Nick Saban did not enjoy consistent success as a college football coach until his 2nd year at Alabama in 2008. Not at MSU or LSU... Toledo doesn't count. He was 57 in '08. How old is Franklin now? 47? He's got time to be as good as Saban. 10 F'n years until he must begin to enjoy consistent success to be compared to Saban... people need to STFU about Franklin. He is way better than Saban was at this point in his career. I will say, Saban is a top notch recruiter... and so is Franklin.
