Are you sure the Dementia rumors aren't about Saban? His decision-making had gotten bad.

Hear me out.

He kept Pete Golding around.

He hired Tommy Rees.

He wasn't aggressive in the portal for a new QB before this season.

It was said the team chose Milroe as the starting QB by team vote.

Speaking of Golding, Saban chose him over Tosh Lupoi. Lupoi is the Oregon DC and easily a top 3 recruiter in all of college football

Giving Milroe game reps over a pocket passing, defense reading QB.

This is a nutshell post of things I mentioned on the Bama board that got me banned. Guys never wanted to go there but it makes me wonder. Had Saban invested into a pocket passing QB who could read defenses Niblack and Bond aren't leaving.

Honestly? No. I think he was tough and demanding to work for and a lot of younger coaches don't want to work under those conditions. (Kirby Smart is tough to work for, too)

Don't misunderstand...his toughness was a big part of his success. he demanded excellence. But younger coaches don't like that anymore. It's what society has become. Everybody gets a trophy and you can't be mean to anybody or you hurt their feelings.

If true about the team vote choosing Milroe why would you allow the team to determine the most important position on the team?

Why does it matter? He said he was retiring because he didn't think he was up to the job at the standard he expects from himself anymore. That should be enough for your fan base. Whether he has dementia is none of your fricking business. Live long enough and we all get it to some degree.

People don't mind tough taskmasters in leadership positions. But, when you start making bad decisions you lose credibility. Saban made a lot of bad decisions after Sark left. Sark was masking a lot of ineptitude.

Refused to put Isiah Bond on kick returns even after Bond said in a press conference he'd start returning kicks and he'd been practicing for such.

Once again, Shaft is correct. Its just tough for people to accept. Saban's decisions in several areas had gotten bad. He made the correct decision to retire.

Did you suggest on the Bama board that Saban might have dementia?

If so, I'd say you earned that ban.

More or less what the Bear and Spurrier said when they hung it up.

You were banned because you are a rival fan posing as an Alabama fan, and never had anything good to say about the team or the coaches. Criticism is necessary and welcome for healthy discussion, but you weren't criticizing so much as lambasting.

That's not true. I brought up things sunshine pumpers didn't want to discuss.
