re: Saban, who hates Bama & cant wait to leave, turned down 6 NFL jobs in offseason

Bama gives him whatever he wants

It's called being committed to winning while fostering and growing the established winning culture. It would be different if there was no justification for his requests. Everything he's requested that has been provided has provided tangible return on investment.

why leave even if he doesn't care for it

b/c he could go to any school in the country (save maybe OSU) and get whatever he wants there too. he's got options at any given time, but he's developed relationships and a life in Alabama for himself and his family.

(and, yes, he could have contacted LSU during your "search" and said "I'll take the job for $X" and you guys would have pulled every muscle in your body trying to say yes fast enough)

The point is he is a complete control freak and no where will he have the control he has at Bama.He can literally get away with murder at that program
