Don't know, but some of the shine has worn off for sure.

I say 3 more years. He sort of has an excuse right now his recurits are just freshman. If he doesnt turn things around by the time they are seniors he will probably be gone.

How many years does he stay there after he turns it around is the big question....I don't really forsee him retiring in that sess pool they call Tuskaloosa

5 year plan, just like OrangeEmpire's high school education. They spent too much money to admit they were wrong before that point, barring a 2 or 3 win season.

He has already turned it around. Just not in the direction they had anticipated.
