re: Bama fans…are you upset at Saban’s timing?

You are assuming Saban knew he was retiring before the season began.
By his own admission, he was torn between staying or retiring five minutes before the final team meeting.

I believe what Saban said about his retirement, a lot of it, is media-friendly BS. I don't for one second believe Saban decided to retire after a phone call with his wife 5 minutes before a team meeting the same day after he'd been interviewing potential future staff members.
