saban retirement?

[BIG BOI 23]

im not saying its gonna happen but just give it a couple days and see if these gumps piss him off enough

urban just kicked his ass again, oregon looked as impressive as they ever have, tcu looked like they would of kicked bama's ass, with harbaugh joining the party, and saban realizing he might have 2 lame ass coordinators that cant get the job done against the best of the best in these playoff scenarios

i would personally love it urban makes saban quit? lol

 

[Dave1967]

I very much hope Nick Satan decides to hang it up.

I doubt he'll stick around like Joe Paterno or Bobby Bowden did.

Why not?

Almost. 63.

dont forget after the arkansas game he was pissed people weren't happy they only won by 1 point a super spoiled fanbase will get to you

 

[Dave1967]

Why not?

How old was Bear Bryant when he retired,was it 71?

 

[TrueOrange]

How old was Bear Bryant when he retired,was it 71?

69.

But that was also over 30 years ago, when coaches didn't make nearly as much as they do now (and I want to say average life expectancy was around half a decade less?)

 

[bamawriter]

How old was Bear Bryant when he retired,was it 71?

69. That's also the age at which he died.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

I want Saban to stay a few more years so Butch can beat that a$$!

Yeah and he went through the "spoiled fanbase" stuff a few years ago too.

Pretty much this exact same scenario has been talked about at least 2-3 times.

 

[Dave1967]

69. That's also the age at which he died.

So it means Nick Satan has a few years left to coach at the very least.

I wouldn't doubt it. It's not like he needs the money so to speak with his wife involved in real estate all over the south. And I'd be fairly certain he would pick up a commentator job in a heartbeat from ESPN or one of the other networks.

Just depends on how pissed he would get.

 

[joevol33]

I would like to see Tennessee beat him a couple of times first. We'll get two chances next year, and think we definatly win the one in Atlanta.

 

[golfballs]

what is urban's record vs. saban?

 

[TrueOrange]

69. That's also the age at which he died.

He also had a heart attack the next January.

I'm not sure, though, what the survival/recovery rate from those was back in the late 70s/early 80s.

Seriously? You wouldn't doubt it?

I give it a zero chance he's going anywhere.

He's likely got until whenever he decides he wants to retire.

The Bear was 69 and looked 89. Drinking will do that to you

 

[VolsSportsFan]

2-2 now.

The Bear looked old when he was 25.

I'll put it another way. Sure he lost a game last night and got out coached and the players outplayed. And fans aren't the only ones with unrealistic expectations. All it would take is a booster, or a couple, to remind him they made him the highest paid coach in America and "we expect you to win by golly, so what the hell were you thinking last night?!"

I wouldn't put it past Saban to tell when where to go and what acts they could perform on themselves when they got there. And as I stated, he doesn't need the money and could get a commentary job and/or another coaching job in a New York minute.
