Per Chris Low of Espn! Finally the end of the Dynasty. Could be the best news I've heard in years. :popcorn:

Maybe we get a two'fer. Kirby has been dropping some pretty heavy hints about the NFL. Positioning maybe? But the NFL is a much better gig these days.

Hard to have a dynasty when everyone can now pay for players

It's like the shadow is gone from the clouds. Like a really, heavy rock has been lifted off my shoulders.
I knew he almost singlehandedly sucked almost all the joy out of this game for me, but I don't think I really comprehended just how heavy that burden was until this moment.

Too late. Ha.
I’ll say this. It’s the wrong time to have the wrong guy. If Barfield had been at AU instead of Dye when brunt retired? Our history might look a whole lot different.
Better hope yall are right.

Wholeheartedly agree.
There's a familiar correlation.
On scale (Dye to Bryant) when Kirby left Saban UGA came to
rise.
And from that Tennessee (Majors etc.)to Clemson (Dabo) if you follow my rambling in terms that both programs accquired relevance from a changing of the guard so to speak. Okay I admit that's a stretch.
Too soon to get into any rightful heir talk but here's hoping the knives out crew will surface to do their part to make this a royal shitshow for the ages...in a sporting sense naturally.

I'm kind of the opinion that no matter who they get, it is going to turn out the same.
No program in the country has the same kind of insane pressure which has now curdled with outrageous expectations. Many of them today are chill and confident that things will go on just like they have because.... "Sabbbin don't build no teams, Sabbin builds dynasties. Look what he done at LSU!! Two turrible coaches done won nashunal champeenships cuz of the foundation he lefted down there. If Sabbin hadn'ta never gone to LSU, they wouldn'ta won none of that."
They are wrong.
Nobody alive will be able to control every facet of that program like he did. Whoever follows him will get crushed by it. By the entitlement. By the demands. By the unrelenting scrutiny. By the comparisons.
We HAVE to be in a position to take advantage of that ... and << nevermind >>

I think we are. 2024 will be the start of the tangible trend towards greatness. If I am wrong, I'll buy you an Omaha Steak.

After hearing all the fawning and knob schlobbing the past 24 hours....fuuuckk that guy!!!
If there are health issues with him, or his family, and that's the real reason to step away, fine. Otherwise, he's just getting his ass out before people realize the only thing he was the GOAT at, was cheating. Very similar to the Bill Bellychick/Brady comparison. How good is Bellychick without Brady? Brady won another Super Bowl. Bellychick just got canned.
K said this in another thread. How good is Saban when all of a sudden, he has to play by the same set of rules as everybody else? When he can't control everything. He knows, so he's leaving.
Remember a little over a year ago, when Saban called out the Greasy Car Salesman, Dimbulb Fisher, for a bought and paid for recruiting class? The Saban apologist spin doctors quickly came to his defense, claiming he was directing those comments at the big money boosters, telling them to open up the check books. BULL F'N SHIT!!! That's the biggest, blackest pot in the kitchen calling the kettle black.
A couple of things. First, Fisher clapped back with absolute truth. I was there. I know how you "built that dynasty." I know about all the skeletons in the closets, and where all the bodies are buried. And the graveyard is Arlington level huge.
Second....asking the boosters to open the check books??? WTF??? What do you think they've been doing the 15 years prior? How the hell do you think that dynasty was built in the first place?
Maybe he doesn't want to deal with the portal and NIL and all that shit. Who does? But the bottom line is, he knows those 2 losses a year are about to turn into 3 and 4 losses. He knows people will finally start asking the legit question...How good are you when you can't buy all the best players?

Just when I think you couldn't possibly be any dumber, you go and post something like this...and TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF!

It ain't that complicated. I don't like Hugh. Never have. I'm out of going to games, watching them *for the most part* and being invested until he proves me wrong or is gone.
But I'm still orange and blue.
