Due to jumping between college and NFL, and no college version of himself for Nick to just photo-copy his college approach from, I disagree

Saban had to figure out how to succeed at the college level with trial and error. Kirby got to just watch what Saban did and copy/paste it at a program in better shape than what Saban received at Bama

He also had his own 2 year Miami NFL version to learn from.
