Unlike articles on a 2014 season, about which facts can be known, this article is a clear-cut violation of WP:CRYSTAL; general consensus, in the past, has been that it is acceptable to create articles one season ahead ... two seasons ahead, the information is quite simply not verifiable - Lane Kiffin may not be the offensive coordinator, Kirby Smart my find a head coaching job, Nick Saban may retire. While all this is pure speculation, it is not verifiable that they will be there in the 2015 season, but since they have announced/been hired/are under contract for the 2014 season, it is thus acceptable to have that article.

 * Delete. The entire article is written in the future tense and every assertion in it is (in varying degree), speculation.  JohnInDC (talk) 12:14, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:CRYSTAL. There is no guarantee anything on the page will be true one year from now. Recreate after the 2014 season. — X96lee15 (talk) 12:53, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
