For over a decade, Alabama Crimson Tide head coach Nick Saban has been undeniably the most successful coach in the sport and has built a dynasty at Alabama. But one former Georgia Bulldogs quarterback thinks that dynasty might be coming to an end sooner than later.
During a recent appearance on the ‘3 And Out’ Podcast with John Middlekauf, former Georgia quarterback Aaron Murray predicted that Nick Saban will not coach for another five years and will not win another national championship.
“How much longer? Two things,” Murray said on the podcast according to On3. “Will Nick ever win another natty? And over or under four and a half years left of coaching? I don’t think he coaches another five years. And I don’t know if he wins another national championship either.
“I don’t think it’s going to happen this year. I think it’s going to be more and more difficult to win a national championship because of this new format. And, all of a sudden, you start to see Nick Saban, who has dominated the sport for so long, slowly start coming down that mountain,” said Murray. “Already? He hasn’t won in two years, which is rare for them. You don’t win again this year, which I don’t think that they have the team to do it. Then you don’t do it next year? All of a sudden that’s four years in a row and people start questioning if that is truly the last time that we’ve seen Nick win.”
That’s certainly quite a bold prediction from Aaron Murray. We’ll have to see how it works out for him.
