I'll never understand this mentality of Saban's coaching ability. Yes, there's a lot of talent. But that's his job...to assemble a great staff and roster to compete at the highest level possible. All of that talent doesn't equate a championship. You've still got to turn them into a functioning unit.

You're not going to have a perfect balance of experience at every position, each and every year. Frankly, Alabama has been hurting for talent and experience at DB since 2012. With early departures and recruiting misses, 2013 and 2014 were way down. Obviously. The last two classes has seen a massive infusion of talent there. We shall see if it pays off, or the last two years are truly a trend.

That is their point. Why hasn't he turned them into that functioning unit? I mean, with the huge talent gap that he has he should win everything if he is as good a coach as many make him out to be.

True...but no other team does, either...not do they have the talent that Alabama has.
