Not even close. He lucked in to the Saban hire. He nearly hired Rich Rod.

True, but he was pressured into it by the dumbass BOTs who didnt want to wait on Saban. Mal wanted Saban and no one else. Thankfully Rita wouldn't let Rich Rod take the job. Bless her.

Wrong. He didn't want to hire Rich Rod. He ALWAYS wanted Saban. The PTB got nervous about waiting on Saban and pushed him to offer Rich Rod. Mal did everything he could to squash the deal with RR because he believed he could land Saban and did.

Bear Bryant hired one coach who is in his sport's Hall of Fame and was president of the sport's national organization, another coach who is in his sport's Hall of Fame, a third coach who is in his sport's international Hall of Fame, and a fourth coach who won six national championships. So maybe we should look more closely at The Bear.

If you're judging by the head coaches an athletic director hired, it would be hard to top Bryant.
