Do you think he leaves and comes back to another SEC school like Spurrier did. I think he would because he seen that there is so much talent in the south. I hope he would not do that to LSU but you never know.

Very possible. Just look at Dennis Erickson. He'll clearly end up back in the college ranks, yet again. He won't go back to Oregon State just like Saban probably wouldn't come back to LSU. Things just don't work out that way. When Saban gets tired of the BS in the NFL, he will be back in the college ranks. This is one of the reasons why I am sorry we are losing him. I was hoping he could be the Dean of SEC coaches at LSU for a long time to come.

What other schooll in the SEC has no competition in recruiting the state? None.

I'd say he has to come back here but hopefully we will be on our way to our 4th or 5th NC and not want him to come back.

I think Looooooooville has been beating up on the Wild kittens pretty good in recruiting.

I doubt Nick would come back to the SEC. Doubt he'll come back to the big ten, but there's a better chance of him becoming the coach of Michigan or Penn State in a few years than Nick becoming the coach of a SEC school.

Seriously Nick at Penn State would be scary.

I think Nebraska, Notre Dame or Texas, but not another SEC school.

Not that I really care about him anymore however if he comes back it will be to Penn State or Va Tech... Since he will want to finish his career near home..

For the record I think Saban fails miserably, I am sure some of you think its just sour grapes. I am going on precedent, his coaching style and all that power in the past has proved to be a failure for incoming college coaches. People like Bill Parcells can get away with it because the skins on the wall, BUT unless Saban wins quickly his style will go over like a turd in a punch bowl with NFL players.
