obvious where he devoted his recruiting efforts. Even Saban couldn't do it in one season

Unlike you, I'm old enough to remember

The violations included 2007 season under Saban so no, Alabama wasn't under investigation

You are an embarrassment

No, it's exactly how I think. You believe the NCAA giving punishment in 2009 means the program wasn't affected during the years the investigation was going on.

The fact an LSU fan is saying this after what's happened with Will Wade is just plain sad.

You are still doing this?

Wow okay.

So you wanted to talk about Shula (lol) and the 2005 team, but conveniently fail to mention Shula’s 2006 team. Or the 2004 team.

Come on little buddy, let’s dance.

Alabama was put on probation in 2002 as well. The fact you're trying to paint these sanctions as having no effect on the subsequent seasons is the only embarrassment.

Par for the course unfortunately.

The only fake news is you posturing like NCAA probation doesn't cause a ripple effect that lasts for several years.

Sad.
