Alabama practice vs Tennessee practices on day one

Saban on Butch: he’s an intern.

Butch on Butch: I’m Head Coach in waiting.

Like calipari is the best ever,right? Jimmies and joes.. im telling u

No, he isn't. UT says 2-1 this year and will probably sweep next year unless Calipari pulls in some monster freshmen. Even then, I think his philosophy is beginning to wear out.

So what you are saying is ONLY the teams that average out over time to have the Highest ranking players at that given instant will win the NC? Why don't we just recruit and then quit? You can just grade teams on how they recruit and the award trophies from there. Save a lot of injuries, $$, etc.

I didnt read your whole message but what im saying is that u can usually trace top 3 teams by recruiting classes. Science

Oh great. Another post about hoping to be just like Alabubba.

Emulating success is a good thing!

 

[MocVol]

Wrong. It's about the jimmies and joes

How's that working out for the Lady Vols? :thud:

Yes, because 50 words is tough to get through. I understand.

Worked well for Baylor, however, I don't think Holly has any Jimmies and Joes.

Totally diff game

 

[bamawriter]

How many times did UT have the #1 class??

How many times did UT lose to a team with far less talent?

Alabama hasn't lost to an unranked team in over 10 years.

I'm glad u understand

U tell me. And then you're talking about a team with a top 3 class every year the last 10 years losing to an unranked team? Give me a break dude

 

[ACvol3]

But didn't bama lose to some b.s. team not long ago?

 

[ACvol3]

Not named ole miss

 

[MocVol]

Totally diff game

So coaching matters in basketball but not in football so much? Sorry, but I disagree. Same principle.

Correlation does not equal causation, just because the best recruits want to learn from the best coaches, doesn't mean that those coaches are not essential to the success of the team they built.

Bama's last loss to an unranked opponent was 11/17/2007 against ULM. That was Saban's first season.

:lolabove: I see what you did there!! For the Lady Vols it would be Jimmies and Jos (both feminine).

I guess that was what I was thinking

That's why he off the field now

Bottom line guys- look at the recruiting rankings and then look at recent standings

Again, correlation does not equal causation.

Tell that to Scott frost at ucf.

Hey! Show some respect. He was able to predict that Butch would still be the coach this year.

Well, he is still “a” coach this year. Does he get any points for that?

Recruiting is part of a coach's job description.

 

[UGADawg4Life]

Kirby smart took a team full of richt recruits to the NCG, same jimmies and joes, different coach different results. It's really not that hard to comprehend.

I don’t see that it matters whose recruits they are as long as they’re good recruits. CMR could have won the east with them, but not the SEC, IMHO. You have to have a really good roster of players and a really good staff to know what to do with them to win the SEC. One without the other won’t do it.
