Anyone thinks that Saban is changing offensive philosophy?

If it was truly a difference in offensive philosophy then does that mean that Saban wants to get away from the pro style hurry up? Maybe he wants to go power run spread option type? Im sure he wants to stay with hurry up as he said several times before that he felt we played better when we played faster. Thoughts?

I don't buy this for a second. It makes no sense. He was there all season, I don't think Saban suddenly changed his mind on style after one game.
Sark gets to do half the work and coach the NFL MVP. That makes way more sense.

I think his philosopy now is that he favors up tempo earlier in the game and at times when it makes sense, but with a solid lead in the 2nd half favors clock-eating drives.

it has been reported by multiple sources that the reason sark left was disagreements with saban over offensive philosophy and the parting was mutual

I do think he's changing philosophy but I don't think the hurry up is in the plans. He's seen the dark side of it and doesn't like it.

I've seen it reported by one guy at SBNation and ridiculed by local guys

I've only seen it from one source. A particularly inaccurate source at that. He would have been OC this season if this plum opportunity wouldn't have fallen on is lap.
Seriously, he got an offer from the NFC Champions, a team that truly could have won the Superbowl. Also, that has a very young team. You don't just happen to end up with the reigns of the highest powered offense in the NFL. You don't make a call to an NFL coach and say, hey, it's not working for me at Alabama, how about you hand me the keys to this offense.
Call it what it is, a move up for him.

The man was offered a better job and took it. The only benefit to having Sark was his ability to develop the QB position.
