Again, Saban has to be the best who ever lived so that the praise that is unconditionally lavished upon him is justified. Where you got academics from is a feat of mental gymnastics the envy of all the world.
So which way do you suggest Alabama fans be? You guys and other rival fanbases were giving Alabama fans utter hell for being overly critical of our head coaches just a few short years ago. Now we treat them great and you find fault with that too. If it's not that, it's the ridiculous notion that Bama fans are "delusional" for expecting to compete regularly for championships. I can't even begin to count how many rival fanbases called Bama fans "delusional" and lectured us about our "unrealistic expectations" for thinking we could do better at head coach than Mike Shula and his 26-23 record. Many of you laughed in our faces at the suggestion that Saban would even give the Alabama program the time of day. Bama insiders were laughed at when they suggested that Bama was holding out for Saban and that he was indeed interested. 47 wins in 4 seasons later I guess those Alabama fans weren't so "delusional" after all were they?

Good lord, there is a bunch of shite in this thread.
Let me answer some questions here:
Q - Why do Bama fans pump up Saban's tenure at LSU?
A - Because they are insecure about their team regaining the form they had under Bear Bryant, even though most of them don't even remember the Bryant era.
Q - Why are LSU fans obsessed with Saban?
A - Because he is a great coach that used to be at LSU and now is at Alabama. That means that LSU has to play Saban ever year and sometimes TWICE a year.
Q - Why do LSU fans want understanding from Alabama fans?
A - Because LSU has not been as good as Bama historically, and LSU fans feel insecure about this.
Q - Why do both fan bases tend toward insecurity so much?
A - Southern exceptionalism. Generally the rest of the country is civilized, except for the South where the populace is less educated and more rural.
Why are these issues so hard to undertstand?
