There are various levels of autism. ( not saying Saban is) Being mild on the spectrum can make someone very focused on things that they are interested in.

I coach a 6U football team with my brother. His son is the QB. He is five and has a touch of autism or OCD one. They have never had him tested. He plays QB because he shows insane attention to detail. Every evening that we don’t have practice my brother pulls up film from the previous game and gives him the remote and leaves him alone. He sits in the floor and watches for 45 minutes to an hour. Every day. He literally begs my brother to let him. The kid is as quite as a church mouse, and not super big; but gets on that field and immediately takes over, gets everyone lined up and jumps all over asses if someone doesn’t do something right. Basically a little robot. He has also wrestled two years and won a state championship both years as well.
