I mean damn do we have to be the leader/innovator in everything?


Saban got caught on defending the hurry up offense and early signing day, and quickly and decisively made changes to fix both. I'd even go so far as to say that we really have had 2 separate dynasties because of how much our playing style has changed. 2008-2012 and 2015-present.

Otherwise we have been ahead of the curve on pretty much everything. Continuing to embrace change despite being so successful is why Saban became tGOAT. Most people who experience success become very set in the ways that brought them that success.

What's wild to me is that Saban is resistant to change about a lot of things, as evidenced by his negative comments on the lack of defense in the modern game, the uncertainty of the transfer portal, and other issues. It's just that he's so practical, he can recognize when something is happening despite him wishing it wouldn't.

He's not being innovative because he seeks it out, but he just recognizes when something is inevitable and decides that if it's happening anyway, he might as well be the best at it.

It's incredible.
