I think Chicken's point is that Jimbo was already in the FSU staff and had recruited most of the roster. Bama hired a guy from across the country that the players don't know.
It’s a point worth discussing and certainly would be ideal if it could have been pulled off, but there is no way that model would have worked with Saban/Alabama. Desirable (coordinator level, HC potential) coaches simply didn’t want to work with Saban for long. It was a massive problem towards the end, and really the only major gripe against him. Saban was never going to retire on a set timetable of, say, “three more years” where such a HCIW model would have worked. He’s too attached to the game and was always going to go out when he felt he couldn’t do it any more at the level he saw fit. And that’s what he did, simple as that.
The only notable or surprising thing here is OP’s debilitating emotion and lack of intelligence.
OP: “Hey guys! I’m not here to troll, but aren’t y'all like SOOOO mad at Saban”
Bama fans: “we’re not mad at Saban. He earned the right to set his own terms.”
OP: “OH MY frickING GOD YOU IDIOTS! YOU’RE LITERALLY LIKE SO frickING DUMB!! YOU SHOULD BE LIKE SOOOO MAD RIGHT NOW!!!!! ARGH!!!!!”

I really think that Napier was the guy to take over for Saban and he screwed the pooch at Florida. The timing would have been right. And Florida would have gotten Jedd Fisch.
