I'd be more curious to know how long a coach can last at a blue blood school like UT (or one of the others) without winning a Natty? If he is constantly getting 10 win seasons, maybe some playoff appearances, but just never gets to the top.

In my lifetime, the coaches with the longest tenures at top 8 “blue bloods” without winning NCs were

1. Bo Schembechler
2. Fred Akers
3. John Cooper

Tom Osborne was at NU 20 years prior to winning his first NC, so he would be 2nd if including him.

My Lexus gets 22 MPG.

im just sayin..you mention tom osborne....

bowden was at FSU 17 years before they were given a TD that wasn't close to win their first championship game. and he won the 2nd one due to the fact that Nebraska (the best team in 1999) shot itself in the foot when it fumble on the 1 yard line against Tejas.

Or “forced to resign forsexual assault charges from kissing his players gone to far”.

I've no notion of what Herman's tenure will be at Texas. I do hope that Tennessee (UT) will garner another national championship in the coming seasons. If that happens during Herman's tenure at Texas, that's fine.

In general, coaches are frequently fired and rarely win nattys, so I went with fired as the more likely outcome.

Which happens first? Saban fired or Bama Nat'l Championship? I say a Bama title, even though we haven't won one in a year.
