You don't seem to get it. No one cares if the kids go pro, as long as they win something when they are there.
They haven't won crap at Bevo U, and that, along with supreme arrogance of the big hat crowd, is all that you need to know.
I've gone over his results several times, I
do get it. He's the most successful coach they ever had. It would be different if they had won a NCAA title, ever... then they could whine about not winning one with him, but all he did was bring the most success they ever had, and that wasn't good enough. That's just a sense of entitlement, it's like saying Alabama will fire their next coach if all he does is take Alabama to the final four. That's insane. It might make sense if you're talking Alabama football, or Kentucky basketball... but even then it reeks of entitlement.
Let's say Cody doesn't block that kick, and Alabama doesn't back into two other title games. Should Saban have been fired? If Calipari hasn't won his single championship at Kentucky, should he have been fired? No, that's nuts, and as far as conference championships, with the NCAA tournament, unless you're a mid-major a conference championship is meaningless drivel. Now, I'm not completely sure if you are defending their position or merely pointing out their arrogance, but my point was just that they're arrogant fools and I really hope that mentality never seeps into Alabama basketball.
I belabor the point because I was somewhat annoyed with Gene Stallings, I mean after all he wasn't winning one every year (I was young), the offense kinda sucked, etc... and even Wimp, I mean all that talent and nothing better than the Sweet 16? Little did I know that they'd be looked on so fondly in retrospect.
