Nick Saban is an above average coach, at best, who has learned how to surround himself with the best recruiters money can buy. Trade any coach in the SEC for the past 10 years at Bama and they would have a similar record.
Here is Nick Saban's 2008 starting lineup
Offense
LT - Andre Smith (5 star)
LG - Mike Johnson (3 star)
C - Antoine Caldwell (3 star)
RG - Marlon Davis (3 star)
RT - Drew Davis (2 star)
TE - Nick Walker (3 star)
WR - Mike McCoy (4 star)
WR - Julio Jones (5 star) (freshman)
QB - JP Wilson (3 star) (greyshirt)
RB - Glen Coffee (3 star)
Defense
DE - Bobby Greenwood (3 star)
NT - Terrence Cody (3 star)
DE - Brandon Deaderick (3 star)
OLB - Corey Reamer (3 star)
ILB - Rolando McClain (4 star)
OLB - Donta Hightower (3/4 star) (freshman)
CB - Javier Arenas (2 star)
CB - Kareem Jackson (3 star)
FS - Rashad Johnson (walk on)
SS - Justin Woodall (4 star)
That team went 12-0 in the regular season and lost to one of the 10 best teams of the last 50 years in the SECCG before losing to Utah in the Sugar Bowl.
Would you like me to post 2009 too? A walk on from San Antonio had a sack fumble to save the season. Saban went 26-2 in 2008-2009 (24-0 in the regular season) with Mike Shula recruits + his first 2 classes as freshmen and sophomores.
