Are we now in our "Shula" years

[EmerilVOL]

just as Alabama struggled through the Shula years are we now in that mode and have to go through another three years of frustation before we hire our "Saban"?


Frankly I think that we are seeing the results of the Mike Hamilton effect on our program.  Hamilton chose Kiffin over objections of some people that warned Hamilton of the consequences of just such a hire.  I for one was not sanguine about the hire even though some people on this board said he was the perfect hire for UT going forward.  I think Hamilton was swinging for the fences and did not know how to hire a quality football coach.  That is what you get when you have an athletic director running the show that had never been a collegiate athlete....(JMHO)

Great minds.

Just like I said when IV posted it, for Dooley to be Shula, there has to be a Saban type of coach who follows him.

I hope so, Shula's record his 3rd year was 10-2.
