re: How is bama flipping all these players?

I never said Saban wasn't a disciplinarian. However, as you hear about UGA's suspensions because they actually DO punish them no matter how ridiculous the arrest charge is ( exiting an alley, anyone?), then I have never had any cause to really say that UGA doesn't follow through on their discipline policies. Regardless, I am no bible-thumper, and I couldn't care less that Richt is really into his religion. However, I really do like the fact that he is genuinely into watching his guys grow up. I enjoy that his family shares in his triumphs and losses on the field. I appreciate that when asked to coach PItt a year or two before UGA, he asked his wife whether she could see them being happy there for years to come. He declined it when they were honest with themselves that they would not be, and it would only be a stopover. Richt and Saban are two very different people and coaches. Recruits may very well choose one of the other because of those differences, and that is fine with me. However, you are being disingenuous with yourself if you truly think that Saban is anything but a highly motivated football coach who when everything is said and done can only truly equate triumph in life with the results on the field and in the bank account.

And I gave you two specific examples of players he has spoken VERY highly of this year. If you are going to spew bull shite at least try to remember what you said.

How is it spewing BS when just about every documented action in Saban's career speaks to the opposite? Nick Saban hasn't made it past 5 years at any job he has every held. Bama should feel proud. If he doesn't get the itch to leave town in the offseason, he will make a sixth year in Tuscaloosa. Considering that fact, you are right , he actually has been around to see at least one recruited class graduate at every stopover. Well, at least the 10 or so that made it to graduation on scholarship.
