No seriously. This woman doesn't even say damn. About the most southern woman you'll ever meet, but a diehard bama fan who grew up watching the days of Bear Bryant. I'm rolling over here.

He had a great run. Enjoy retirement and relax. Life is too damn short.
Good for him. Get out while the getting is still good. I think he sees the Big 10 taking over and he wanted out before that happened. 
Times have changed and teams/coaches can’t stockpile talent down the depth chart like they could before the transport portal and with the realignment of conferences and playoff system the college football landscape is in unknown territory. I’d say he is getting out while still near the top AND before taking a chance on the program backsliding with all the new changes. We also don’t know what his health is like or family wants either so that could be an influence in his decision as well.

Even saban knows bama sucks and moved to Florida!"What's he going to do, sit on the Dock of his new 17 million dollar house in Fl and watch the ducks fuck."

I think that's only the 2nd F bomb I've ever seen my mom drop.

You're absolutely right The landscape is changing. The writing has been on the wall since the BCS days that everyone was tired of a single conference dominating the title games. Fans were tired and bitching about it and viewership and the all king money was suffering. They key to that domination was depth and development. To "fix" that they went to a 4 team playoff system hoping that would add enough random results. That still didn't "fix" it. The bitching continued and viewership was suffering with their coveted playoff system.
So they removed the 1 season penalty for the transfer portal, added some NIL changes to incentivize players to not sit the bench on a depth chart their first two years. And further expanded the playoff to 12 teams to add more random results. Basically whatever it took to nullify the strategy of recruiting top talent, developing that talent, and stacking the depth chart. But if you were Nick Saban, the writing has been on the wall for many many years. They'll stop at nothing to stop you to include changing whatever format and rules are needed to nullify your consistent success. It's purely "If you can't win just change the rules"
Most say it's great for college football because it spreads everything around, Theres not much of an argument to be made against that. It's no doubt great for the NCAA and CFP bank accounts, the Michigan / Washington game was the most watched in 4 years. Looking back at ratings even back to the BCS era, confrences like the Big 10 bring viewers due to state populations. At the end of the day it's entertainment, and they need to make it entertaiing.

Things are looking up for Day this year. Dominance through attrition. 
I don't get it, Harbaugh had a rough start at Michigan, finally got things going, wins a national championship and jumps ship. I would think he would want to build a legacy.
Because he is going to be railroaded in the NCAA investigation.

Sometimes it's best to go out on top. Not on bottom for eating boogers on live TV.
There’s a rumor going around that he wanted a no fire clause for anything he’s caught doing past or present. Michigan said no.
College football rankings: Predicting the AP top 25 preseason poll
A week after the Coaches Poll top 25 went live, the next big step in the 2024 preseason is the debut of the AP top 25 college football rankings, giving fans the
Haha, predicting another great year out of ND
. We all know these ranking don't mean shit but they are way off this year IMO with a bunch of teams.
Ohio State number two? Here is how I would have written it up: The Buckeyes have a solid team returning and picked up very impressive transfers. Knowing they are OSU, they will not be able to handle all the talent. Chip Kelly is a fine addition as OC, buy won't be enough. Buckeyes are a number one team. As a fan you should expect to play for 3rd place in the playoff games.
