🏈 Is CNS the GOAT ?

[#80]

The video narrated by Brad Edwards makes a compelling case.

Is Nick Saban the best college football coach ever? - ESPN Video

Yeah, pretty compelling stats

I approve this message .

All that, coupled with the fact that he's won 5 championships in 14 years. Bear, as great as he was, won 6 in 25. And in an era with much more parity and almost half the available scholarships per year.

You right, but you got to remember those that coach Bryant got were voted in ,not played out I can remember two more if Coach Bryant had got to play instead of being voted for. 1966 and 1977!

He just as easily may have fewer if he had to play them out.

All that, coupled with the fact that he's won 5 championships in 14 years.

I think it's 5 in his last 12 years of coaching CFB, and he had teams a game/play or two away from 3 other national title shots (2008, 2013, 2014)

2007 and 2010 (ironically one of his most talented and experienced teams) are the only 2 years at Bama where UA wasn't a real contender. Not too shabby.

I think it's 5 in his last 12 years of coaching CFB,

2003 was the first. 13, right?

 

[Che Boludo]

2003 was the first. 13, right?

He coached dolphins in 2005 and 2006. So, the last 11 seasons played as a CFB HC he has 5 nc.

If we keep at this math in public, in true Bama championship counting style, he may end up with 17 in last 13 before we're done. :bamadance:

 

[It Takes Eleven]

I'm my normal nervous self about this one.
