I call bullshit on the claim that sabans players won the 2007 championship. The players he recruited were seniors at the time of that win and there were many more Miles recruits on that team. Sabans players probably didn't even play when they were freshmen
All that time Matt Flynn was sitting on the bench behind Matt Mauck and then Jamarcus Russell he was being developed by Saban's OC Jimbo Fisher. If Flynn had still been around in 2011 I believe he would have found a way to move the chains enough to give the greatest defense in the history of college football enough time to rest to keep us in the game. You know which game I'm talking about.
I think LSU is a top 10 team on their roster alone. That's how it's been for the past....I can't even count....seasons at the beginning of the season. If the O line can step it up and Etling can as well, it's a top 10 team for sure.
