He's also lost two bowl games in a row. If we make it three I bet there starts to be some talk.
He just won an SEC championship and made it to the first ever college football playoff. He lost to the eventual national champions. Alabama hasn't had less than 10 wins since his first season.
Maybe someone thinks he's doing a poor job, but that someone is a moron.

It's a cult
No two ways about it. The most interesting thing will be his replacement. .....would you want to follow Saban at Bama?

I would. Stockpiles of talent, can probably keep some of the staff, will be making a few million dollars a year, etc. Sounds like a good gig.

I feel like a coach at another school has already had success by simply following Saban...

Laugh at you for comparing college baseball to college football. I know LSU fans likes to toot the baseball horn, but come on when it comes to comparing the popularity of the two
Boom level-100%

Yes, the two situations are exactly the same
Insecure much?
Miles did better with Saban's guys though, so there's that.

It won't generate any butthurt, but it may get flamed based solely on the fact that every fan base does this.

But Cowherd knows that there's no way Saban will go to Bama. So he must have just made all of this up.

Bama fans aren't known for their "healthy relationships" with anything

I have healthy relationship with 2 sheep and a goat, so you shut your whore mouth...

I've made the comparison of Penn State and Bama in their fanbases coach/hero worship. It's weird and cultlike and can lead to bad things. However, Saban is a professional businessman and will retire long before he's in the Paterno stage.

Of course. This is true for Alabama, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Florida State, South Carolina, Penn State AGAIN, and about 20 other places where the coach has been successful and the fans/alumni care more about football than any other aspect of the university.
Cowherd specifically mentioned Ohio State and Meyer as being the opposite of Bama in this regard. He said Meyer isn't anywhere near as controlling and doesn't have nearly the leverage Saban has over Bama.
Not sure I agree just paraphrasing what I heard on my drive to work.
I should have know this would make its way here.

No one said he is doing a poor job. However, we are all under the impression that Alabama is in this to win championships. No consolation prizes blah blah blah. Isn't that what you all spout on here constantly?
I guess I've been reading a different board

You gotta feel sorry for anyone too stupid to realize that "Coach" is a professional title, like Doctor, General, Admiral, Reverend, etc.
Could you imagine a DA going up to George Patton and saying "Hey Patton!"
Sometimes it's good to think a little bit before you post.
