Paul Finebaum Names Best SEC Program After Nick Saban's Retirement

HISTORICAL ARCHIVE, MINIMUM USAGE FEE APPLIES;

ESPN's Paul Finebaum is now crowning the new king of the SEC after Nick Saban's departure...

quote:
"I think as of today, Georgia is the best program in the SEC," Finebaum said, via Athlon. "They have the best coach in the SEC, and we've never been able to say that until this moment, but they do and I think they are among the many beneficiaries of Saban leaving. Just from a recruiting standpoint. They've already taken perhaps the most impactful coach from Saban's staff and Kirby Smart knows the Alabama playbook and he knows a lot of people there."

Wabbit7•28 months

Really went out on a limb with that one. And you didn’t even say which program it was in the article.

And this is some mystery? Can’t stand that nerd. Tell us something we don’t know Pencil neck Paul.

CanebreakCajun•28 months

Once again, Paul really taking a risk with this one.

luciouslou•28 months

That was the best program before saban left. Not after

DoubleDown•28 months

Interesting. Didn’t Bama just beat them in SEC Championship? 27-24 baby. Also, isn’t Kirby like 1-4 or against Bama?
Bad take.

CanebreakCajun•28 months

UGA has won 2 of the last National Titles. Bad take.

lsusa•28 months

One team has won two of the last three national championships. The other team needed a mulligan to get an undeserved invitation to the playoffs this season, and hasn’t won a legitimate national title since 2015.

UGA was already the top program before Saban left, and had been for at least a year.

vodkacop•28 months
