Interesting thoughts, but I give this a snowball's chance in hell of becoming a reasonable discussion on here.
It's not like he was Mr. America at MSU or did anything worht a shite in Miami. Those two teams don't have a recruiting base like LSU and Bama.
Think about when Saban and Tuberville were playing each other at LSU and Auburn respectively. Tub's thought (and probably still thinks) he was better than Saban and his players bought in. Gus has brought that belief back to Auburn and the end result was a very evenly matched Iron Bowl.
Coaches and teams that are intimidated by the Bama mystique will get destroyed but if you play Bama mano y mano you'll win everytime. They're essentially bullies who crumble when someone stands up to them

What a bunch of BS...
2009 TSIO
2009 Iron Bowl
2009 vs. LSU
2009 BCSCG
2010 vs. Arkansas
2011 BCSCG
2012 vs. LSU
2012 SECCG
2013 vs. Texas A&M
Stand up to 'em and win everytime? I think not...and those are games just off the top of my head...none of those teams were intimidated by us and we didn't crumble in those...

Spurrier Unlocked: Saban is a Great Recruiter, Not a Great Coach
As for Saban, it doesn't matter what anyone on here thinks, me included...you can argue all day long...but after he retires, even if he doesn't win another championship, he'll still be inducted in the College Football Hall of Fame and he'll still go down in history as one of the best of all time. In the poll era, he has 4 national championships (ranking him behind only Bear Bryant and Bernie Bierman, I think)...only coach to get consensus national championships at 2 different schools...and I think, along with the Bear, only the second coach to win an SEC championship at 2 different schools. Great recruiter/not a great coach? Doesn't matter in the long run...
