Saban is an average on field coach who won games by having superior talent. When the field started getting leveled with transfers and NIL he was losing his advantage.

Yeah you’re right. I guess that’s why they won the SEC championship again this year. Idiot. He retired because he’s old and his wife is having health issues.

And signed top two classes the last few seasons while lining up 1st rd guys like Jahmyr Gibbs and Jamo Williams in the portal.

NIL/transfer portal hasn’t hurt Bama, it helped fill critical gaps the last three years.

NIL finally did what no program could do. Take Saban's advantage away and retire him.

This is one of the reason Saban retired... college football is essentially dead, replaced by a pro league, complete with multi-million dollar player contracts and free agency for players. You may as well tax colleges with football teams as the businesses they are.

Didn’t A&M just recently gather the best recruiting class money can buy? By a pretty healthy margin at that I believe was the consensus among the people who actually know what they’re talking about on that topic. It’s not like they had a complete know-nothing as their HC at the time. Still though, opposing coaching overcame that NIL advantage. College may be more about the jimmys and joes than x’s and o’s, but the coaches themselves are jimmys and joes as well…..some are “men amongst boys” in the same sense that concept applies to the players. Saban, amongst a few others, is the coaching version of that premise. And I’m no Alabama fan.
