Would not care if it was Saban.

The Portal and NIL change nothing about building a program and a mentality to the team.

I can list example after example. I already listed 3. Stoops, Clawson (at each stop), and the Utah coach. here is another, Mizzou.

Pinkel took 7 years to build that program to a 12 win season. Once he got there (2007) this was his record. 81-38 with five seasons of 10 plus wins in a season and two of those were 12 wins. One 11 win.

History is not on your side with this.
And history is irrelevant in the current landscape of college football. That's what you're not getting.
