Agree completely. The fact that he is the best in the game right and has been there 10 years just makes weirdos think that people are leaving BECAUSE of saban.

Hell I'm quite sure that in Richt's 15 years here there were plenty of coaches that came and went during that time, but nobody claims richt ran them off.

It's just a dumb argument to make.

Exactly!

Saban/Alabama are not the evil empire causing other SEC teams to lose multiple games every year. Alabama has no impact on how a HC evaluates his talent, develops the talent, prepares for games, manages his roster, hires his staff, or how a coach executes his game plan and calls plays for his team.

It is ludicrous to accuse Saban/Alabama for deficiencies with multiple SEC head coaches over the last 10 yrs.

Saban didn't bring on Meyer's health condition causing his team to lose to LSU/MSU/USCe/FSU in 2010. Saban didn't put a stubborn streak in Les Miles where he wouldn't evolve his offense for years on end. And he didn't cause Gus Malzhan to rotate QBs like an idiot in the opener vs Clemson and then go on to call numerous boneheaded plays like the twirly bird, and use his FB as a QB on 4th down in the IB.
