And this why Kirby is probably the best coach out there now. Nothing in the process gets overlooked.

I realize there is more to it than my simplified post. But, Saban definitely perfected it. I don't ever mean to try to make it sound as if Saban was not special because he was/is. And I am glad he stressed to Kirby the need to always work and work hard. It can burn people out really quick, so it is amazing Saban was able to do it for 17 years. Now that it has become full time with NIL and the portal I don't expect anyone to be able to do it for more than 10 years or so, unless they manage to delegate heavily some of the responsibilities.
