Alabama is the only school to win the SEC after a coach backslides in their first year.

Is Nick Saban sabotaging the SEC East? Thanks for the hire, Georgia! Looking forward to the continued success. I hope when you hire a new one for the 2019 season you go back to the well.
Head coaches whose team’s record worsens in their debuts don’t tend to go on to win titles. In fact, since the SEC expanded in 1992, only twice has the conference title has been won by a coach who went backwards in his first year at that school. And only once in the past 25 years has a national title been won by a coach who slid in his first year.
