Did Saban stay?

Did he return to LSU?

I really think that LSU owes its sustained high level of football to Bama to some degree, as does Bama to LSU.

Rightfully or wrongfully feeling jilted and then betrayed by CNS was a primer for the rivalry. It drove competition in all areas. The competitiveness was at an all time high in 2011. The way that season played out and each year after has supercharged the game for many.

Fans can say what they want, but it is most certainly a rivalry game to players, coaches and staffs.

Saban still does well at Bama, but I think overall they are better for having LSU and Auburn push them.

Without Bama (specifically with Saban), I'm not sure LSU sustains the intensity and competitiveness of the 2000s this deep into the 2010s.

Saban was just getting it going when he left LSU
Biggest thing Saban did was keep talent at LSU and showed those guys you would win a title at LSU
That continues to pay dividends and the overall facility upgrades he demanded but everyone can do that with sec money flowing in
With Saban at least 5 titles

During the bear era things were different with player roster management
What if bear arrives in Arkansas and takes that job and never makes it to bama

I’ll also add that Nick Saban became a better coach at bama because he got rid of the NFL thing and became totally focused on college football for the rest of his career
