re: Is Saban the best at getting the most out of his players?

I think he probably would be great with bad talent. There comes a point where you can only get so much production out of college kids no matter how talented they are. You only have so much time to work with them, and egos come into play. A lot of people thought Carroll didn't get the most out of his players at USC. Now, he is one of the best coaches in the NFL.
