LSU did just as much if not more for Saban than he did for LSU.

LSU opened the purse and gave him a shitload of power in deciding how it would be spent. He held more power than ANY HC in LSU history even before his first winning season...because LSU recognized him as the Rock Star he wanted to be.

LSU won him his first SECC.

LSU made him the Highest paid coach in NCAA...after winning him his first NCC.

LSU is responsible for the Saban brand, period.

And no, he didn't run from LSU. Not at all. He was easily seduced by $ and the promise of NFL success by Devils that refused to take no for an answer and exchanged c-notes for oxygen.

When he failed at that, he made Bama money-men his bitches and has been holding high court in Tuscaloosa ever since.

Your welcome, coach.

OK, that is a stretch

Agreed

We owe L5U our thanks for helping our coach to grow up enough to pull our program out of the shitter if had fallen into. L5U helped Alabama (as Barrett Jones said) Restore Order.

I think that's true to some degree. It worked both ways together, and Saban really got his process going with LSU. I think that time is still very special to him.
