Saban's success is not related to X's & O's, Jamal's and Javaughantay's, or 5 star

studded rosters. His 7 NC's haven't been reliant on having the very best assistant's that can be had. The reason Saban's extreme level of achievement can't simply be replicated at will by other coaches is because it's fricking hard.

It's hard to have discipline and teach that to little baby children that play football. It's hard to teach players to sacrifice their own glory for the benefit of the team.

It's not easy to create personalities that, when facing failure, try harder and harder until they succeed instead of just opting out of their lives and opting out on the team.

And he has a short amount of time to do this in. Changing the whole modern mindset of me, me, me that most all teens have in modern times to a what can I do to help all my teammates attitude, in just a few short years, is almost miraculous.

He is not and never has been an extremely gifted X's and O's tactition. He has always been above average at defensive strategies but that alone does not equate to an overall brilliant coaching ability.

Many teams have great players and tons of them. Take the losers in Georgia, for example. Very talented players for decades and decades and decades but they all already have or get infected by that 'ole gangster attitude when they sign up to play for the Bulldogs.

Instead of football, things like dancing on the sidelines while singing about masturbating on women's backs is more important to them than winning games. The whole team rushing the field and trying to start fights are more important than winning games because they feel it makes them look like men.

To sum it up, there will never be another Saban because coaches just don't care enough. Saban is a relic from another era where being responsible and reliable and trustworthy and being intent on having things done right or else is very important to him. He has a unique ability to transfer that mindset to players and have them accept it.
