Oh yeah,
Saban has never had a Tebow or Jones to lead one of his college teams. It's much easier to win when one has superman leading things among boys. It's quite astonishing that Saban has won as much as he has with QB's like John Parker Wilson, Greg McElroy, AJ McCarron, and Blake Sims. Just typing that Bama QB list makes my jaw drop to the floor in disbelief. 3 National Titles with those QB's during one of the most compeditive times in SEC football. Wow!!!! kudos to Saban for all that.....

The fact Saban has been very successful with average QB's behind center says a bunch. More than not, it takes having a great QB to win titles in CFB. Having QB's like Matt Leinart, Vince Young, Tim Tebow, Cam Newton, and Cardale Jones complete the ingredients for a National title team. Meyer should know this fact because he's had some of these QB's during this era. Kudos to Meyer for having a nice eye for QB talent though. Oh yeah, he didn't recruit any of those guys to his programs. Did he? Think they were already there and ready to go. One has to ask then. Could an average coach win with Tebow and Jones type QB's behind center too? Well.... I guess we have a answer to that very question. Chizk won with Cam Newton, didn't he?

So AJ McCarron wasn't a great qb?
