That was a Seinfeld reference.

What I meant by "acting childish" is that it appears that you are actually mad about the game(s) and are still tossing little temper tantrums a full day later. Grow up.

What the hell will people do with themselves when we win the SEC next year?

I am tired of this argument.

what exactly did Saban build? I believe in his last year he lost three games, including the bowl game against Iowa in the last second while his precious defense was on the field. He won games the same way Miles did this year...by the skin of his teeth for the most part. not only that, but he got his ass handed to him at UGA last year....I was there and watched the whole damn thing in disgust.

yea, Saban recruited great high school talent and got great recruiting class rankings the last 2-3 years he was here, but if it amounts to nothing on the field it is only as good as the paper it is written on. I think Saban saw he would be unable to repeat what he was able to do in 2003, even with the talent he had on paper.......and the struggles of the 2004 season made the jump to the NFL all that much easier. I say Saban would be in the same position today as Miles, or even worse not having made the SECCCG.

Enough of the Saban excuses and BS...it no longer holds water

Are you kidding? LOL. We had up and down years under Saban, but we always had faith that Saban had things under control, and he did. He wasn't perfect, but his teams could dominate a game. Not so with Miles yet against a decent team.

Saban left because he was competitive and wanted to go to the next level, not because he knew that everything would come apart this year.

Saban may have won or lost more games than Miles, but the difference is that he was a proven commodity. We still don't know what we have in Miles, especially considering the championship game last night against Georgia.

You said MAYBE the problem was his laid back attitude, which means that you definitely think it exists, but sometimes it's not always a problem.

I picked that because it's a common theme on here for people to say that he's "laid back" which is bullshiat. It's the only point in your argument that doesn't hold up. It gets old seeing the terms "laid back" and "way in over his head" over and over again because it's simply not true. Players aren't executing and, unfortunately, he can't control that. Of course, he can stress execution to his players, but it's ultimately up to the players.

Maybe you could point out some coaches who ARE laid back and some who ARE NOT to give me a better feel for your definition.

Was the team one of the nation's leaders in penalties under Saban? The results speak louder than your defense of how things are going.
