Title: Turnover at Alabama Would Give Rivals a Rare Opportunity to Pounce

Yep, 2016 will be a big challenge for Saban.

Is there a hiccup looming for the Crimson Tide — even a slight one? A number of significant players could be preparing to leave Alabama, including the players most responsible for the identity of the current team, which is 11-1.

It seems preposterous to think that Saban (97-18) could be rebuilding, not merely reloading, given his track record in recruiting high school talent and developing players for the pros. Still, Alabama could lose 11 on defense and six on offense, including the senior quarterback Jake Coker and the senior center Ryan Kelly.

ATLANTA — Alabama’s football team does not slog through the rebuilding process like most programs. It just emerges every fall as a national championship contender. Coach Nick Saban, who is in his ninth season with the Crimson Tide, has led them to three Southeastern Conference championships and three national championships, and they will play for a fourth SEC title on Saturday in the Georgia Dome here against Florida.

This says it all for me...

“I know Coach is a great technician about putting things together,” Ragland said of Saban, “and then next year, I know Coach will do a great job of putting the team together and getting the guys he wants to coach on the field.”

This happens every year.  Nothing new, and it doesn't seem to stop us.

Yes it does. All of this talk is nothing more than a social media soap opera. There's only one coach on the Bama team that makes THE big difference and everyone knows who that is, Nick Saban.
