Rule Book Code of Ethics:

Feigning an injury for any reason is unethical. An injured player must be given full protection under the rules, but feigning injury is dishonest, unsportsmanlike and contrary to the spirit of the rules. Such tactics cannot be tolerated among sportsmen of integrity.
Given this is already on teh books and that the issue of player safety has been raised I think we should kill two birds with one stone and enforce the existing rule by making all "injured" players remain out for several minutes (or a change of possession) so they can be properly examined by medical staff before returning to the game.
That would eliminate the fake injuries, or at least limit the effectiveness of that as a general strategy.

Cause and effect. Saban has been ethical in the ways his games are played. Probably the least penalized team in the nation. His teams are probabl the most physical and in shape teams in the country. He probably prepares his players for the NFL better than anyone. So, what do you think he is going to coach when it comes to flopping.
So, when you say that when you think Bama people would except him as a criminal. What you get when you have Saban, is the consumate best coach in the nation. I guess when you haven't got it and not going to get it, you can make asinine statements like that.
