Of this who can't get over Saban's success at Alabama; The 10% of LSU fans and the rest are fans of other teams posting on an LSU board, can just live in their anger bc HE AINT GOING ANYWHERE except retirement after Bama.

How about this? You admit that you want to talk shite to Bama fans and really don't have a leg to stand on. So you attempt to make the HC's NFL career look like a total and abject failure. Then when presented with a list of all time great NFL coaches who started out worse, you start deflecting. Step your game up


I just brought up that Saban knew his own limits and decided to tuck and run. That was actually the honorable thing to do in his case. He realized the process worked better with 18-22 year olds than it did with 30 years old. I'm giving him credit.

It was clear that Mike Ditka was going to be a horrible coach when he started out 11-14.

Only insecure Alabama fans would try to compare Nick Saban's NFL coaching career against two coaches who have won a combined 4 Super Bowls.

Yeah, I'm sure Saban was the missing piece to the 1-15 Dolphins after he left. They were Super Bowl-bound.

Look at the 6 NFL teams. Most prefer winning the Press Conference to winning on the field. Saban hire would make a good Sports Center morning, but ask Miami what the Fall would be like.
Do you actually realize that you're posting shite that, in essence, says that you know more about NFL football management than six NFL teams' management staffs?....and you expect folks to listen to you?

Most people know better than to return to a place that you failed. It would be like marrying your ex-wife. It might be exciting for a little while, but you know there is a good chance you will get the same results.


I always hear how much of a failure he was in the NFL.... his first season at the Dolphins resulted in a 9-7 season after they had went 4-12 the year before. That's a pretty nice improvement. Then they signed Dante Culpepper and he never recovered from his knee injury and ended up starting 3 different quarterbacks the next season but still ended 6-10 with wins over the patriots as well as snapping the Bears winning streak, who ended up playing in the super bowl that year.

I wouldn't really call that failure. His first season he barely missed the playoffs with a team that had just 4 wins the year before and his second season was set back with quarterback issues.

But don't let facts get in the way of a good flame fest of a coach you wish you had.

Well being that he coached at LSU and won a BCNNC here AND this is an LSU website...
The 10% who will never get over it (they generally never get over past loves or losses in life in general) overbroadcast themselves above the 90% who respect him for what he did here and have moved on.

Just like the 1/10th of LSU fans who can't get over Saban, what's with you 1/10th of Bama fans who feel the need to rewrite and justify his NFL failures?

Dude you personally chastised people for posting in coaching changes threads during the LSU non-search that weren't LSU fans.

I think history has proven that 5 of those NFL Management staffs know very little about managing a franchise. Two had to move, two need to move and one ran off their best coach since they went to the Super Bowl. The NFL is a "too big to fail" business that just recycles the incompetent.
