About as much as Saban did at 57 when he went to Bama?


You downvoted me because of that?

I knew someone would bring up Saban's age, because it's the most predictable non-argument out there. How many Nick Saban's can YOU count, smart guy? I SPECIFICALLY said I "don't know" what he has in the tank. I'm not sure part of that sounds to you like "this guy is definitely done". A lot of coaches reach the age of 60 and they just don't have the energy to deal with teenagers' crap anymore, or at least not enough to be competitive.

Brian Kelly is already said to be not the most involved recruiter out there, whereas Saban is addicted to it.

Sam Pittman is 60 - 18th in recruiting and had a top 25 class last year. I think after finishing with likely 10 wins this year, he'll pull a couple more 4 star recruits to solidify a top 15-20 class, at Arkansas.

Mack Brown is 70 - 8th in recruiting with two 5 stars and nine 4 stars

Both 5 stars are in the top 10 (#2 defensive tackle, #1 offensive tackle). He has a top 8 WR and top 8 RB. Has 9 guys in the top 200 recruits. Last year he pulled in a 5 star DL, a top 60 overall recruit at QB, 5 guys in the top 140 recruits and 7 in the top 210.


If we can get Lebby and either retain Jones at DC or make a great DC pick (there are several to go for), it'll be easy to wrap up a top 7 class.

. Well his class when he left was in the top 5 in the country so he’s doing something right recruiting wise

Friendly tip - whining about downvotes is never a good look.
