I mean, Barry Fricking Switzer was able to win a Super Bowl.
I guess that salary cap really is a big equalizer.

He picked Daunte Culpepper over Brees

Requires you to be around trash like Johnny Manziel and Myles Garrett

He quit the Dolphins because their medical staff made him take Culpepper over Brees.
But you already knew that so keep trolling.

Only Bama fans believe that dumb shite. It’s revisionist history made up by Saban to save face because he passed on a HOFer at the most critical position

And when he quit his first call was to Skip Bertman to tell him he wanted to be back in Louisiana and the head coach of LSU.
But you already know that.

Apples and oranges. One coach took over a franchise that had won two Super Bowls in the last three seasons, and would have threepeated if the 49ers hadn't defeated them in the NFC Championship Game the season before Switzer took over.
The other coach took over a Miami Dolphins franchise that had been in shambles for years.

Belichik didn't set the world on fire his first season either. Saban didn't get fired, it's pretty clear that Mrs. Lord Saban preferred the life of a college coach's wife. And as they say, "when mama ain't happy ain't nobody happy ".

Because the HC isn’t in charge of his own roster.

Saban tried to be a complete autocrat with The Dolphins like he is at Bama. His approach flew like a lead balloon in Miami. He quickly lost support within the organization.

Because you touch yourself at night.

I could've coached that Dallas team to a SB

Short coaches don't have success in the NFL??

1. Switzer walked into a situation that was fairly well stacked for success. Jimmy Johnson didn't leave the cupboard very bare. Basically, Switzer's teams were slowly getting worse despite winning a Super Bowl. They were definitely declining. I think Jerry Jones saw the handwriting on the wall. I consider this situation fairly analgous to when Larry Coker was named coach at Miami and went undefeated during his first year. That doesn't mean he was the best college coach.
2. Saban narrowly missed the playoffs his first year. The second year, the defense was great but the offense was pretty bad. Let's put it this way... Cleo Lemon was his best choice at QB during the last half of his second season. I'm fairly confident that if the Dolphins had actually signed Brees, his overall pro record would have been quite different. IMHO QB play is much more important for success at the pro level than the college level.
Anyway, just my two cents worth. If Saban hadn't gone to Miami, 3 or 4 of Bama's national championships the last few years probably would have occurred at LSU.

They were friends with Brees and didn't want to see the same thing happen to him as what happened to Tua.

He makes his by being a phenom in recruiting, fundamentals and REC.
You dont get to recruit the draft stock in the NFL.
Most NFL players dont need to be taught fundamentals. Coaches in the NFL are separated by their ability to X & O.
The REC dont have nothing on the Patriots Zebra Club.
