Saban is excellent at spotting talent, coaching or players.

Considering he turned down Bama to stay at Arkansas how bad must things have gotten for him to leave under Bert?

I heard he was upset with Bert that some of his offensive linemen tried to knock on his door but refused to open the door. This was after an argument between the two.

Bert tried to put the blame on Sam and said that he tried to keep him here. I don't know if it had to do with the recruiting visit with an offensive lineman that Bert skipped out on to go to Vegas. But apparently Sam was upset as he explained to this recruit as to why Bert didn't show up and that recruit ended up as a four year starter at an SEC school.

I believe Sam had issues with recruiting as Bert didn't show up at these recruiting visits which could have hurt Sam's reputation. Bert is an obnoxious slob who didn't invest his time in the program unless it was Jim Beam. Sam had enough of his immature bullshite and left.
