If Saban left tomorrow, but we stayed relevant and had multiple successful seasons including a couple of Title runs over the next 5-6 years, I'd be crazy to deny that his time here at Alabama had anything to do with it.
You say that now but I guarantee you'd want to defend your new coach and not minimize his actually, you know, coaching the team as the predominant factor.

You're probably right, but I'd be wrong.
I'm not at all taking anything away from the coaching job Miles has done. I think he's a great coach and he's done a fine job at LSU both coaching and recruiting.
I do however think that OP is right, in that LSU might not have even been able to get a coach like Les Miles to consider coming there without Saban's success. He took LSU from a team that wasn't necessarily a top-tier program to a destination job.
National Championships do that.
