The guy who spells Texas "Tejas" just called me a kid.
On a scale of 1 to literally, I can't even.

Spurrier is the only one that makes any sense a all.
How the hell did Sumlin make your list?

Actually I think that sumlin would destroy Saban if they faced off with equal talent.
Think about it, Saban continually has the most talented team in the country, and he continually loses games to teams with lesser talent. He's still a great coach, but I'd take several others as a game day coach

Can't win every single game.

Every coach has his strengths and weaknesses. What matters is their record. I'd say Saban has earned his keep. 
You're not insinuating that he is less of a coach, are you? Do you think Ole Miss would hire him if they could?

Saban gets the best players in the country. I give him credit for that, but he routinely loses to teams that are less talented.
If by routinely you mean he has lost 9 times total in 6 years, you are a confused man. His losses vs. Florida in 08, at LSU, at USC, and vs. Auburn in 10, vs. LSU in 11, and against one of the best quarterback to play college football vs. A&M in 12.
So that leaves 3 losses to teams with noticeably less talent in 6 years. Any program would be thrilled with that. There is potentially one coach better in game and that is Spurrier. Malzahn hasn't coached long enough for me to crown him as a better in-game coach. Anybody can have one great/fortunate season.

Spurrier-- only one that has an argument.
Gus-- based on one season with two losses and a couple lucky breaks (tipped pass, Johnny horse collar)?
Les-- so he can lose to Ole Miss with LSU talent but still be a better gameday coach? K.
Sumlin-- finished 4th in the west with Heisman winner and best receiver in the nation and has never won anything of note.

I'll trade a loss to unranked Tennessee to Top 2 Auburn anyday.
I honestly can't remember who was ranked #1 in that game and don't feel like taking less than a minute to find out.
ETA: Or was FSU ranked #1? frick man

He has routinely lost only 9 games in the last six years.

And to be even more specific, three of those six were against Heisman winners. Another was against a drunk who just happened to play the game of his life.

Don't agree. I think part of it is Saban's system and attitude towards coaching, which is different from both gameday coaching and recruiting, IMO.
So I do think all 4 of those may be better "concoct a gameplan" coaches, or day of game coaches, I don't think they'd all do better with Saban's teams.

Really?
Outside of the 6 losses in his first year, what teams with less talent did he lose to?
2010 - Losses to #19 SCar, #10 LSU #2 Auburn
2011 - Loss to #2 LSU
2012 - Loss to #15 TAMU
2013 - Losses TO #4 Auburn, Loss to #11 Oklahoma
I'll give you SCar and TAMU. The other losses were to teams with equal to better talent as far as Bama. Other teams do recruit ya kmow
